1. **State the problem:** We need to find the displacement and the distance traveled by the iguana between 3 seconds and 6 seconds based on its position-time graph.
2. **Recall definitions:**
- Displacement is the change in position, calculated as final position minus initial position.
- Distance traveled is the total length of the path covered, regardless of direction.
3. **Identify positions from the graph:**
- At $t=3$ seconds, position $x=6$ meters.
- At $t=5$ seconds, position remains $6$ meters (no movement).
- At $t=6$ seconds, position $x=0$ meters.
4. **Calculate displacement:**
$$\text{Displacement} = x_{6s} - x_{3s} = 0 - 6 = -6 \text{ meters}$$
This means the iguana moved 6 meters backward from 3 s to 6 s.
5. **Calculate distance traveled:**
- From 3 s to 5 s, the iguana stays at 6 meters, so distance is 0.
- From 5 s to 6 s, it moves from 6 meters to 0 meters, so distance is $|0 - 6| = 6$ meters.
Total distance traveled between 3 s and 6 s is:
$$0 + 6 = 6 \text{ meters}$$
**Final answers:**
- Displacement: $-6$ meters
- Distance traveled: $6$ meters
