explore how temperature would influence the rate of cellular respiration of beans. It was hypothesized that as the temperature of the beans increased‚ the rate of cellular respiration would increase as well. In this experiment‚ the independent variable was the temperature‚ which gradually increased as time went by‚ and the dependent variable was the rate of cellular respiration‚ which was shown by the change in the amount of CO2 and O2 in the container. During the experiment‚ 25 cooled beans were put
