    This experiment had the purpose of testing temperature for bean and pea seed germination. 100 beans were taken and split into four groups of 25. Each Group of 25 beans was folded inside a damp paper towel. Two of the damp paper towels, with the beans inside, were put in a plastic bag and then moved to a warm place and the other two paper towels were put in a plastic bag and then moved to a cold room. The same process was repeated for the peas. It was hypothesized that the beans and peas that were put in the warm room would germinate fastest. When the seeds were taken out of the rooms for examination one week later all 25 of the beans that were in the warm room, in both rep one and rep two had germinated. As for the peas in the warm room, 15 of the 25 peas had germinated in rep one and in rep two 8 of the 25 peas had germinated. None of the beans and peas in the cold room had germinated at all in the first week. The second week the remaining 7 peas for rep one in the warm room had germinated and the remaining 10 peas from rep two in the warm room had germinated. In the cold room for the second week none of the beans had germinated. All 25 of the peas in the cold room, in reps one and two finally germinated in week two. The data shows that beans germinate in a warm room and peas tolerate warm temperatures, but germinate best in colder temperatures. Beans have a greater success rate of germinating in a warm environment then peas do, but peas have a greater success rate of germinating in a cold room.…

    Bread Mold Imrad

    The materials needed to conduct this experiment are six small squares of bread, a container of milk, four small Ziploc bags, a thermometer, a phone to record data and a heat lamp. The container of milk will be used for residue on the inside of two of the plastic bags. The heat lamp will be used to generate heat onto the bread towards the possibility of mold. The thermometer is used to measure the heat that the heat lamp is producing; this is to make sure it does not get too hot. The thermometer, milk, and heat lamp are part of the independent variables. The dependent variable is the amount of mold that grows. The experimenter should begin this experiment by organizing their materials so that they are all in front of he/she. Start by opening one of the plastic bags. Over a sink, pour a small amount of milk into the bag, close it then make sure the inside is completely covered in milk residue. Then pour the milk out into the sink. Repeat this process with another bag. Carefully place a piece of bread in each of the milk-saturated bags and secure. Put these bags aside and grab the other two clean plastic bags. Put a piece of bread in each of them and close it. The two extra pieces of bread with be used without a bag, this is the control group. Next find a safe location to keep the bags of bread for the experiment, away from possible culprets such as mice. Once the location is decided, plug in the heat lamp and angle it towards the surface where the bread will sit. The head of the heat lamp should not be anymore than ten inches away from the bags of bread. After the heat lamp is situated, place a bag with milk-residue, a bag with only bread, and a single piece of bread under the heat lamp. Put the other two bags and the other single piece of bread away from the heat lamp, out of the light. Record the data of the bread at the same time everyday for as long until mold…

    The two (2) trials tested with scid liquids both had a pH value of 3 when diluted with water. This proves that not only do acidic solutions affect the growth of seeds but also the growth and variation of mold. Overall this experiment was very beneficial and can be used in further research done on the subject of seed germination. This experiment can help scientists, farmers, and students study and compare the effect that “acid rain” has on a small scale to then later apply this research in everyday…

Wineries can use the tangible cues of their physical design and the interior and exterior attributes of a winery and its environs for visitors and customers to assess levels of satisfaction, before, during and after consumption. An example of how the servicescape may affect satisfaction before consumption is through cues such as visual and virtual images of winery layout, external design and car parks. Although the potential significance of the environment in which the wine tourism experience occurs is seen as significant for the nature of that experience the role of the servicescape has received only passing acknowledgement suggest that the physical evidence of a service, or servicescape offers tangible communication about the service provided.
