Refer to the figure to answer questions 12 through 17.
12. For both the plots with the beetles added and the control plots, state the mean
tree leaf area per plot that the scientists recorded after running the experiment for 18 months.
The mean tree leaf area per plot that the Scientist

13. Compare the trends in mean tree leaf area per plot for both the plots with the beetles added and the
control plots over the 18 months of the experiment.

Figure 2. Mean leaf area per
tree. Initial measurements
were taken before (0 to 2
months) and after (7 to 18
months) beetles were added
to 40 of 80 plants. The light
gray round markers represent
measurements taken of the
control plots, to which beetles
were not added. The black
square markers represent
measurements taken of the
experimental plots, to which
beetles were added.
Measurements were made on
all leaves to calculate the
mean leaf area per plant. Error
bars represent standard error
of the mean.
