Sue is setting up an experiment to test whether fly maggots select a dark or a brightly lit environment. She sets up a chamber in which there is a gradient in light intensity from one end (dark) to the other (brightly lit). The selected experimental hypothesis was: “There will be a large difference between the number of maggots in a dark environment and the number in a brightly illuminated one.” Sue will need to set up a experiment. Which of the following is Sue’s experimental condition? Select one option from the list below.

An experiment is set up to test whether a particular insect prefer a dark or a bright environment. A chamber with a gradient in light intensity from one end (dark) to the other (bright) has been made. The experimental hypothesis is: “There will be a large difference between the number of insect in a dark side and the number in a bright side of the chamber.” Which one could be the three confounding variables? A - Varying humidity across the chamber B - The orientation of the chamber C - The age of the insects D - The non-reflective material from which the chamber is made E - The type of light source used F - Varying temperature across the chamber I was thinking A, E and F but there is something wrong even a,b,c is wrong Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
