ScLi16- Identify the purpоse оf discussiоns in scientific аrticles The following is аn excerpt of the study Herbivore effects increаse with latitude across the extent of a foundational seagrass, whose first author is Dr. Justin Campbell (a professor in our bio department). The study addressed the effect of increased consumption of sea grasses by herbivorous fish on seagrass health at different latitudes. Researchers addressed their objective by simulating herbivory by cutting the grass in different amounts. This is part of a paragraph in their discussion: "Our network also reveals that low-latitude meadows are generally more resilient to simulated grazing (mostly severe overgrazing) and that this differential response is driven by increased insolation which promotes plant carbohydrate storage (Fig. 4 and Supplementary Table 9). Thus, across low latitudes, many meadows can utilize ample reserves to replace leaf biomass and consequently display minor shifts in leaf productivity in response to grazing." Which of the following are functions of discussions that are NOT being addressed in the paragraph?
