BEST+COLLABORATED+DESIGN+CRICKETS


 * Does the frequency at which crickets chirp change with environmental temperature? **


 * INCLUDE ALL OF THE FOLLOWING WITH YOUR EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: **
 * [remember it must be a controlled experiment] **
 * 1. A hypothesis: Crickets chirp less in the winter from being cold but more in the summer from being warm. **
 * 2. Explain how to set up the experiment: **
 * ** brainstorm a list of all the variables that must be kept constant during the experiment: amount of space between you and the crickets, type of crickets, amount of time spent listning to crickets, how long crickets are exposed to tempature, age of crickets, length of cricket, same person measuring the chirping, health of cricket, smarts of human, gender of cricket, size of contaner that the crickets are kept in, weather conditions, season, time of day **
 * ** include identification of the independent variable: Enviromental Tempature **
 * ** the dependent variable: Frequency of the chirps a cricket makes. **
 * ** identify the control group: The crickets kept at room temperature(Group C) **
 * ** identify the experimental group(s): Group A( Hot Temperature) Group B( Cold temperature) **
 * 3. Provide enough details for someone else to set up your experiment: Gather 30 crickets. Split the crickets into 3 groups of 10. Then put the three groups into jars. **
 * Group A's jar is at a hot temperature. Group B's jar is at Cold temperature. And Group C's jar is at room temperature. Record how many chirps each bin has for 5 min. Record your information on a chart. **
