It showed me that magnetism does work strongly through the substance of wood. It showed me that wood was less of an obstacle for the magnet than the slime was. The small magnet followed where the horseshoe went, so I was able to drag the small magnet around by moving the horseshoe magnet. This part of the experiment reminded me of why many people hundreds of years ago thought of magnets as magical and mystical things, like a secret power of wizardry because of things like this. This shows the power of magnetic fields. Finally, in Part 5, my very last part, it showed me that there is only magnetic attraction through slime when there is one layer of slime between two magnets, but when there are two layers of slime between them, the magnetic field is lost. This Part 5 proved this part of my hypothesis wrong because I predicted there would still be attraction between the two sections of slime, but when I performed the experiment I observed there being no attraction.
