Why is it useful? This article covers specifically the relationship between emersion and growth, and notes that feeding access does seem to show a signifigant difference in growth like emersion does, which will help support my results of no significance.
What hypothesis do they test? Emersion rates and prey access effect the growth rates of Nucella Lamallosa.
Why do they test this hypothesis? To determine if the interdial exposure of nucella lamellosa explains the difference in size between snails who live of beahces with tides and snails that live constantly in the water.
Why is this hypothesis relevant to your research?It provides information regarding the no significance between being knocked off barnacles one each day and the the control group that has access to prey 24/7.

Why is it useful? This article outlines that certain water conditions may coss loss of shell weight, but therefore more than likely in a controlled experiment as took place in data i received, that water condition alone would not cause the shell to have varying growth rates, only possibly lose shell weight, but even this would be at a controlled rate across the expieriment as water ph was controlled the same throughout this experiment.
What hypothesis do they test? Elevatee C02 levels effect shell weight over time.
Why do they test this hypothesis? To determine if increased Co2 levels as may be seen in the future will exacting a negative cost on sea life development and or growth.
Why is this hypothesis relevant to your research?
In brings in valueable information about the possible variable effect of water condition on the outcomes I am observing in my data.

Why is it useful? This article outlines that drilling rates are the same for Nucella Lamellosa regardless of size, but that tissue weight consumption is positively related to size, which may account for the fact that a minor difference exists in the shells weight growths between the knocked off and control, but no signficant different exists. Maybe there was a larger starting point in one group, i need to look into this.
What hypothesis do they test? Drilling and Consumption rates of Nucella Lamellosa are effected by snail size.
Why do they test this hypothesis? To determine if the feeding rates of nucella lamelossa could be configured in a cost benefit analysis regarding changes in feeding habbits to size and vice versa.
Why is this hypothesis relevant to your research?
It provides possible insight into the slight yet not significant differences found in my data analysis, which I may now be able to outline in my discussion as caused by beginning size differences, rather than rate to growth differences.

Why isn’t it useful? This article focuses on Nucella Lamellosa reactions to predators, which has nothing to do with my research.
What hypothesis do they test? Nucella Lamellosa's natural reactions to predators will not be effected by the introduction of similar invasive predators.
Why do they test this hypothesis?To determine if the introduction of an ivasive predator could drastically effect Nucella Lamelossa populations.
Why isn’t this hypothesis relevant to your research? This hypothesis has nothing to do with prey exposure to feeding rates, or growth rates.
