Plant Invertebrates
By: Shawnae Adams
Purpose/Goal
I choose to do this project because I generally wanted to see if heat affected invertebrates in general. I generally wanted to learn what heat conditions different invertebrates were attracted to. The main goal of conducting this experiment was to see if the heat index determines the type of invertebrates that would be on plants in various areas.
Hypothesis
If plants in different areas were sampled in different temperatures for invertebrates, then there would be more invertebrates out when it is really hot no matter what because inverts that is when they usually appear.
Project Summary
This project is mainly about invertebrates in different weather conditions, what type of invertebrates are attracted to different weather conditions, identifying different types of plants, identifying different types of invertebrates, and learning where these invertebrates are from.
This project is to help determine whether or not the humidity is what attracts the different invertebrates to the different locations. Other people can contribute to this project by going to different locations and sampling the plants around them to see if there are any invertebrates on those plants. There should also be notes taken of the weather and determine if there are any changes between what invertebrates they see around that area on the plants.
