How do double color exposure images work?
In double color exposure images, there are two images that you can see, one red, and one blue. The different filters allow for your brain to cancel out that color and see the image with the color opposite of the filter. For example, when you hold up the blue filter, it cancels out the blue image and you can see the red one. As it is a filter, the red image might not look red, but it’s more about how filters can cancel out the same color so that you can’t see it, or so your brain can focus on one image. To the right are the images I created with my peers as my subjects, and below is a GIF of a large scale double color exposure with different filters added. |

Mitosis is regenerating in the process of splitting cells and regrowing. In mitosis, one cell has the ability to separate itself into two cells and continue the process of doubling until it has regenerated an entire limb. Through understanding mitosis, we can figure out how to replicate it in order to use regeneration in other things.
This project was to help to understand each step of mitosis, by creating a stop motion animation of the process. The stages are interphase, prophase, metaphase, anophase, and telophase, which we created in order throughout the stop motion.

What would you do differently?
If I were to do this project again, I would change two things. I would create a controlled environment in which the temperature wouldn't change drastically since my plants died. I would also when setting up the project plant a set of plants in decaffeinated coffee ground soil. This is because many studies say coffee helps plants due to the caffeine, but other sources say it's because of the nutrients in the coffee, so if I could see if decaffeinated coffee helped plants the same way it would answer my question better. |
Purpose: The purpose of this experiment was to use our learning of the differences between monocots and dicots to determine whether a mung bean and corn are monocots or dicots.
Predictions: I predicted that corn was a monocot and the mung bean was a dicot because on the first day of observations when they split, you can see the cotyledons in both. The corn had one while the mung bean had two. Later on this was confirmed by the leaf shape and venation, and the roots. Observations: The corn and mung bean moved/grew at the same speed/process. Each day they were at pretty much the same stage. |
