Mitosis Experimental Design
I. Problem/Question
I believe the goal of the experiment is to find out what kind of temperature is best suitable for plant cells in mitosis to grow quicker and to become much healthier.
II. Hypothesis
I believe that hot temperature may affect the rate of mitosis in plant cells and if I'm correct, I will see mitosis is faster as measured by plant growth, when it hit a specific height.
III. Variables
Independent Variable: Temperature
Dependent Variable: Plant Growth |
IV. Experimental Groups
Control Group: A group of plants in a ideal climate
Experimental Groups: 1. Plant in hot temperature (15* Celsius) higher. 2. Plant in cold temperature (15* Celsius) lower. |
V. Experimental Procedure
1. Get three plants and plant in plots with (same soil,same environment and same water given).
2. Plant one plant in hot temperature (15* Celsius higher than ideal).
3. Plant one in a greenhouse ideal temperature. (CG).
4. Plant one in cold temperature (15* Celsius lower than ideal).
5. Monitor plants height until it hits a specific height (1m).
2. Plant one plant in hot temperature (15* Celsius higher than ideal).
3. Plant one in a greenhouse ideal temperature. (CG).
4. Plant one in cold temperature (15* Celsius lower than ideal).
5. Monitor plants height until it hits a specific height (1m).
VI. Material List
- Soil
- Water
- Three pots
- Three plants
- Greenhouse
- Greenhouse 15* higher ideal
- Greenhouse 15* lower ideal
VII. Expected Results
I expect to see the plant cells grow much faster in hot temperature because I believe that the temperature will have much to do with the plant growth. If my hypothesis is correct that hot temperature will affect plant cells growth in mitosis, then I will see it begin to grow faster because in cold temperature I think they will slowly start dying and in hot temperature they will grow much faster because I think it will be in a conformable temperature.
