After listing questions that we have about our experiment and the general project, we asked more specific questions about abiotic and biotic factors and also listed examples of biotic and abiotic factors that most of us will have in our projects. Here they are:
Some abiotic factors:
"factors that are not living"
temperature
atmosphere
soil content
"growing medium"
amount of moisture in the air
density
light exposure
weather conditions
heat
atmospheric pressure
amount of gases in air
amount of sunlight
Some biotic factors:
"relating to or resulting from living things"
relating to photosynthesis
amount of oxygen produced during photosynthesis
growth rate- how will you measure it? --weight, height, something that can be measured-- how green the plant is, the diameter of the stems, number, width of the leaves
glucose content
amount of carbon dioxide taken in, used up
population size
size of the roots, how big, how thick
number of eggs produced
birth rate- how will you measure it? the number of eggs being produced
life span
amount of food and water needed to grow......
