Ok, for a science fair project I did the light color preferences of crickets. I now have to explain my results and I cant find the reason for some of them.
What I found after averaging everything together, was that yellow was the most popular color, red was second, and blue was last. Any idea why it was yellow? You would think they would choose blue, because it most replicates night, which is when they come out
Also, on the side, I found that they were most active in red. More often the crickets in red were hopping around and eating. In all the other sections, the crickets mostly just sat there, sometimes on the sponge. Another interesting thing I found that I would find more in yellow that were dead, where as most the times none were dead in blue.
Any reasons for these?
