PLANT GROWTH EXPERIMENT Numerous environmental variables influence plant growth. Three students each planted a seedling of the same genetic variety in the same type of container with equal amounts of soil from the same source. Their goal was to maximize their seedling’s growth by manipulating environmental conditions. Their data are shown below. Plant Seedling Mass (grams) Day 1 Day 30

Evaluation Evaluation Experiment one: This experiment was quite accurate‚ as when it is compared to the manufactures line which is on the same graph‚ we can see that this line is at most only 0.4? different form the manufactures line. This is a percentage difference of approximately 8%‚ using the formula: Difference ? original X 100 This shows that the results were good‚ as 8% is a very small margin of error. The error bars on the graph show that the most inaccurate result was the 60cm result

Nonverbal Experiments Everyone will do Experiment #1 – A Mute Point Choose 3 additional experiments – follow the directions and have fun! 1. A mute point – We will all do this on the same day! You can not talk for one entire day. Document your frustrations‚ your “oops” moments‚ reactions from others‚ and if any new revelations came about from not speaking. Make sure you wear your sign! 2. Disregarding the Norm Go to a crowded public space. Intentionally go against the grain in some

self-regulation is emerged. So‚ where does it all begin? Childhood. Pre-school is a great place to start teaching self-regulation. An experiment that I believe to be a useful demonstration of educating children on their self-regulation is group games that promote leadership skills. Materials Needed for Experiment: • Pilot’s hats Procedure To begin this experiment the marshmallow test must be administered to the kids and the results must be recorded. We then separate the kids into two different

Ballistic pendulum designed experiment Aim: to investigate how the mass of the projectile affects distance on the motion of a wooden block it strikes Hypothesis: the heavier the projectile the further the distance will be covered by the wooden block Variables: variables Identification Manipulation Independent Mass of projectile The four different masses will be used in different combinations Dependent distance Measured using tape measure Controlled 1. Height of retort stand 2. Release angle

Surface Tension Steven Brignol Dr. Payne September 15 Introduction: Water’s ability to stick to itself is surface tension. In this lab we were able to measure and detect surface tension by dropping water‚ drop by drop‚ onto a penny. The quantity of droplets that fit on the penny was impressive. Hypothesis: The detergent will thicken the water making a tighter surface tension. Prediction: If soap increased the surface tension‚ then expansion will happen. Materials: (1) Pipette (2) Water

I don’t think this experiment should be replicated today. The reason being is that the Generation we have today has a different mindset and that the experiment is unethical in my view. In 1961‚ Milgram was able to make the participants agree with the experiment. These results led to people trying out these trails because the participants knew the shock would be painful but not dangerous. With that being said‚ it shows you the mindset of the people during that time. People were laid back and were

the experiment‚ the observational study and the survey. An experiment is a scientific method in which data are collected to be tested to prove a hypothesis using either independent variables in a closed environment or dependent variables in an opened environment. There are two types of experiment‚ the laboratory experiment that is as its name suggests conducted in laboratory and the field experiment conducted in a natural environment. The advocates of positivism support the use of experiment due

BSummary of Brain Asymmetry Introduction In the Brain Asymmetry experiment‚ the independent variable is the construction of the chimeric faces: one has the younger face on the left and the other has the younger face on the right. The dependent variable is the percentage of reports that chimeric face with the younger face on the left looked younger. The group of left-handed subects acted as a control group and helped to rule out the general left-view bias. It is hypothesized that percentage of reports
