The group hypothesized that if worms in a bottle had dirt, compost, oxygen, and a good environment they would survive, reproduce, and improve soil. The groups hypothesis was partially supported by this experiment. For one, most worms did not survive. By the end of the experiment 5 worms remained although the group started out with 27. The experimental error that may have caused the deaths was there were too many worms at the beginning. The amount of compost was not adequate to feed 27 worms for 9 weeks. The food supplied the worms with glucose so when there wasn’t enough compost there wasn’t enough glucose to be broken down during glycolysis, transported, or eventually turn into ATP. Because they didn’t get their nutrition, the worms died …show more content…
The volume stayed consistent because to decrease, the process needs activation energy. Once the activation energy was stored, the compost started to decrease almost linearly. The decreasing was due to worms eating the compost and disposing some of it as dirt, disposing some into the air (CO2), and using other part of the compost like the H’s as energy. This was due to cellular respiration; the worms used the compost for glucose, and due to homeostasis unused molecules were released through respiration.. The compost stayed constant again at the end of the experiment because worms started to die, and weren’t able reduce any more …show more content…
Farmers need to know pH levels, phosphorus levels, and nitrogen levels in order to grow plants most efficiently. This experiment shows them how dirt can be created through composting, leading to better plants. Government can use this experiment to create a new recycling system: a composting system. This will decrease landfills, and increase land for civilization to prosper. Most everyday people should use this experiment to help improve their gardens, and reduce trash they make. The more they compost, the less goes into landfills, and the better their soil can
Then, the beetles were given a chance to breed which resulted in failure; most of the eggs and larvae died because of the loss of the microbe. Scientists found HhMAN1

Anth. 105 Human Species – Lab 4 Report Rumaysa Sharif 05/14/18 Introduction Primates, apes and humans all have varying body masses, brain sizes and life spans. One species may have a longer life span or a larger brain than the other.
Since most people have a negative feeling towards intestinal worms, Parker combats this negative feeling by using facts. A specific purpose of this quote is to show that helminths have already been tested on humans with positive effects, suggesting that it would be a good idea to continue using them in the future. Furthermore, by providing specific diseases
An issue is going around is about whether compost should be allowed to be used for the environment of a school campus. Compost should be since it would help the food waste go to good, it would benefit the surrounding environment of the school, and it 'd help with the problem of landfills being over filled. In the United states, about 30-40 percent of the food is wasted. That waste ends up in landfills and rot to no use or purpose, even though those moldy, rotten tomatoes you threw out have a very good use and it can be the reason why your garden is so full of bright, vibrant flowers and plants.
To get oxygen into its body it defuses into the worm; almost like the oxygen is being pulled into it. From there blood vessels grab the oxygen gas while being circulated by the pumping of its hearts. Soon after, the oxygen is used up and becomes carbon dioxide gas. The gas then defuses, or gets pushed, out of the worm; making room for more
Pat McGurrin October 24, 2015 Period #1 Honors Biology Mr. Dinunzio Murder and Meal Lab Analysis Procedure: 1.) Gather all materials: Safety goggles, 250ml beaker, water, hot-plate, test-tubes, paper bag tear, stomach contents, pipette, Biruet solution, Benedict’s solution, and Iodine solution. 2.) Put on safety glasses.
Intially, a human drinks water contaminated with water fleas, which have eaten the Guinea worm larvae. The human digestive system destroys the fleas, but the Guinea worm larvae survive. A year after infection, the larvae are fully grown and females make their way to the surface of the skin.
The flow of nutrients within this type of system is more efficient than the methods of monoculture farming which uses crop rotations and diminishes top soil
Now, if we think about what that really means, while you’ll most likely have a crappy smelling backyard for a few days, the fact we can recycle something that’s typically seen as vile, or bad, and use it to grow beautiful things is quite refreshing. If cow poop can grow chrysanthemums (how the hell do you pronounce that word), then why can’t the bullshit in our own lives fertilize our soil to make us better and more interesting people? It’s the middle of
Our body is one of the most astounding things on earth. We have an innumerable amount of cells that are aimed to carry out operations with absolute accuracy. Researching deeper into the complex organism, which is our body is something I would enjoy doing as a career. My fascination for cells and our physiology are developed through my subjects.
We can also recycle the biodegradable materials that are thrown away such as spoiled food, cuttings, teabags, etc; and use them for compost people can simply buy from the
Many Americans have pets in their homes, who they consider to be important part of their lives. As a result many people are concerned with animals rights. Many people believe that animals should be treated the same as humans, however the struggle to find cures for some of America 's most common diseases, animal testing is a key to find these cures. Animal testing should be continued as long as it is done humanely, so we can find cures and new medicines.
It is a difficult task to bring down trash because they have to bring it down ropes,ladders and ice pegs. Animal and human waste plays a part in the trash because it takes waste one year to biodegrade and if petrified takes even longer
Ever since the industrial revolution commenced, around one third of the carbon dioxide released by human interference has been absorbed by the ocean, which is one of the reasons of the drastic change in climate as well. Without the ocean absorbing carbon dioxide, the carbon dioxide n the atmosphere would be drastically higher, with possibly increasing the levels of climate change. The point of the research is to see how will the pH affect the organisms in the marine ecosystem and does carbonation affect an organism’s mass and form. Many organisms that are part of the marine food chain are going to be affected by ocean acidification due the levels of acidity deteriorating the calcium carbonate within the animal. It turns out
