Muscle Fatigue (PASPORT sensors)
Use a force sensor to determine grip strength and compare muscle fatigue in hand muscles caused by isotonic (“same tension”) and isometric (“same...
Regulation of Body Heat (PASPORT sensors)
Use 2 PASPORT fast response temperature sensors to understand the extent that external conditions,...
Volume of Breath (PASPORT sensors)
Use a PASPORT spirometer to explore the pulmonary function test (PFT) and the volume of breath. Note: This investigation has been updated for Wireless...
Determining Soil Quality
In this lab, students use carbon dioxide, conductivity, and pH sensors to determine the quality of different soil samples.
Water Treatment
In this lab, students will model several water treatment methods. Then they will use pH, conductivity, and turbidity sensors to assess the effectiveness...
Freshwater Quality Monitoring
In this lab, students assess the local water quality using measurements from pH, conductivity, temperature, dissolved oxygen, and turbidity sensors.
Water and pH
In this lab, students will investigate the conductivity and pH of local water sources before determining the buffering capacity of each sample using a...
Respiration of Germinating Seeds
In this lab, students will monitor the respiration rate of germinating seeds in different conditions. Then, they'll analyze their data as it pertains to...
Plant Pigments and Photosynthesis
In this lab, students will separate plant pigments from a sample using paper chromatography and measure the light reactions of photosynthesis using a colorimetric...
Plant Respiration and Photosynthesis
In this lab, students will monitor a plant's carbon exchange within a closed system in both light and dark conditions to determine the dominant metabolic...
