THE EXPERIMENTS Joseph Mengele was very interested in genetics‚ particularly in twins. He carried out various experiments and tests‚ which were brutal and absolutely ferocious.

n this study‚ the Stroop effect experiment will be carried out on matching and mismatching test. The Stroop effect experiment was named after Ridely Stroop‚ published in 1935‚ and the purpose of this experiment was to demonstrate the difference in reaction time of reading the name of the coloured words and naming the ink of the colour. Not only does it record the reaction time‚ but it also aims to measure individuals focused attention‚ learning and memory (Stroop‚ 1935). However‚ when reading through

Therefore the beetroot used should be freshly cut. pH The pH is also an important factor‚ as pH can have an effect on the weak interactions and bonds that bound the membrane together. To keep the pH constant it is important to make sure that the same surrounding are used for the experiment. Surface area. The surface area of the beta
