Woodlice - Porcellio Scaber Research: Introduction: [The following is summarised from: http://soilbugs.massey.ac.nz/isopoda.php] Common Names: Slaters‚ pill bugs‚ sow bugs‚ woodlice‚ Maori papapa Scientific Name: Arthropoda (Phylum) Crustacea (Class) Isopoda (Order) Oniscoidea (Suborder). Description: Slaters are apart of the Isopoda order‚ meaning they have an equal number of legs. They are also a crustacean‚ but unlike most crustaceans they are terrestrial opposed to marine dwellers

Abstract This experiment analyzes the effects of how temperature affects bacterial and fungus amylase and also discovers the optimum temperature for these enzymes. The amylase was mixed with starch at temperatures of 0℃‚ 37℃‚ 57℃‚ and 90℃. Iodine was added to each mixture and colour changes in each case. Bacteria amylase was found to be effective at 55 0C as the temperature dropped drastically from 4.58℃ to 2.33℃. This shows that the amylase catabolized a lot of starch hence little is left which

Analysis Is a magnet affect by warm or cold temperatures? This experiment showed that if a magnet is cold‚ then it will have more magnetic pull than a warm magnet. The independent variable is the temperature of magnets. The dependent variable is the magnetic pull of magnets. The experimental group is magnets exposed to different temperatures. The control group is the room temperature magnet. The control variables are the amount of time the magnets are exposed to different temperatures‚ the type of magnet

Does Temperature of Kernels Affect Popcorn Yield? Project Design Plan This experiment will attempt to determine if the temperature that popcorn kernels are stored at will affect the amount of un-popped kernels when using a hot air popcorn popper. Popcorn kernels contain moisture inside of them which‚ when heated‚ turns to steam and expands that in turn causes the kernel to explode. Popcorn.org states that loss of moisture content can cause less yield amounts when popping popcorn (popcorn.org‚ 2014)

Data Analysis Does temperature affect the strength of Gorilla Glue? If two pieces of wood are glued together at a 90° angle and one is put in the freezer‚one at room temperature‚ and one heated‚ then the glued wood from the freezer will be stronger. The independent variable was the temperature. The dependent variable was the strength of the glue. Some constant variables were the amount of glue‚ the type of glue‚ and the type of wood used. The experimental group was the temperatures. The control group

manual. The independent variable in this experiment was temperature as it was the effects of temperature that was being measured. The dependent variable were ventilation rates and oxygen consumption as they were being measured. There were 10 fish per treatment level. There were two treatment levels‚ 25 C and 15 C. Ten fish tanks per treatment level were set up‚ the first group of fish tank were filled with spring water and kept at room temperature of 25 C‚ whereas‚ the second group of fish tank were

the heart‚ it increases which makes the left ventricle expand and adapt to a different situation. Due to this‚ the heart can register a higher level of blood and eject it at a faster rate to all living cells and membranes. This increases the heart rate because the movement of blood is faster than the resting heart rate. When performing a strength training exercise‚ the muscles contract allowing blood vessels to pass in and out. This builds the pressure in the body as well as increases the amount of

LABORATORY 3 The Effect of Temperature on the Rate of PNPP Hydrolysis Partners: Shelby Cruickshanks Alexis Williamson Introduction Most of the chemical reactions‚ which occur throughout our bodies‚ would proceed at a much slower rate of reaction without the presence of an enzyme. Cells can not wait for centuries for molecules to break down‚ if they waited for that‚ there would be no way for the organism to obtain energy or in turn survive. This is where biological catalyst comes into
