Hey Noodles,

The waterbugs here are not functionally adjusting to seasonal temperature variation - the experiment has one group brought into the laboratory during the winter, thus controlling for the temperature the bugs are exposed to. So, this is not a test of response to seasonal variations but rather a test of the effect of temperature on the bugs.

Hope that helps!
