It is primarily a methodology used to characterize and quantify specific sources of error that contaminate the observed measurement of interesest in order to have future research be more error free. In other words‚ if something has often happened in the past‚ it will likely happen in the future (Lee & Baskerville‚ 2003). In research that is extremely important because once researchers have collected enough data to support their hypothesis‚ they can develop a premise to predict the outcome in similar

Materials & Methods Brook trout blood was used throughout our experiment as our erythrocyte suspension‚ which consisted of ten drops of fish blood in a test tube containing 10mL of 0.7% NaCl. Eleven other solutions‚ (erythritol‚ xylose‚ monacetin‚ diacetin‚ triacetin‚ urea‚ thiourea‚ glycerol‚ ethylene glycol‚ glucose and fructose) all isosmotic but not necessarily isotonic with the cytoplasm of the erythrocyte‚ were combined with a 0.2mL of well-mixed stock suspension were added to 0.27M of each
