Random walk hypothesis

(1) What is the hypothesis of this paper and where did you find it? The hypothesis of this paper predicts if low-intensity electric and magnetic fields (EMF) are a method of sensory transduction, then it is expected that that EMF can evoke brain potentials like other sensory modalities. This hypothesis can be found at the end of the Abstract and at the end of the second to last paragraph in the Introduction. (2) Is the writer’s voice passive or active and does he appear in the text? If the…

areas, (Nores et al., 2013). The primary pollinator of bougainvilleas is the bee, but other weather factors such as wind can affect pollination in bougainvilleas. The hypothesis of this experiment is that the weather in which a bougainvillea is, will affect how many pollinators the plant will encounter on a given day. The null hypothesis is that the weather has no effect on the amount of pollinators that visit the bougainvillea encounters. The reason these questions are important is because they…

first is that as low tide gets closer, the birds become further away and thus harder to see. This variable may have been influenced by the amount of visibility and thus a more powerful spotting scope is recommended for future studies. The second hypothesis is that as the birds migrated, there were less present and therefore it took a quicker amount of time to count the amount of birds and thus there might be a relation between the birds migrating and quicker sampling times which could have been…

Postings throughout the University are both symbolic of regulations and culture. Varying areas of the University have different rules around these positing that reflect subculture. Due to the numerous subcultures around campus, I chose to focus my observations in Vilas Hall. I visited the fifth floor of Vilas during the morning business hours. In particular, this floor has a combination of both faculty offices and research areas. When observing the atmosphere of the fifth floor, I came across…

Psychology studies the human mind and human behaviors and responses to different situations, the scientific method is a bit longer, but it's generally a procedure that involves observation, measuring and experimenting, along with formulating a hypothesis. Critical thinking is more like having a bigger view of any situation,…

· This experiment took place at Washington State University in Tri-Cities in the Innovation Center building. Furthermore, this experiment test how stress affects glucose levels in the zebrafish. Therefore, the whole class shared the same control group. The fish stayed in a fish tank not exposed to any of the stimuli used by the class to cause stress. With this in mind, when the zebrafish are tested for glucose levels, their levels would be near normal. In addition, the experimental group…

the data collected from the experiment that was conducted, the presence of agricultural runoff is harmful to an elodea plant. Although the rate of growth was only minorly affected, the harsh chemicals in the solution killed the plants. The null hypothesis cannot be rejected since the Chi-square value, 3.34, is less than the critical value of 7.81, as can be seen in Table 1. Additionally in Figure 1, the differences in the height of the plants are trivial, for they are only off by a few…

The scientific method of inquiry has five main steps that include, stating the problem, formulating the hypothesis, collecting the data by observing and experimenting, interpreting these data, and drawing conclusions (NSRL Rochester, 2015). In the criminal justice field it would generally commence as an inductive process and cases are used to illustrate the application of the scientific method to criminal investigation (Osterburg, 1981). The scientific method can be applied to criminal justice…

Analysis: There are several instances where the number of pillbugs in the light are equal to the number of pillbugs in the dark. It’s difficult to decipher a pattern in the data. The pillbugs seem very indecisive and continuously move between chambers. However, if one disregards the data where the number in light and dark are equal, there are three times where the amount in light is higher and only two times where the amount in dark is higher. Conclusion: In conclusion, there is not enough data…

The question investigated in this experiment was how does the sow bug’s preference of habitat affect the concentration and distribution of the organisms. The purpose of this investigation was to decipher what habitats these organisms prefer to live in and how it would affect their population density. This was tested by a simple experimental design with four petri dishes that each represented a different environment. The control treatment was the dish with just dirt while the other habitats…
