To calculate the average weights of the two rabbit breed groups, sum the weights of each breed and divide by the number of rabbits in that breed group. For example, if Breed A weights are 3 kg, 4 kg, and 5 kg, the average would be (3+4+5)/3 = 4 kg. Factors that could contribute to different weights within breeds include genetics, diet, age, and overall health or environmental conditions. To track and find the growth rate of the two rabbit breeds during an investigation, I would establish a regular schedule to weigh the rabbits weekly or bi-weekly, record the data, and calculate growth rates by comparing their weights over time to see how much they gain per week or month.
In three to five sentences, 1) calculate the average weights of the two rabbit breed groups, 2) describe some factors that could contribute to the different weights seen within breeds, and 3) describe how you would track and find the growth rate of the two rabbit breeds during an investigation.
