Who cann complete this assignment by 1PM TODAY ???

This simple lab provides sound clips (wav files) of silver perch, spotted seatrout, and red drum chorusing aggregations recorded in the May River estuary, SC.

• Save the three sound (wave) files of silver perch, spotted seatrout, and red drum on your computer.

• Download Audacity free software to PC or Mac: https://www.audacityteam.org/download/

• Open each wave file in Audacity, play the sound clip, and review the corresponding spectrogram.

• Answer the following questions for each species: (i) what is the frequency range (Hz) of calling and chorusing observed in the spectrogram; and (ii) can you differentiate individual calls among the chorus?

• Grading rubric: (i) completion and accuracy – 60 points at 10 points/question; (ii) writing – 30 points; (iii) format – 10 points
