WHAT IS THE INDEPENDANT VARIABLE IN THIS EXPERIMENT? DEPENDANT? CONTROL GROUP?

Mold experiment





Material:





1. banana


2. cheese


3. bread


4. Milk


5. a cabinet to put the samples in





Procedure:





First take all your samples and make sure they are not molded yet and that they are still fresh. Pour the milk in a glass and place it in the cabinet that you have chosen to use for your experiment. Next take the banana cheese and bread and place them in all separate dishes. Then put them in the same cabinet. It is important for them to all be in the same place for more accurate results because of the temperature of the area. Wait 4-5 days and check your samples and record your results in a table below.





Record And Analyze Data:





After a week we looked at all our results. It turned out that the milk molded the most. It started to show signs of mold in three days. The cheese and bread both showed signs of mold on the 4th day and the banana which showed signs of mold the least stayed fresh till about the 6th day.

CONTROL GROUP?





PLEASE HELPWHAT IS THE INDEPENDANT VARIABLE IN THIS EXPERIMENT? DEPENDANT? CONTROL GROUP?
Independent Variable- Amount of time objects were left in the cabinet


Dependent Variable- Amount of mold


Control- NoneWHAT IS THE INDEPENDANT VARIABLE IN THIS EXPERIMENT? DEPENDANT? CONTROL GROUP?
What variable can you control? (the type of media) INDEPENDENT


What variable do you measure? (the time to onset of mold) DEPENDENT


Which measure of the independent variable do you use to demonstrate no dependent variable? This would be your CONTROL GROUP. You actually don't have one, since all samples went moldy.


A good control would have been distilled water.
