Wasp Hierarchical Status. In an issue of Discover (Vol. 26, No. 2, pp. 10–11), J. Netting described the research of E. Tibbetts of the University of Arizona in the article, “The Kind of Face Only a Wasp Could Trust.” Tibbetts found that wasps signal their strength and status with the number of black splotches on their yellow faces, with more splotches denoting higher status. Tibbetts decided to see if she could cheat the system. She painted some of the insects’ faces to make their status appear higher or lower than it really was. She then placed the painted wasps with a group of female wasps to see if painting the faces altered their hierarchical status.Was this investigation an observational study or a designed experiment? Justify your answer.
