Discussion The purpose of this experiment was to determine if splitting a bean would affect its rate of respiration. Splitting a bean does not impact its rate of respiration. This is shown in the data‚ while the average rate of respiration for Whole beans is 1.35 and the rate of respiration for 1.16‚ the standard error of the mean is .15. Because the standard error of the mean is so high‚ they overlap in both of the data sets‚ which shows that the data is very similar. This is better shown in the

Topic: The effects on China’s economy due to fluctuation of exchange rate. 1. Introduction China’s economy is huge and expanding rapidly. In the last 30 years‚ the rate of Chinese economic growth has been almost miraculous‚ averaging 8 percent growth in Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per annum. The economy has grown more than 10 times during that period‚ with Chinese GDP reaching 3.42 trillion US dollars in 2007. China already has the biggest economy after the United States and most analysts

The Effects of Gun Control Law on Violent Crime Rates Emily JettCSCI N207Final Project12/8/2012 | Abstract: This paper discusses the relationship between violent crime rates in each state as well as that state’s corresponding gun control laws. The data is presented to provide information pertaining to the theory that stricter gun laws prevent higher rates of violent crime. Violent crime statistics were taken from The United Crime Report document from the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s website

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

operations that minimize the adverse effects of processing. The effect of food processing on finished product quality ultimately determines the usefulness and commercial viability of that unit process operation. In the particular case of food drying this indicates that loss of volatiles and flavours‚ changes in colour and texture‚ and a decrease in nutritional value. Furthermore‚ residual enzyme activity and microbial activity in dried foods are essential parameters that effect product quality and shelf life

Parachute experiment Aim: The aim was to find the effect of holes on a parachute‚ varying their size and number. Hypothesis: 1. By increasing the number of holes‚ the time it will take to the parachute to reach the ground will be longer and its flight will be more balanced. 2. By increasing the size of the hole on the parachute‚ the time it will take to the parachute to reach the ground will be shorter and its flight will be less balanced.

Title Antimicrobial properties in different type of plants. Introduction A substance that kills or prevents the growth of microorganisms for example bacteria‚ fungi or protozoans is called an antimicrobial. This substance has 2 major roles which are to either kill microbes (microbiocidal) or prevent the growth of microbes (microbiostatic). Disinfectants are antimicrobial substances used on non-living objects outside the body. This substance included antibiotics‚ antifungals‚ antiprotozoals and

The Milgram experiment even though it was a hoax had a lasting effects on many of it’s participants in both positive and negative ways and is a example of why humans should not be used as test subjects. The Milgram experiment was conducted by Stanley Milgram a assistant professor of psychology at Yale. The experiment wanted to
