Biology science project




Today, we went over the scientific method in class. We reviewed the following steps:

1. Ask a question.
2. Conduct research.
3. construct a hypothesis.
4.Test your hypothesis by doing an experiment.
5.Analyze the data and draw a conclusion
6.Communicate your results.

Today, our biology student Tyler started his experiment by asking the following question.

Will higher concentrations of food coloring placed in water make the carnation placed in the colored water change color faster?

He researched and found out that it will take from 1 to 24 hours for the flowers to showsomechange in color.

Tyler has hypothesized that the higher concentration of food coloring will make the carnation darker and change color quicker.

Tyler disolved the food coloring in the water at different levels of concentration, and then placed the white carnations into the water. He will check for results beginning in one hour.
