1. BELL WORK: Answer only
Scientists noticed that frogs in Keheii Lagoon were much larger than frogs in Sand Island waters. Sand Island contains non-polluted fresh water whereas Keheii Lagoon contains pesticide contaminated water. In the experiment, tadpoles of the same age were collected in the same amount of water from each reservoir. The tadpoles were allowed to mature for 3 weeks and their growth was compared. The Sand Island tadpole average masses were: 1st Week 15 grams; 2nd Week 22 grams; and 3rd Week 41 grams. The Keheii Lagoon tadpole average masses were: 1st Week 13 grams; 2nd Week 18 grams; and 3rd Week 29 grams.
Do you larger sizes of tadpoles in Keheii Lagoon or Sand Island?
What is the problem?
What is the independent variable?
What is the dependent variable?
What could be a possible hypothesis?
What is the control group?
The two reservoir – Sand Island and Keheii Lagoon
The size of the tadpoles
If tadpoles from Keheii Lagoon were measured, then the size of the tadpoles would be smaller because of the polluted waters.
