Match the scale to the question

x

A close-up educational illustration of one frog on a log with a stopwatch labeled “10 min” beside it, and a faded background of many frogs across a wetland crossed out with a small “not proven” label; emphasize that one short observation only supports a claim about that individual frog.

Scale sets the possible answer

In ecology, scale is the level and size of your observation. If you watch one frog for ten minutes, you can learn about that frog’s behavior, but not prove what all frogs in the wetland are doing.
