Lima Bean Plant Experiment Hypothesis

On Tuesday, October 3rd, 2017, several samples of random bean beetles were sorted by gender and size. 6 groups sorted 5 males and 5 females, making for a total of 60 bean beetles. All beetles were measured under a Dissection 3D Microscope to approximate their torso length. After this was accomplished for every beetle in every group, a large data table was compiled to compare sizes. The 10 smallest and 10 largest beetles were each placed in their own respective bean “habitat,” and 10 random beetles from the remaining pool were also placed in their own bean “habitat.” These habitats were nearly identical to avoid unnecessary variability. The goal of the experiment will be to produce significant evidence to either reject the null hypothesis that bean beetle size has no correlation with survivability as a species, or to reject the alternative hypothesis that bean beetle size has some correlation with survivability as a species.

L.L. Bean Inc. or simply L.L. Bean is a retail company that specializes in outdoor recreational equipment. Product selections ranges from tents, sleeping bags, camping packs, hiking gear and outdoor apparel. Founded in 1912 by Leon Leonwood Bean, L.L. Bean remains a privately owned retail company. Leon Bean was an avid outdoors man and enjoyed hunting and fishing. When he initially set up shot L.L. Bean only sold one product the duck boot. This boot was designed to be lightweight and waterproof intended for hunters. Later on Leon Bean started to branch out by selling other outdoors gear such as backpacks and tents and would eventually produce their own clothing line. L.L. Bean has since become a global company but remains

In the bean lab, students got to understand the change of the bean population over five generations. The concept of evolution has been necessary overtime because it allows an exemplar for natural selection. In the lab, the larger beans would be the directly visible prey allowing the predators to easily eat them. That being said, the reproduction of the beans would mostly come from the smaller beans due to their survival rates. This lab relates back to the modern day and how the theory of evolution has come to be. Some think that over time Humans evolved into a new species due to the very similar genetics that we share. Possibly having common ancestors has brought the same effect as the lab, where over time the natural selection process has

The bean beetle, or Callosobruchus Maculatus, is a pest native to Africa and Asia. Female bean beetles reproduce by laying eggs beans, and then the larva from the egg will burrow into the bean. Generally, bean beetles infest the cowpea species, which include black-eyed peas, adzuki beans, and mung beans, most often.

The new idea of organic food involved many farmers in agricultural practices to learn about grow better products and livestock, farmers were making conclusions and trying to learn the most possible for be part of the new success. “Their goals were to grow the most nutritious food possible, while protecting the soil for future generations,”

Based on these methods above the bean beetle experiment was conducted. Hundreds bean beetle offspring were measured, averages, standard deviation, and two figures were produced based on the data collected. Observations of the bean beetles mating showed that the larger the parents, the larger the offspring tended to be. There were six beetles in the large, small, and control groups. Exactly three males and three females were in these groups. The mating done were all consistent shown in the methods above, and repeated in multiple trials as well. As shown in Figure 1, the large parent treatment bar towers over the small parent treatment bar. This shows that the large parents were able to produce much larger offspring on this certain occasion.

It depends on where the toxin is being dumped in/onto that concludes whether my plant is a good or bad bioremediator--making it inconclusive. It may work better when it comes to cleaning up toxins from the water, but not as good as it would on land. I don’t have enough results to confirm my claim(but I have enough to support it), so I'll need to conduct more experiments to actually confirm my claim just so that I am thorough. From the data in the graph in the results section, it showed that the Juncea plant with the toxins in the water actually didn’t die and actually grew, but if you look at my plant with the toxins in the soil it ended up dying on day number 12. This made me think: does the Brassica Juncea be a better option to clean up toxins depending where the toxin is dumped on/into.

The purpose of this experiment is to investigate whether the size of the bean will affect the height and growth rate of the bean stalk. According to Anthony Brach Ph.D., the larger seed size tends to grow slower because they require more nutrients than smaller seeds, however, larger seeds will often grow taller because they have a lot of nutrients stored in them. Mung beans, are a legume likely native to India. These bean plants require full sunlight or at least eight to 10 hours of sunlight daily. Mung beans can grow up to 36 inches tall and reaches maturity after 120 days. The goals of this experiment are to learn how to successfully

I am writing to bring to your attention a serious issue I had in your establishment last week. I ordered a vegetarian bean burrito, and halfway through my meal, I bit into what turned out to be a chicken bone.

The pungent smells of unknown roots, dried herbs, and other chinese spices reeked the air as I explored my mom’s deceptively small medicine cabinet. I discovered a tall glass jar filled with marbled pinto beans hidden by bouquets of piquant ginger. Armed with a muffin tin tray stolen from the kitchen, spongy soil from the front of my apartment, and an insatiable curiosity, I began experimenting with planting the beans. Whether fed a diet of sugary water, or grown in artificial light, the results amazed me: some tall, others delicate, and one with streaks of purple all over. The unknown potential of each bean catalyzed my passion for experimentation, science, and self discovery.

A final recommendation in winning the battle against food shortages in Cuba would be the use of organic fertilizers and bio-fertilizers. Currently, organic fertilizers include animal waste, plant residues, industrial and residential waste and organic household waste. In addition to organic fertilizers, bio-fertilizers can and should be used. Bio-fertilizers are a substance which contains microorganisms and promote the growth of a crop. The key to organic and bio-fertilizers are planning and volume. Solutions would include building composting bins in urban areas in each home’s backyard. If size does not allow, designating one large composting bin for the neighborhood in a central location is a possible solution. Although transporting waste

As we discussed during the experiment, the raw peas are not denatured therefore, containing proteins still. But, the boiled peas it appears to show that they are red, suggesting that they are denatured and also lost their functionality. Tetrazolium was able to react with the raw peas that contained proteins. However, it did not react with the boiled peas because of their denaturation.

Are you tired of plants taking forever to grow and dying quickly? Well this project might show an answer to this problem. Coffee grounds have caffeine in them, so it might give the mung bean plant energy to grow and stay healthy. The experiment I am going to conduct is seeing if mung bean plants grow faster and stay healthier when coffee grounds are added to it’s soil, or if just regular soil helps the mung bean plant more. The question that needs to be answered is, do bean plants grow faster and stay healthier when caffeine (coffee grounds) is added to the soil, using mung beans, or do they grow faster and stay healthier when no caffeine is exposed to the plants.

This experiment will be conducted in Balaka, Malawi because this city is rural and any farming on the land will not disturb their culture. The land is already a moderately suitable region for farming potatoes. Additionally, this region suffers from droughts and hunger which will help show if the crop will provide a reliable food source. The population of 24,000 people allows us to have a good sample size to test consumption of the genetically modified crop, and to see if it can be a reliable food source.

It is also affordability, convenience, and effectiveness in nourishing plants; however it can also have disadvantages when using chemical based fertilizers. Plants will show signs of lacking nutrient the inorganic fertilizer was separate help over organic choices, it depends on soil organisms to first, break down the organic substance before the nutrients can be out. Inorganic fertilizer’s fast delivery elements and minerals eliminate this potential problem. Inorganic fertilizer, which is often reasonably priced, consists of mineral-based nutrients manufactured for instant application on crops. Unlike the organic variety, inorganic fertilizer does not need to decompose over time to supply nutrients to plants. Inorganic fertilizer contained balanced amounts of nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus to supply plants and to grow it faster. These are the substance of chemical gain from the processes in cultivating the first one is urea. Nitrogen as urea can be lost to the atmosphere if fertilizer urea remains on the soil surface for total periods of time throughout warm
