Worm Lab

In the lab that we did during this past week had some interesting things,  especially when we had to figure out which worms pulse rate per minute were affected by stimulates, depressants, or it was neutral. To figure out which worms were affected by those three things, which were in containers labeled A, B, and C, I looked at my groups data table and the other groups data tables. I compared my groups data to the others and looked for common numbers. I then looked at the data tables and crossed out numbers that were too high or too low. When I did that I noticed that two of the of the three containers data were similar while one of the containers were a little different.  In the container labeled A, I noticed the data for it was in between both of the data for the containers like around 19 pulses per minute , so I assume that container A is neutral. Then in the data for table B, I noticed that it was the lowest pulse rate averaging to about 18 pulses per minute, so container B has depressants. Then for the final container, which is C, I realized that the data says that the pulse rate was the highest, which was about 30 pulses per minute. That means that container C is a stimulant. That is how I assumed which containers had the substances that I was looking for.

• In this picture it shows how I cancelled the numbers that were too high or too low.
