Goldfish and Water Temperature Goldfish and Water Temperature The subject of my observation is a goldfish that is kept in a 2 gallon fishbowl positioned on a window side table. I have noticed that the goldfish is more active in the earlier morning and later evening than during the afternoon hours. Because the table is near a window that faces northeast‚ the fishbowl receives direct sunlight during the time between eleven o’clock a.m. and four o’clock p.m. The goldfish activity decreases around

The Affect of Water Temperature on Goldfish Breathing Rate Carlos Vega Vanessa Santamaria Rasa Hodges 9/12/2013 Introduction The main objective of our lab was to see how temperature affects the breathing patterns of an Ectothermic animal. Ectothermic is the same thing as cold-blooded. It means that the animal‚ in this case a goldfish (Carassius Aauratus)‚ does not produce its own heat internally so the animals temperature depends on the temperature of its surroundings. So

Effect of Temperature on Cricket Respiration Crickets are ectotherms that rely on their environment as a source of heat for their metabolism. Warmer temperatures allow crickets to respire at a greater rate.

The effect of different temperature on the cell respiration. Introduction： Cell respiration is the controlled release of energy from organic compounds in cells to form ATP‚and then release waste products. The process of cell respiration can take place in the presence or absence of oxygen. In either case‚the first stage of cell respiration is glycolysis.The effect of temperature on cell respiration mainly depends on the effect of temperature on of enzyme activity.Generally speaking in a certain

Goldfish Respiration Abstract The purpose of this experiment is to design and conduct a basic scientific experiment‚ identify and control variables. Some other objectives that we learned is to write a formal hypothesis‚ identify the basic and integrated process skills of science that were used in this experiment. Also‚ we will learned the effects of temperature on goldfish respiration. This experiment will be conducted with four students ‚ one goldfish‚ thermometer‚ a stop watch‚ and a beaker

Goldfish Respiration Abstract The purpose of this experiment is to tests the effects of temperature on the respiration (breathing) rate of goldfish. In order to determine the goldfish respiration change adding small amounts of crushed ice to the water‚ than behavior will be noted. Then‚ the goldfish will experience the same experiment four more times and be noted again. This experiment will be conducted with four students‚ one goldfish‚ a 250 mL and a 150 mL beaker‚ thermometer‚ crushed ice‚

The experiment was somewhat successful in supporting the hypothesis. However‚ as a result of large inaccuracies and inconsistencies‚ it was difficult to make clear conclusions on the overall investigation of the experiment. The summary table portrays the errors and inaccuracies within the data. As evident in the table‚ the 10oC temperature is very accurate as the range was 0‚ resulting in an error percentage of 0%. However‚ the 35oC temperature had a no clear skew of results as indicated through

Conditions: Students are NOT required to design an experiment. Experimental design has been provided for you to use instead. You are however required to submit a Risk Assessment for the investigation. Students are to work independently. However‚ you will need to collect raw data from 4 other students to

photosynthesis. This process can be affected by several variables; one of the most notable variables is the temperature of the plant’s environment. Previous study has led me to conclude that when the temperature of the plants’ environment is low‚ the rate of photosynthesis is also low because the enzymes responsible for photosynthesis are not able to absorb as much heat energy and in turn will move slower. In contrast‚ if the temperature of the plant’s environment increases‚ the rate of photosynthesis

December 2012 1. Title and Author 1. The Effect of Extreme Temperatures on the Rate of Photosynthesis 2. Jeffrey Xia 2. Abstract A previous lab in which we conducted‚ tested whether or not the light intensity had an effect on the rate of photosynthesis. We concluded that light intensity did possess an effect on the rate of photosynthesis – the closer the experimental plant units were to the light source‚ the more experimental plant units exhibited the effect of gas exchange in photosynthesis.
