Intercontinental University Aspects of Psychology Individual Project # 2 Experiments and Adaption July 30‚ 2012 ABSTRACT This paper is explaining five experiments; the process and results. It talks about sensory adaptation and how adaptation is evident in each of the experimental results. It also provides a comprehensive description of the sensory systems in the experiments that I performed. Before starting the four experiments‚ I had to remember that I had to keep in mind that there are five

DESIGN AN EXPERIMENT: THE BIGGEST BLOWER EXPERIMENT Design an Experiment: The Biggest Blower Experiment Problem Statement: You have a pack of Hubba Bubba Bubble Gum. Does the amount of sugar in this gum affect the size of the bubble you blow?? Hypothesis: I think that sugar in any gum affects the size of the bubble you blow. I think this because I was watching “The Next Great Baker” and someone was melting sugar and when it cooled off a little he used a balloon blower to make bubbles out of

and how they were mixed together. Then when you use paper chromatography you’ll see all the different pigments of that separation. (5 points) 5. What observations would lead you to believe that the ink is actually a mixture? Answer: It’s a mixture because you have to originally mix things to get the ink color. Take green ink for example. You might have to take yellow and blue to make that green. Plus the pigments that were shown on the paper. (5 points) 6. You are given an unknown type of

Popcorn Experiment Experiment performed on 8/26/11 Biology 101 Introduction: “The oldest popcorn ever found was discovered in the “Bat Cave” of central New Mexico. Archaeologists found 80‚000-year-old corn pollen below Mexico City”. “The popcorn was thougt to be about 5‚600 years old”. (www.factmonster.com/spot/popcorn1.html) This particular pollen is almost identical to today’s popcorn pollen. Researchers came up with the theory that popcorn could have been a Stone Age snack for “cave

Experiments: Doctors‚ Experiments‚ and Results Melissa Anjeanette Edwards POLYTECH High School of Kent County‚ Woodside‚ Delaware Abstract During World War II experiments were done on the prisoners of war in Nazi Germany. Doctors for these camps came in all shapes and sizes including former S.S. Troops‚ Women‚ and a variety of prisoner doctors. The experiments differed as much as the doctors themselves; however they stayed the same in one factor‚ medical curiosity become killing in atrocious

Task 3: Toilet Paper Absorbency Project Design Plan Problem Statement: Absorbency of toilet paper is found in many aspects when it comes to choosing the right toilet paper. When choosing toilet paper people base their decisions on many factors. Those factors include price‚ name brand‚ availability‚ quantity for the price‚ and even media deliverance (i.e. commercials) of toilet paper. Although these factors are of key importance‚ what about the absorbency of toilet paper? This experiment is conducted

so deeply ingrained and powerful that it cancels out a person’s ability to behave morally‚ ethically‚ or even sympathetically. In 1963 Milgram carried out an experiment. He hypothesized that individuals who would never intentionally cause someone physical harm would do so if ordered by a powerful authority figure. To carry out the experiment‚ Milgram designed a shock generator- a large electronic device with 30 switches labeled with voltage levels from 30 volts increasing at 15-volt intervals to

EXPERIMENT 7: PERCENTAGE OF OXYGEN IN KClO3 Introduction: In this experiment you will determine the percentage of oxygen in potassium chlorate. You will calculate the theoretical value from the chemical formula and compare your experimental value to the theoretical value. Background: When potassium chlorate (KClO3) is heated‚ it undergoes chemical decomposition. Oxygen gas (O2) is given off and potassium chloride (KCl) remains as the residue. The equation for the decomposition of potassium

Question 1 1.1 Silica gel chromatography: This is known as the stationary phase in column chromatography. Firstly‚ the tapered exit of the column is sealed using porous material. This porous material serves as support for the packing material‚ and prevents it from exiting the pipe. Thereafter‚ silica gel is compacted into the glass pipe to make the separating column. In finishing preparation of the column‚ the solvent which is used as the mobile phase is then passed through the dry column. Then the
