Aim: 1. Learn how exercise and resting affect muscle performance.2. Learn how to write a Lab Report
ProblemDetermine the question you are trying to answer.Use the format:
“What is the effect of ___________ on _____________________?”
What is the effect of ____________on _________________________?
exercise first
clothespin squeezing rate
What is the effect of ____________on _________________________?
resting first
clothespin squeezing rate
HypothesisHypothesis
If somebody exercises first
then she will increase the clothspin squeezing rate.
The hypothesis is a tentative statement about the expected relationship between the variables.Use the format: “If _____________________________Then ______________________________________
If somebody rests first
then she will increase the clothspin squeezing rate.
Variables
• The independent variable is ___________
• The dependent variable is _____________
Your independent variable is the variable you chose to test in your experiment.Your dependent variable is the variable you measure in your experiment.
Exercise first / resting first
clothespin squeezing rate
Design of the Experiment• Describe your experimental group in at least four
steps. • Describe your control group in at least four
steps. – Decide how many individuals you will test– What will you have them to do?
• For how long?• Give details, be specific
– What will you measure?– How many trials will conduct with each group?– How will the control and experimental group differ?
Design of the experimentsExperimental Group1. Take ____students. 2. Let them exercise first by (doing something)___ for (how long)___3. Ask them to hold a clothespin between their right thumb and index
finger. Ask them to pinch the ends together and release them.4. Count ______________________________________________5. Rest for _____ minutes.6. Repeat the experiment _______times.
