The effect of temperature on the rate of maggot movement Research and Rationale This experiment is aiming to analyse the behaviour of maggots when they are exposed to light and the effect of that on their movement rate. Behaviour is the way in which animals respond to external factors is known as behaviour. As animals become bigger their behaviour becomes more complex. This is because larger animals tend to have a more complex nervous and hormonal system. Two of the types of behaviour are called

Is There A Relationship Between Body Temperature and Heart Rate? Statement of Research Question: This study sets out to determine whether there exists a difference in the average body temperature between males and females. Furthermore‚ the study aims to determine whether an increase in heart rate corresponds with an increase in body temperature. Data Collection: The data was obtained from the article “What’s Normal? -- Temperature‚ Gender‚ and Heart Rate” (Shoemaker‚ Allen 1996) as found in

Reaction Rate Coursework Aim To see how the concentration of a reactant affects the rate of reaction‚ in this case sodium thiosulphate and acid. Scientific Background For a reaction to occur‚ the particles of the reactants must be colliding with each other with enough energy‚ the amount of energy needed for the reaction is called activation energy. Activation energy is altered by temperature‚ concentration‚ surface area of and the pressure on the reactants. Stirring the reactants also increases

(i) litmus turns red and then is bleached white. (ii) White precipitate. (i) Non-metal‚ is acid in aqueous solution and a powerful oxidising agent (ii) It forms a small amount of chloride ion in water‚ so gives a positive result for the chloride test.

Do Ads Affect Obesity ’s Rate? Name: Nejoom Taher GGU ID: 0571638 Applied Critical Thinking Research Paragraph Instructor: Natalie Barbera Summer 2013 Abstract Obesity rates have been increasing in the recent years which makes people concern about the reasons of it. Despite the fact‚ that many studies indicate there is no direct correlation between obesity and advertising‚ people continue to believe that

Aim: The rate at which a reaction occurs‚ or takes place‚ is affected by various factors‚ such as the temperature at which the experiment is conducted in‚ the pressure which is given‚ the surface area which is exposed‚ use of catalysts‚ and the concentration. In this investigation‚ I would be investigating the affect of surface area‚ or particle size‚ in the rate at which a reaction occurs. Background Information: The more finely divided the solid is‚ the faster the reaction happens. A powdered

Once Upon a Time by Gabriel OkaraOnce upon a time‚ son‚they used to laugh with their heartsand laugh with their eyes:but now they only laugh with their teeth‚while their ice-block-cold eyessearch behind my shadow.There was a time indeedthey used to shake hands with their hearts:but that’s gone‚ son.Now they shake hands without heartswhile their left hands searchmy empty pockets.‘Feel at home!’ ‘Come again’:they say‚ and when I comeagain and feelat home‚ once‚ twice‚there will be no thrice-for then

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

Biology coursework How does the temperature affect the rate of reaction? Introduction For our experiments‚ I was investigating what affects the rate of reaction. We used Hydrogen peroxide to test the rate of reaction‚ with the temperature of this being our variable that we changed. Hydrogen peroxide is a clear‚ colourless liquid which has various amounts of uses within the laboratory‚ industrial purposes and even in our households. It is mainly used for cleaning products and hair dye but is

that will affect it’s rate. The rate of diffusion will vary depending on the size of the particle. For example‚ a smaller particle will move faster than a large molecule at a given temperature . During reactions‚ when there is more energy‚ the reaction will take place at a faster rate. An increase in temperature will result in and increase in the amount of energy available‚ therefore the particle will move faster and the rate of diffusion will increase. Another factor affecting the rate of diffusing
