Assignment Help:

Evidence 

Similarities between 79° and 70°, eg

  • Feeding activity continuous / continues for 24 hours during polar day (summer months)
  • feeding activity more intense in summer than in winter
  • during times with a definite twilight period, (spring and autumn) feeding activity is

Predominantly diurnal

  • during times with a definite twilight period, (spring and autumn) feeding activity is crepuscular (feeds at dawn and dusk).

Differences between temperatures:

At 79° 

  • arrhythmic in summer and winter
  • had less night-time feeding activity in spring and autumn
  • less intense feeding in summer

At 70°,

  • arrhythmic during summer only
  • during the winter showed diurnal patterns / crepuscular activity (feeds at dawn and dusk)
  • had more night-time feeding activity in spring and autumn
  • more intense feeding in summer
