Cartesian Diver Essay The Cartesian Diver is named after the French scientist Rene Descartes. This experiment is supposed to show buoyancy‚ density and different forms of matter at work‚ when demonstrated. To create the Cartesian Diver‚ you’ll simply need: • A empty plastic bottle • A plastic eye dropper • Water 1. Fill the bottle with water‚ but be cautious of spills. 2. Very carefully‚ drop the dropper inside the bottle. Then‚ seal the cap on very tightly. 3. Squeeze the bottle‚ but not too

For this experiment‚ there were four onion bulbs labeled A‚ B‚ C‚ and D. Bulbs B‚ C‚ and D were each immersed in a different concentration of coffee. Bulb A acted as the control because it was not immersed in any concentration of coffee; instead‚ the onion roots grew in water. The following is a list‚ in order‚ of the concentration of caffeine bulbs B‚ C‚ and D were in: 0.1%‚ 0.3%‚ and 0.5%. Four test tubes were gathered to set up the experiment‚ each holding an onion bulb. After each day‚ every

decreased with time. This happened because the difference in water potential between the inside and the outside of the beetroot time decreased as the experiment proceeded. Osmosis occurred most in distilled water because this contained the highest water potential when compared with the other beakers. Five concentration were used in this experiment in an attempt to try to find the concentration of sugar inside the beetroot. If such concentration was used there would have been neither a decrease an

within the horse which will then lead the horse to stop drooling (McKinley‚ 2016). C.) Experiment: The purpose of this experiment was to test which variables affected the horses sympathetic nervous system leading the horse to stress and drooling. There were multiple variables tested such as the dilation of the horses eyes‚ if the horses ears were up and lastly if the horse drooled. In order to conduct this experiment‚ we had one horse getting honked at by a car and then testing those variables to

The results of the experiment was very surprising‚ as the science behind it didn’t add up to the results that were shown on the petri dishes. Here are the colony counts of each of the locations that the dish was placed in. Incubator = 27 Control = 124 Freezer = 0 Window seal = 1 Dark box = 215 The independent variable here is the temperature of where the dished were placed meaning they could grow quicker. For the Incubator‚ you can see that the count of colonies was very small compared to some others

This experiment tested the growth of E.coli with inserted plasmid on an agar plate with Ampicillin. One colony of E.coli resistant to Ampicillin was grown during this experiment. The overall goal of the experiment was to successfully grow E.coli on the agar plate‚ which would show that the plasmid had been effectively inserted into the bacteria’s genes. This experiment helped students understand how plasmids were inserted into bacteria and used in real life situations. It also showed how the bacteria’s

compensation for participating in this experiment. These participants were divided into six groups based on where they were sitting. Design The Stroop Test was used in order to test the effect of interference on reaction time. This was done by using three different types of slides‚ each with either 20 words or 20 colored boxes‚ and recording how many words participants could read the color of‚ rather than the word itself. The colors used in this experiment were red‚ green‚ blue‚ purple and brown
