The idea
A research summary describes one or more related experiments, each with its procedure and results, usually in a table or graph. Read what was done in each before reading the numbers.
In practice
Experiment 1 varies temperature at a fixed light level; experiment 2 varies light at a fixed temperature.
Where people slip
Questions ask about the design as well as the results.
