Do Maggots move towards or away from the stimulus of gravity? Prediction I think that the maggots will move away from gravity. This is because it is an easier route for them to take. Method We used: Retort stand, Boss, Clamp, Choice chamber, Maggots, Stop watch. We are going to put twenty maggots into the choice chamber. Every thirty seconds we will count to see how many maggots there are in the top and bottom sections of the choice chamber. We will do this for six hundred seconds. After this we will change the angle of the choice chamber to make a slope. Each angle will be timed twice. The angles will range from zero to fifteen. The angles will be measured accurately by using paper angles which we will make to the sizes we need. Results Angle =0 Time (s) Number of maggots Top Bottom 30 12 8 60 4 16 90 12 8 120 4 16 150 12 8 180 4 16 210 12 8 240 12 8 270 10 10 300 8 12 330 10 10 360 6 14 390 11 9 420 13 7 450 12 8 480 10 10 510 10 10 540 8 12 570 7 13 600 12 8 Total 189 211 Angle =0 Time (s) Number of maggots Top Bottom 30 13 7 60 5 15 90 13 7 120 5 15 150 11 9 180 5 15 210 11 9 240 11 9 270 10 10 300 10 10 330 10 10 360 6 14 390 11 9 420 7 13 450 11 9 480 10 10 510 10 10 540 10 10 570 7 13 600 8 12 Total 184 216 Angle =5 Time (s) Number of maggots Top Bottom 30 12 8 60 11 9 90 12 8 120 9 11 150 4 16 180 16 4 210 12 8 240 9 11 270 11 9 300 12 8 330 12 8 360 12 8 390 14 6 420 6 14 450 2 18 480 16 4 510 17 3 540 19 1 570 14 6 600 12 8 Total 232 168 Angle =5 Time (s) Number of maggots Top Bottom 30 10 10 60 11 9 90 12 8 120 11 9 150 16 4 180 15 5 210 10 10 240 12 8 270 12 8 300 11 9 330 10 10 360 9 11 390 15 5 420 13 7 450 12 8 480 18 2 510 11 9 540 12 8 570 14 6 600 12 8 Total 246 154 Angle =10 Time (s) Number of maggots Top Bottom 30 10 10 60 15 5 90 12 8 120 12 8 150 12 8 180 11 9 210 10 10 240 13 7 270 7 13 300 11 9 330 14 6 360 14 6 390 12 8 420 12 8 450 13 7 480 13 7 510 16 4 540 14 6 570 11 9 600 18 2 Total 250 150 Angle =10 Time (s) Number of maggots Top Bottom 30 10 10 60 14 6 90 12 8 120 12 8 150 9 11 180 10 10 210 10 10 240 13 7 270 11 9 300 15 5 330 16 4 360 12 8 390 8 12 420 13 7 450 13 7 480 16 4 510 14 6 540 11 9 570 11 9 600 18 2 Total 248 152 Angle =15 Time (s) Number of...
