During the experiment, a table was given with fifteen different columns labeled one through fifteen and are meant to stand for the fifteen popcorn kernels that are also provided. The table also has six blank rows to fill out information on each individual kernel. The first column is to be used to show the weight of the popcorn kernel’s weighing dish. After acquiring this, the second column, labeled Mass Before, is to be used to show mass of the kernel using the equation: Mass of Dish and Kernel – Mass of Dish = Mass of Kernel
The third column, labeled Mass After, is then filled out by popping each kernel and using the equation: Mass of Dish and Popped Kernel – Mass of Dish = Mass of Popped Kernel
The Mass Lost or forth column is answered by the equation: Mass of Kernel – Mass of Popped Kernel = Mass Lost

= √(Sum of Final Column – (Mean of Percent Mass Lost)2 x 15) / (15 – 1)
This answer is then used to fill out a bell curve by adding and subtracting the standard deviation twice.

The following Histogram shows that the distribution is approximately symmetrical about the mean, or bell-shaped. Therefore, using the Empirical Rule, I concluded that 47.5% of the lbs. of milk produced per month fell between 2270.5 lbs. and 964.10 lbs. This accounts for a very large portion of the total milk produced; as 68% fell within 1 standard deviation of 653.20 of the mean, and 95% fell within 2 standard deviations of the mean.
Take each bag of popped popcorn and count the individual kernels that did not pop and record the data on the chart. Perform this for each
The purpose of this lab was to determine if lima beans would be able to grow nice and big in gatorade. The hypothesis stated, if we put the lima bean in the gatorade then it will grow really big, fast because gatorade contains of electrolytes that might affect the lima beans growth. The hypothesis turned out to be disapproved because the lima beans average length in the water/ control starting from day 1 was 17.5 mm, 25.4 mm, 42mm, and 44mm. The lima beans average length in the gatorade was 17mm, 22.6mm, and by day 3, the lima beans grew mold. In addition to that, The total mass of the lima bean in the control was greater than the bean in the variable. The lima bean in the control’s total mass was 5.25g, 9g, 11.9g, and 20.5g. The lima bean
By the end of the experiment, it was predicted that the egg would be swollen when left in water and shriveled when left in corn syrup. Based on the data given from the table above, the prediction is, more or less, right. The egg did, in fact, shrivel up and the weight of the egg did go down as well. Compared to the beginning of the experiment where the egg had an initial mass of 81.50 grams, but by the end of the water aspect of the research the egg ended up weighing 93.74 grams, therefore, there was an increase of 12.24 grams. Using the data table the weight from the start the syrup aspect of the experiment was 93.74 grams, after being left in syrup the egg weighed a total of 57.32 grams, thus, the egg decreased in weight by 36.42 grams.

5. Weighing: Drag each ear on each of the plants to the weighing dishes to weigh its kernels. The yield of kernels of each plant is now on a weighing dish. Drag a weighing dish to the balance to read the weight of the kernels. Record the weigh of a Data Table. Proceed to weigh the kernel yield from all plants. Calculate the average kernel yield form each set of three identical plants that are grown under identical conditions from the same type of seed. Record the calculations on the Data Table.
The test results are as follows: • Cup A decreased in a steady manner, with a weekly average rate of change of .5. • Cub B decreased in a steady manner, with a weekly average rate of change of .5. • Cup C decreased in a steady manner, with a weekly average rate of change of .55. • The weekly rates of change of each cup were all very similar with Cup A and B being the same and Cup C following right behind. • In four weeks, Cup A lost two grams of weight, Cup B lost two grams, and Cup C lost 2.2 grams.
I can truly say that I have never been as disgusted researching and writing a paper than I am writing one about the production and growth of food. In a previous course, I had to watch the documentary, King Corn. Watching that film alone was an eye-opener for me because it went into depth about how 80% of Americas antibiotics were used on cows because of being corn fed, but I never knew how drastic the food industry was. Now that I have watched two drastic films and read the chapter on Food, I feel as if I never want to eat food unless it is grown by me. With a growing population, there is a demand for an increase in agriculture.
The listed materials were taken to a workstation and placed on a blue tray. Water was poured into the zip plastic bag. The red cabbage leaves were torn apart and crushed. They were then placed into the bag containing water. Pressure was then applied to the bag. The 8 cups were then placed on a piece of paper on the tray. The purple tinted water from the bag was then poured into the 5 clear plastic cups. The cream of tartar was then added to one of the 3 small cups. The vinegar was then added to the second small cup. The laundry detergent was then added to the last small cup. A toothpick was then dipped into the cream of tartar and then dipped into one of the 4 clear plastic cups. Observations were recorded. A separate toothpick was then dipped into the laundry detergent and then dipped into a different clear plastic cup than the last one. Observations were recorded. The final toothpick was then dipped
The lab that was performed was to evaluate the amount of sugar in four pieces of gum, two of which are sugared, as the other two samples are sugarless. With this lab it will allow oneself to understand the sugar levels in products they consume. A lad to this extent is to be performed with precise measurements of mass, allowing the concluded results accurate. Percent composition of sugar in gum is the percentage of gum that is sugar over the percentage of gum that is other ingredients. The conclusion and results to the lab are; mass of the sugared gum was 2.9g, mass of the sugarless gum was 2.0g. After the samples were chewed for a duration of five minutes the samples were placed on parchment paper to dry.
An exciting thriller has always been a popular category of literary works, whether it be in the form of a film or novel. Trying to adapt a thriller from a short story to a movie can prove to create some challenges that can only be overcome by altering the storyline or details in order to make an attempt to keep the idea of the works the same. That is why similarities and differences are most often created between literary works when being transcribed over into other forms of entertainment. This is seen in The Most Dangerous Game, which is a short story changed into a movie of the same title, where in order to tell the full spiel some subjects must remain constant; however, there is more than one case of oblivious changes throughout the entirety
On October 5, 1946 in Maggie Valley, NC a legendary moonshiner was born. The man’s name was Marvin “Popcorn” Sutton. Furthermore, Popcorn grew up and went deep into the backwood of the Appalachian Mountains, and started moonshining. Without doubt, Popcorn cleared himself out a spot and started building his still. First, he took some copper and made a cylinder out of it with a copper bottom on the still, which had a fire made under it. Second, Popcorn put a funnel shaped piece of copper on the top, with a copper tube running to a small wooden barrel called the thump keg. The thump keg filters the alcohol steam through water. Third, the filter steam traveled out of the thump keg through a copper tube to the worm box. Finally, the tube started
Foor this you simply have to take a look at the processed data table and graph. There is a clear specific trend, visibly recognizable as well as mathematically (a trend line indicates it), that is, as the molar concentration (solute) of salt increased in the solution where potatoes were placed, the mass of potatoes decreased. Now, from the molar concentrations of salt solute that we tested (0.0M, 0.2M, 0.4M, 0.6M, 0.8M, 1.0M) we cannot decipher with certainty and accuracy what is the molar concentration of potato cells. However, we can estimate, and judging by the a decrease in percent mass from 21.10% grams (0.0M) to 12.13% (0.2M) and followed by a constant decrease in percent change in mass, it can be said that the salt concentration of a potato cell is between 0.0M and 0.2M. This is because these molar concentrations are the one that show the decrease in mass of the potato. When there’s a decrease in mass, this practically means that the water inside the cells is leaving because of diffusion to areas of lower concentration.
From the opening line of “The Fall of the House of Usher”, there is a gloomy and dark tone that Edgar Allen Poe places on the story. The narrator often describes the scene as shadowy and that foreshadows the horrific events that are to come right off of the bat. This story is written about the main character, Roderick Usher, and the mental illness that falls upon him and his mansion. He invites the narrator to visit him to help cope with this overwhelming fear that consumes him. Throughout the story Poe uses the rhetorical device, symbolism, to depict his feelings and to give a sense of foreshadowing and to give insight into his thoughts and feelings. Poe uses symbolism and imagery in a way that foreshadows the events to come and throughout the story these rhetorical devices give insight into the shifts of Roderick’s feelings and to the components of the story.
Bipolar disorder (BP) is a debilitating mental illness that is found in 2% of the population and that onsets in late adolescence and early adulthood (Fabbri et al., 2014). The causes and treatment of BP are not known however there are many biological and cognitive theories (Myers, 2013). The types of treatment include various medications and types of therapy such as cognitive behavior therapy (Abrams, 2004). The very important question that needs to be asked is whether cognitive behavior therapy is a more effective treatment for bipolar disorder than multiple types of medications.
