Dr. Kaylan is an ecologist who studies bird behavior. She sets up an experiment to test which type of food crows are most likely to eat when given a choice between walnuts, corn, and sunflower seeds. To perform her experiment, Dr Kaylan places 3 food bins in an area frequented by crows. She measured how much of each food type is eaten every day for a month/ Based on her results she concludes that crows chose to eat corn more frequently because it has a higher nutritional value. What is a reasonable alternate conclusion can be drawn?
