The hypothesis made prior to the experiment was not correct - the distilled water did result in the most weight gain (g); however‚ the 5% salt concentration did not result in the least weight gain (g). Table 1 clearly highlights that the 3% salt concentration resulted in the least weight gain (g). The distilled water resulted in the most weight gain (g) because the solution is hypotonic – a hypotonic solution results in the water diffusing into the cell because the molecules of the substance are

Diabetes is a chronic disease that affects the endocrine system‚ and occurs when your blood glucose‚ also known as blood sugar‚ is too high. Disease is a very common and serious disease that affects approximately 29.1 million people in the U.S.‚ let alone the 86 million people that have prediabetes‚ without even noticing it‚ (MedicineNet.com). To understand diabetes‚ it is important to understand the role of insulin and glucose in the body. Glucose‚ or sugar‚ is an important source of energy for

Three Month Treasury Bills and The Variables That Affect the Rates Abstract This paper attempts to create two models that can predict fluctuations in three-month US Treasury Bill yields. Using both simple and multiple regression analysis‚ we analyze the independent variables traditionally associated with risk free U.S. money market interest rates including the Consumer Price Index‚ the Industrial Production Index‚ and the Unemployment rate over two periods‚ July 1990-March 2001 and March 2001-December

The data found in this experiment supported the initial statement in the hypothesis‚ that blue would have the highest rate of photosynthesis (see Figure 7). The second part of the prediction was refuted by the data‚ as green had a higher rate than both yellow and red. This result seems to go against the experiment‚ however the answer is in Figure 5. When adding green food coloring to the solution (see Methods) dilution also took place. When comparing the wavelength of 540 nm (see Tables 1 & 2) with

"These adaptations could affect their off-line language skills that are important to language development and grammar skills‚ as well." Whether texting affects grammar and sentence structure is a widely debated topic amongst researchers and educators‚ with some feeling that it has a negative effect‚ some claiming it has a positive effect‚ and

Does Gender Affect Color Preference? Abstract The objective of this experiment was to determine if gender plays a role in color preference. In other words‚ do males actually prefer blue and green‚ while females favor pink or purple? This experiment was conducted by surveying ninety-six people‚ 48 males and 48 females‚ to complete a short survey. The survey asked them if they were color blind and whether they were male or female. They were then given five color cards (blue

How do limiting factors affect the rate of photosynthesis? Rate is the measurement of an amount of product or time. In the case of the rate of photosynthesis‚ it is measuring the gain of mass or growth over time. If the plant is an aquatic one that grows in water the rate of photosynthesis can be measured by counting oxygen bubbles or the volume of gas produced in a measured time period. A limiting factor is something that is present in the environment that has a short supply and because of that
