Pill Bugs Turn Alternation Lab Report Bio Lab 111 Nov. 15‚ 2012 Pill bugs are said to have some sort of turn alternation built in there cognitive functions‚ which causes them to take a zig-zag route rather than going along in a straight line for a long distance (Ono Tomohiro & Takagi Yuika‚ 2006). Distance does not play a factor in the pill bugs making turn alternation even if it is a forced turn‚ pill bugs will still make a zig-zag motion (Kupfermann‚ 1966). The zig-zag motion shows that

This lab felt very “slow” because there was not a lot of action going on. The pill bugs would either walk around in circles or stay put. However‚ it was both fun and annoying when my group tried to put the pill bugs in the chamber and take them out. We had to put a lot of effort to get the pill bugs on to the paint brushes because they would scurry around and it would take a while to find them. Also‚ it was cool to see the pill bugs use their defense mechanism (it only happened once) by going into

The pill bug (commonly referred as rollypollys) is a small‚ segmented land creature that can roll into a tiny ball for protection. Which is classified as a crustacean under the order of Isopoda (Isopoda). The organism is generally characterized by a pair of antennae‚ seven pairs of legs‚ and a segmented body (Isopoda - Slaters). Whenever it is disturbed it usually curls into a ball until there no longer a threat. The typical sowbugs or pillbugs live in moist environments outdoors. This is due to

Food Preferences in the Sow Bug (Porcellio Laevis) Purpose The purpose of this experiment is to determine what kind of food the sow bug prefers; decaying leaves‚ potatoes‚ grapes‚ or sow bug food. Hypothesis If a sow bug is placed in a choice tray‚ and has access to decaying leaves‚ potatoes‚ grapes‚ and sow bug food‚ the sow bug will choose the decaying leaves over its other options. This hypothesis was based on research stating that a sow bug’s main food source is decaying vegetation. This

Problem: Do Pill bugs prefer being in an environment with tight spaces‚ or a more open environment? Hypothesis: If the pill bugs are given a choice of an open environment or one with tight spaces‚ then the pill bugs will respond by going to the environment with tight spaces. Brief Methods We used a Petri dish with 2 circle‚ and an opening connecting the two. We put 10 Pill Bugs in the opening between the two circles‚ and timed them for one minute. This gave them time to choose dish 1 or dish
Premium Experiment Armadillidiidae Woodlouse
Introduction These species are commonly known as pill bugs; they are terrestrial crustaceans that are oval shaped and a little flat. Pill bugs live in gardens‚ fields‚ forests or any region that is moist and are most likely found under rocks. The reason behind as to why isopods prefer a moist area is because they don’t have a good waterproofing cuticle wax‚ which causes them to dry out easily (“Critter Catalog‚" n.d.‚ para. 8). Pill bugs are also known as “roly-polies” because of their ability to
