The building is an ancient factory that has rusted walls, holes…

Based on the results I got, the smaller the animal was the lower the mean LDH activity was. Another factor that can affect the LDH levels in a species could be where the animals live. Lizard-fish, which had the highest mean LDH activity, tend to live in shallow and deep waters all around. They like to burry themselves in sand or mud on the bottom and not move until prey comes along. My group’s hypothesis was incorrect, croaker fish did not have the highest LDH activity. Lizard-fish and croaker’s…

While the goal of the goldfish lab was to teach the subject how to jump, this objective was unachieved, resulting in the inability to have our fish learn the trick.

The fish only has a memory that lasts 3 seconds; however, the task took longer than 3 seconds to complete, resulting in the incapability of performing the jump. Also,…
