Slater Study

Data Tables and Observation: Fill out the data sheet (below) for the experiment and submit with this form. Recording data carefully

To make the results of the experiment valid four variables to take into account are if the freezer is the same temperature for both tests, the water is the same water just different temperatures, the ice cube trays are the same size, and finally both trays are in the freezer for the same amount of time.

Limpets (Patella vulgate) live in algae rich environments on rocky shores. They feed on the algae and try to defend areas where algae grow against other limpets and other species that are competing for the food source (e.g barnacles and mussels). Limpet shells

The wetlands are an amazing part of the pinelands. They prevent pollution from entering the lakes as well as preventing floods. This is a major part of the safety of the Pine Barrens. This is where the endangered Pine Barrens tree frog lives. On a clear night you can hear these frogs a mile away. They hang out on reeds and trees near the water. This forest is home to many other animals. For instance, there are cranes, water snake, turtles, salamanders, small pickerel and bass, and other frogs like spring peepers. The water snakes are usually mistaken for poisonous water moccasins, which do not live in New Jersey. Wetlands are usually near lake edges, stream edges, or bogs and swamps.

3: put each candy into different cups of water and make sure their all the same temperature in the water

Mix each one with a glass rod and always make sure to wipe the glass rod after each use.

7. Now perform two trials of test with one bag of frozen popcorn kernels and one bag of room temperature popcorn. It is important to record the data off of each trial separately.

Taking ice cream outside on a warm day and then on a cold to see if warm weather affects the melting of ice cream would be the experimental approach.

Cepaea nemoralis, more common known as grove snail is one of the most abundant specie of land snail. It is native from west and north to central Europe but has later been introduced to North America and New Zealand (Cain & Sheppard 1953). Grove snails are highly adaptable to a various type of habitats, they can be found in open wood, shrubs, highlands, various types of forest and even urban conditions like roadsides. They were also located at 1800 meters altitude on the Pyrenees (Schultes n.d.).

I started with controlling my experiment environment. It was in a still kitchen, with no appliances running to minimize humidity and control the room temperature. I then broke my ice cube tray and finding cubes that weight .10grams. I set up my timer for each station. I put three-.10gram ice cubes in a identical contained on top of the pre measured ½ teaspoon of sugar, salt and baking soda, then I hit start on the timer. When the timer hit 15 minutes I picked up each ice cube and put it on another dry identical dish. I then measured the melted liquid, followed by measuring the melted ice cube alone. I repeated this three times to get an average.

In Week Three through Week Eight, you conduct scientific experiments in an online lab environment. The content of the labs vary with each week but the structure remains the same. This week, review your Week Three lab instructions and assignment to become acquainted with the essential elements of each lab. You are not required to complete the actual lab this week, but rather to locate various pieces of information about the labs to help prepare for completion of the labs in Week Three through Week Eight.

For this experiment, there is several materials needed to have a successful lab experiment. This includes the basic utensils such as the datasheets, pencil, and a notepad to add additional notes. Following the list of materials, you will need three bottles to collect sampling water

4.Measure 35mL of warm water and add them into each of the 4 test tubes at about roughly the same time. It is essential that the water is warm. Do not seal the test tube.

First get your 4 pictures. We found these at www.exploratorium.edu. Then you will need a pink and green see through clipboard that is 8.5 by 11 inches. Before you start the experiment you need to have a clean room. Next find four twelve year olds, two boys, two girls. Then you need to collect the rest of the materials.

Label the 3 test tubes with your initials and number each 1,2, and 3. (This allows for them to be distinguished)
