Names and Movements of Snakes during Trials
| Name of snake | Species name | Common name | Direction of movement |
|---|---|---|---|
| Glory | <em>Acanthophis antarcticus</em> | common death adder | away from sound |
| Bitey Boy | <em>Aspidites ramsayi</em> | woma python | toward sound |
| Boss | <em>Oxyuranus scutellatus</em> | coastal taipan | away from sound |
Biologists Christina Zdenek, Damian Candusso, and their team exposed various snakes to airborne sound and recorded whether they moved toward or away from the sound. The table shows the results for three of the snakes observed in the study. Based on the table, a student concludes that Glory and Boss behaved similarly in the sound trials.
