Communicating in Biology
Communication in Biology
1.3
Communication in Biology
Table
Used to record and present the data
Used to organize data systematically and make the data comparison become easy
The headings in the table consist of the manipulated variable and the responding variable with the respective unit
The manipulated variable is placed in the column on the left side
The responding variable is placed in the column on the right side
Graph
To shows the relationship between the manipulated variable and responding variable
There are several types of graphs such as line graphs, bar charts and histograms
Methods to Draw Graph
Line Graph
The responding variable is represented by the vertical axis (y-axis) and the manipulated variable is represented by the horizontal axis (x-axis)
The scaling on the axis must be uniform
Mark the points with an appropriate symbol such as ‘x’
Title the graph: “Graph (responding variable) versus (manipulated variable)”
Bar Graph
Draw two axes, the horizontal axis/X to represent the manipulated variable and the vertical axis/Y to represent the responding variable
Each width of the bar needs to be uniform
The bar height depends on the frequency of the data
Bar charts are used to make comparisons between two or more items at a time
Histogram
Draw two axes where the horizontal axis/X represents the data that has been divided into groups according to the appropriate range while the vertical axis/Y shows the frequency
Insert labels and units on the axes
The size or width of the bars must be the same for all class gap with no spacing between the bars
Biological Drawings
Give an accurate representation of an observed specimen
Characteristics of biological drawings:
Large and accurate; use a sharp pencil and not a colour pencil or pen
Not shaded artistically
Lines drawn must be clear, clean and continuous
Do not use a ruler to draw the outline of a specimen
Drawings must be labelled
Label lines must point to the correct structure, no arrowheads, must be straight and not cross each other
Drawings must have titles
Each structure in the drawing must be placed in the correct position, and its size should be proportionate to the rest of the structures
Consists of plan drawing and detailed drawing
Must include the magnification factor:
\(\dfrac{\text{The length of drawing in cm}}{\text{The length of specimen in cm}}\)
Plane
The plane refers to a flat surface of shadow passing through the body
Consists of:
sagittal plane (divides the body into right and left parts)
frontal plane (divides the body into frontal and rear parts)
horizontal plane (divides the body into upper and lower parts)
Section
Cross section divides the structure into upper and lower portions horizontally while longitudinal section divides the structure into left and right portions
Direction
Direction consists of anterior, ventral, posterior, dorsal, superior, inferior and lateral
