Real Blubber

Blubber is the fat on an animal often found in colder climates that keeps its internal body temperature stable. By experimenting with multiple different models of handmade blubber, it was discovered that using petroleum jelly, tin foil, and playdough got the best results. It was originally believed that Crisco would work the best because of its thickness and texture, but in reality, the temperature went down on average 7.75 degrees Celsius each time which was too much from our original temperature that fell in the early 20’s. The second design of lard and a balloon worked even worse than the original, prompting us to stop experimenting almost right away because the temperature fell to an average of 8 degrees Celsius which is too cold to be healthy and not die or get sick.
With the use of our make-shift blubber, any animal could survive in the extreme cold. However real blubber found on an animal is an example of Stimulus and response, but also homeostasis. The stimulus is the experiment was the ice water, but in real life, it would be the extreme winds and temperatures. The response most likely took time and over multiple generations of that species to properly evolve to fit their
