Planning I am going to investigate respiration in crickets and how temperature varies the rate of respiration. The calculation for aerobic respiration is: Oxygen + Glucose Carbon dioxide + water + energy 6O2 + C6H12O6 6CO2 +6H2O + (J) I will do the experiment safely by making sure that the water will not be too hot or too cold, this is a safety precaution for me as well as the crickets. As we don't want to cause the crickets too much distress or pain. It will be a fair test and accurate because I will: * Use the same crickets * Same mass of crickets * Let the crickets return to room temperature * Reset the measuring device after each experiment * Do each experiment 3 times to get an average I predict that the lower the temperature the lower the rate of respiration. Equipment list: * 2 beakers- a lager one that will hold the different temperatures of water, a smaller one...
