Research Question Investigate the effect of temperature on the rate of respiration of various parts of plants (germinating seeds and dormant (non-germinating) seeds)‚ by measuring the oxygen consumption and change in gas volume of respirometers containing either germinating or non-germinating seeds at different temperatures to measure the rate of respiration of these beans at different temperatures. Hypothesis 1.Germinating seeds have a higher rate of respiration as compared to non-germinating

the mission was to launch the second part of the TDRS-B to improve the older version. A TDRS-B is a satellite that transports data from space to Earth. It was also supposed to have the first non-astronaut in space for the Teacher in Space Program. But 73 seconds into the launch the Challenger exploded killing all seven crew members. It will still continue to be known as a great disaster in NASA that affected many of their ways of doing things. The purpose of the Challenger mission was to improve

methods are experimental and correlational. Many researchers use both methods to find outcome of their research. They may explore different avenues of an approach to gain the results they want. We will be describing the two methods and finding out which one is best. The definition of the experimental method is a scientific method message to confirm cause-and-effect relationships by introducing independent variables and observing their effects on dependent. “An example of experimental method‚ suppose

believed that it was wrong to capture‚ enslave and ship Africans to America to work in harsh conditions for free for White owners. The South‚ on the other hand believed slavery was right and should be used for helping the economy and producing cash crops so the North could use the supplies to make products.

100 million animals are used in animal testing every single year to further the understanding of species and the impact of different modern medicines. There are many organizations that are extremely against the use of these animals in medicine‚ saying that it is “cruel and inhumane”. Compare these 100 million to the 56 billion animals slaughtered for food for humans. Those 100 million almost seem like a small amount‚ don’t they? The animals used in scientific testing have contributed to many life-saving

The diameter and mass of a steel ball was measured and recorded by the class. These measurements were to determine error in measurements and the derived quantities‚ volume and density. The diameter was determined using a dial caliper and the mass‚ a triple beam balance. The results of the error for diameter were not as expected while the results of the volume and density were deviated greatly from expectations; only the weight had a small error. Experimental Instruments: 1. Steel ball 2
