I want to change my experiment to something completely different since my toilet paper absorbency experiment isn't suitable
I'm think about doing:
The effect of Gatorade Vs. Water on year 10's Pulse Rates while Exercising
The Independent Variables include:
- the age of the yr 10's : 15 or 16 year olds
- the method and amount of time the pulse is taken for
- amount of time exercising and resting
- types of exercises
The Dependent Variables include:
- whether or not Gatorade was consumed prior to exercise
Method:
(make sure parental permission is obtained in writing for all yr 10s)
1. Pour 250mL of Gatorade into each paper cup
2. Have each student drink each 250mL cup of Gatorade
3. Wait approximately 30 minutes
4. Take resting pulse rates of each person at the carotid artery on the neck and record results
5. Have each person do 8inch step ups for 4 minutes
6. Take pulse rate and record
7. Repeat steps 1-6, this time with different exercises- running on the spot and sit ups
8. Repeat steps 1-7, this time with water, not Gatorade on a different day

ReplyDelete30 minutes is long
really ? hahaha
ReplyDeleteyou're my first then
but idk if this experiment will get an approval
Hmmmm... doable- but just be a little careful about the variables- it's very hard to control a person's natural heart rate, so perhaps you want to consider doing a % change in heart rate or something like that?
ReplyDeleteYAYYY
ReplyDeleteThanks Ms Zhang
I'll keep that in mind, thanks
CAN I VOLUNTEER TO DO THIS?!?! :)
