IV vs DV
The independant variable of this experiment.
What is water temperature?
The number of times trials were repeated.
What is ten times?
The level of IV with the quickest regeneration rate.
What is 35 degrees celsius?
Two issues this experiment helps look further into.
What are climate change and human tissue regeneration?
The dependent variable of this experiment.
What is planarian regeneration time?
The rationale of the experiment.
What is to prepare for global warming?
The correlation between the temperature and regeneration rate.
What is an inverse relationship?
The similarity between planarians and humans which help relate findings for issue solutions.
What are organs and biological processes?
The levels of the independent variable.
What are the temperatures 15°C, 22°C, 29°C, 36°C, and 43°C?
The way the water temperature was kept constant.
What is placing the planarian parts in a petri dish in a plastic box in a thermostat-controlled aquarium at their respective water temperature?
The theorized temperature for peak rate of planarian regeneration.
What is 35°C?
The aptitude planarians have that humans don’t, which scientists are trying to advance.
What is unlimited regeneration ability?
A reasonable hypothesis of this experiment.
What is “if water temperature increases, then planarian regeneration time will decrease?”
The data that was recorded and how.
Was is the number of days needed for the planarians to regenerate its eyes recorded by taking pictures daily?
The theorized cause of the correlation between temperature and regeneration rate.
What is the heat provides extra energy for metabolic processes?
The idea that helps develop an understanding of the effect of climate change.
What is “Similar species in the same ecosystem have similar metabolic abilities”?
