Efficient-market hypothesis

The hypothesis being tested in this experiment states that, as a result of the enhanced greenhouse effect, the air in a sealed container with transparent walls becomes warmer when exposed to sunlight. The procedure that was conducted in order to test the greenhouse effect is rather simple and demonstrates significant amounts of information that prove the hypothesis. The experiment involves two glass containers, Mason Jars, each containing an identical amount of soil. The soil is used to…

Fastest Reaction Time Problem or Question: Who has the fastest reaction time in our group? Hypothesis: If Maasilan, Tanveer and I are tested, I think I will have the fastest reaction time. This is because I have the biggest hands in the group, which makes it easier for me to grab the meter stick. I also have good reactions because I play lots of sports that involve catching or throwing. I also have good concentration and focus which helps so that when the person drops the stick, I know when to…

My data supports my hypothesis because the water that is used as a growth solution, with an acidic concentration did not experience any growth. The average of the growth of all of the plants that were given vinegar and water, as a growth solution was zero cm. However, the average…

the scientific method; problem, research, hypothesis, materials, methods, observations, analysis, and conclusion. It is important to follow these steps efficiently and effectively so that mistakes aren’t made when developing your lab report. If you’re not careful while following a step of the scientific method, your analysis can become inaccurate and also show that your evidence is wrong. Most of the common mistakes are made when creating your hypothesis, observations, and conclusion. One common…

The use of stimuli in both experiments allowed for an accurate and credible depiction of brain activity in the subjects. The researchers directly addressed the hypothesis by locating the activation in the MT-MST complex below the calcarine fissure and there is little to no indication in my mind that the results found could be due to an alternative explanation. A possible follow-up study to this experiment would be…

Specific Aims / Statement of Hypotheses Aim 1: To determine the effects of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) on health related quality of life (HRQoL) in adolescents with and without chronic illnesses. Hypothesis: We hypothesize that ACEs, as a precipitating factor, will decrease the quality of life in adolescents regardless of having a chronic illness or not. However, we suspect that there will be a differential effect between the two groups as we expect the presence of ACEs will exacerbate…

The purpose of this investigation was to test the effect of exposure to tobacco smoke on the larval development of Vanessa cardui, commonly known as the Painted Lady. The hypothesis for this experiment was, “if tobacco smoke has a negative effect on the development of Vanessa cardui larvae, then, larvae exposed to tobacco smoke for 15,10, or 5 minutes will display reduced length (cm) compared to control larvae receiving 0 minutes exposure”. To start the experiment, the condiment cups for each…

The primary goal of this research project is to extend our knowledge about the functional role of one of the most basic types of human reactions, the startle reflex. As pointed out earlier, although much is known about the startle reflex, there are clear gaps in our understanding of this ubiquitous human reaction. The most fundamental of these gaps relates to the functional reason humans are startled by intense sensory stimulation. The general assumption is that the startle reaction serves to…

Conducting a short observational, I will watch students and faculty at South College to see if health care students chose to use stairs or an elevator to go to the upper floor classrooms. Tracking if gender, extra weight like books, and whether they are going up or down floors effects the choices they make. Weighting the results and coming up with the percentages to see if health care students chose the healthy option when it comes to stairs or elevators. Stairs Versus Elevator Usage at South…

My observations began at 9:44 on Tuesday morning, I had to be let in first through one door that was locked at all times. I was then brought to the first room that had two infants and one adult in the room. When I stepped into the room I noticed my host teacher was rocking one of the infants and right after I arrived, she put her down to sleep. In addition, I noticed the other infant was sleeping in a swing and later found out that they do not usually let them sleep in the swing. While the…
