Evaluation When performing the experiment, the pill bugs were generally unresponsive, and many stayed in the same place throughout the whole experiment. Outside of this, no major problems occurred while performing the experiment. If the experiment were to be performed again, more of the IV (baking soda, rubbing alcohol, etc.) would be added to produce a more pronounced effect on the pill bugs, as most pillbugs did not move at all. The results are mostly trustworthy and accurate, as the data is backed up by the research done prior to the experiment. Conversely, more trials could have been performed as experiments with living organisms tend to need a larger sample size.…
A possible error that could have been made was not doing at least three experiments. If more experiments were done, the information would have been more accurate. Another possible error was only using two liquids. If more than two liquids were used in this experiment, then the information would have also been more accurate. A major error in this experiment was using a different starting temperature for each trial.…
The Morris water maze was large 180 by 60 v centimeter high tank. The tank was filled to a 22 centimeter with water and nontoxic white paint. The maze included a circular platform and it was opaque because it was 3 to 4 centimeter below the surface. The features of the research room was same throughout the experiment and represented visual cues as guidance. The rat was placed in the maze and swam until the platform was found.…

In this unit of my 9th grade Physical Science, we are learning and experiencing with labs. In this week's experiment, my class did the paper towel lab. Here, we tested the quality of three different paper towel brands, Viva, Up&Up, and Bounty. Each lab group was testing for a certain quality of each brand, such as strength and absorbency. Through different experiments, each lab group came to the conclusion that one paper towel brand had more strength or better absorbency than the other two.…
Imagine a whole week without your favorite social media site. In the world live in it is becoming ever so harder to put down the social media. In this deprivation assignment I had to give up snapchat and it was a challenge. I've been starting to have a mental addiction to snapchat in the previous weeks and this assignment gave me a great opportunity to challenge myself. In this experiment It not only gave me a break from snapchat but also a better understanding of Siddhartha’s own journey in Hermann Hesse’s novel Siddhartha (1922).…
The trials were used to show how soap can change the droplets that could be held on the penny. The results of the trial helped me see what happened when I added soap to the water. It tells me whether my hypothesis was correct when I tested it and whether the results can prove my point. After analyzing the data, my hypothesis was correct. I was able to see a trend that the penny was able to hold 40+ droplets of tap water each time, but there were some exceptions, while the penny was able to hold 10+ drops each time.…
My observation will be on the behavior of kids interacting with other kids at the Boone’s playground. I will observe kids around 1pm on Monday. My hypothesis of my observation is that 65% of girls will interact with each other in the playground while only 35% of boys will interact at the Boone’s playground. I came up with this hypothesis because girls usually just sit around and just talk at the playground more than boys and the boys play sports than the girls. I chose this particular setting because of it is was my elementary/middle school and there are a lot of children so it is easier to observe them.…
Conclusion Isopods are one of the crustacean animals in the world. There are more than 10,000 kind of isopods in the world. Some of them live in salt water, some of them sugar water and some live in plain water. Isopods are one of the animals like to stay shadow area like under rock. Fifteen minutes of our experiment, we realized that most of them preferred in the plain water.…
The Demographics of 1998 and What is to Come by Mishayla Moffitt For the first online lab for, Principles of Biology, it was on the demographics of 1998. Demography is the study of human population. This consist of studying the size, composition, and distribution of a population. It also the process of how a population changes.…
1. What were the theoretical propositions of this experiment? In what aspect(s) of human behavior were they interested? What question(s) were they seeking to answer?…
The third question I asked myself was how to estimate the peak of blood alcohol concentration. If the alcohol is drank within a short period of time, this question can be answered by using the first model: t_p1= ln〖k-ln〖k_0 〗 〗/(k-k_0 ) = 1.2217…
Based on his study, what would you conclude about the impact of social structure on social interaction? That even if we are normally one thing we are willing to behave/conform to what we think society is telling us we have to be. We are willing to assimilate within the group or surroundings (based on which side you’re viewing) due to what we perceive our position to be and assume the associated roles/norms that go with it. And sometimes just to maintain our own sanity.…
My topic, which has to do with distinguishing features in composite faces, has been tested in a different situation, with varied results. It started in the 1800s when Sir Francis Dalton projected images over each other to find averages of groups like criminals, soldiers, or those with diseases, and showed them to his colleagues. They all concluded that the composite faces were more attractive than the originals. Another study done on the same aspect was done in the 90s that asked volunteers to rate attractiveness of 60 women, then of their composite face. They rated the face as more attractive than the others.…
Data Analysis The scientific question for this experiment is:” Does the amount of baking soda added to vinegar affect the amount of CO2 produced?” “If more baking soda is added to 50mL of vinegar, then more CO2 gas will be produced,” was the hypothesis. The independent variable was the different amounts of baking soda. Therefore, the dependent variable was the amount of CO2 produced.…
