    The two hypotheses tested during the experiment were the warmer the temperature, the more oxygen will be consumed, and the germinated peas will consume more oxygen than the dry peas. Some conditions that had to remain constant in this experiment were that each vial had to have the same volume to let us know that the volume of the vial wouldn’t affect the respiration rate. Had the volumes been different, the respiration rate might have been affected. Another constant was the 7 minute equilibrium

    The Goal My goal is to find the probability of wining in tic-tac-toe game given that you make the first move. To obtain hypothesis bases on my goal I have to state some conditions and facts on the game. They are: 1) There are 362, 880 ways of placing O’s and X’s. 2) When X make first move, possibility of X winning is 131,184, O winning is 77, 904, and 46, 080 tied games (Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tic-tac-toe). After eliminating rotations and/or reflections of other outcomes, there are

    In this experiment the independent variables were the amount of flies that emerged and the phenotypes of those flies. The hypothesis to be tested was the expected phenotypic ratio of the F2 generation of the unknown true bred cross would be 9:3:3:1. To complete this experiment a culture vial must be made for the flies to inhabit. The flies were then incubated for two weeks to go through a complete life cycle. After two weeks, the flies were obtained and observed under a light microscope to conclude

    Earthworms Lab Report

    The hypothesis was supported because the density of soils with the presence of earthworms had decreased and the pH of the soil changed, becoming increasingly neutral. It was hypothesized that if earthworms are placed into a container of soil, then the pH of the soil will become increasingly neutral and the density of the soil will decrease because the digestive tracts in the worm produce molecules that are natural buffers and because worms aerate the soil, leaving pockets of air in the soil, increasing

    a question: Do different hair colors have different effects on static electricity? 3. Prediction: The color of hair will have different effects on static electricity, one color of hair will produce the highest amount of static electricity. 4. Hypothesis: If you have black hair then there will be a higher effect on static electricity then there would be on blonde, red, or brown hair. 5. Write up your experiment: Materials: 4 latex balloons, 1 permanent marker, 1 clear wall space, 1 notebook, 1

    Abstract In the laboratory, students were to learn the effect of multiple drugs on a frog’s heart rate. The drugs what were used were acetylcholine, epinephrine, pilocarpine, and atropine and acetylcholine. The drugs were applied to the frog’s heart and observations were made on how the drugs affected the frog’s heart rate. The acetylcholine and pilocarpine cause the heart rate to slow down. The epinephrine and the atropine and acetylcholine cause the frog’s heart rate to speed up. The significance

    I. Introduction The purpose of this reaction time experiment was to evaluate reaction time in relation to catching a ruler with one hand. The variables we tested this experiment under are as follows: catch with non-dominant indoors, catch with dominant indoors, and catch with non-dominant while outside, then catch with dominant while outside. Our control was to catch with dominant hand while inside. We chose these variables because we believe there will be a distinct difference between our ability

    3a.The first step of the experimental procedure depicted in Figure 1 is two dolls are positioned in a box and then shown to the toddlers. The second step is a screen or wall is placed in front of the dolls, giving the toddlers no sight of the dolls. The third step is an empty hand emerges. The fourth step is the hand removes a doll from within the box. The fifth step is the screen or wall is removed and then either there is now one doll present which would be the possible outcome, or the two dolls

    To figure out if theories are correct, you have to test things out and see if people made correct assumptions. That is what the scientists did while studying elephant behavior. In the three passages, “Elephants Can Lend A Helping Trunk” by Virginia Morell, “Elephants Know When They Need a Helping Trunk in a Cooperative Task” by Joshua M. Plotnik, and “Elephants Console Each Other” also by Virginia Morell, they all describe the studies of elephants behavior, and come to various conclusions. The scientists

    Disinfectant Lab Report

    Our science experiment was to try and figure out which disinfectant was the most effective on killing bacteria. We chose seven different disinfectants and tested them on gram positive and gram negative bacteria to see which would have the largest zone of inhibition after 23 hours in an incubator at 28 degrees. This experiment taught me a lot of useful things for the future such as what the most effective way of cleaning is. We decided to do this project because we wanted to know if what people used
