Aim: To demonstrate the effects of the anaerobic respiration (muscle fatigue)
Hypothesis: I think my fingers are going to get sore and tired.
Equipment: A spring-loaded clothes peg.
Method:
- Hold the bed as shown in the diagram below.
- Relax your fingers so that the bed closes all the way.
- Squeeze your thumb and forefinger so the peg is fully open.
- Repeat steps 2 and 3 as quickly as you can until you experience muscle fatigue.
Conclusion:
My fingers began to feel tired after a while. This is because the muscles in my fingers weren't used to going that fast and the faster they went the sorer they got. I had used up all my energy and there wasn't enough energy in my fingers to make more energy.
Evaluation: I think it all went well because nothing bad happened and that's what I expected to happen.
Hi Chloe,
ReplyDeleteGreat first blog post, next time in your discussion you should add an explanation on why you think it is happening. For example- I think my fingers were getting sore because I had used up my energy. And there wasn't enough oxygen in my fingers to make lots more energy, so it could only do anaerobic respiration.
Grade- 7/10
Okay, thank you.
