Experimental design: Part 2


Let's discover what happens as you increase the number of ticks.


Questions

Please answer the questions below.

Set chambers to dry/dry. Start with 20 roly-polies. Time for 5 ticks, make observations. Repeat at least three times.

Record your observations.


Make a prediction regarding the distribution of roly-polies when you change in the amount of time. Write predicted results when you increase the amount of time.


Run the model for 30 ticks.  Make observations and repeat the experiment at least 3 times.

Run the model for 1000 ticks.  Make observations and repeat the experiment at least 3 times.

What conclusion can you make based on your observations?
