Experimental results

This is the data I collated from the whole experiment. Two beakers (Beaker 1 and Beaker 2) were exposed to the same frequency and conditions at one go. In other words, there were 2 identical set-ups). After which, the data from each beaker was collated over the period of 48 hours. This was to increase the consistency of data and reliability of results, eliminating any other external factors that could affect the results, by increasing the number of times each frequency was tested through increasing the number of set-ups.

The data might look really perfect but that is due to the limitation that I cannot be sure that I added 3000 shrimp eggs into the beaker. That might be more or less because the eggs are too small for me to count and I can only estimate. Therefore, there is a certain room of error in these results. The gap between the number of eggs that hatched from each frequency in the same period of time is clear and distinct with a considerable distance between most.

In Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, the lower the Hz of the frequencies are, the lesser the total number of brine shrimp eggs within a shorter period of time. In other words, lower frequencies result in slower hatching speed of the brine shrimp. In Fig 2, 171 Hz resulted in 15 hatched shrimps whereas 186 Hz resulted in 19 hatched in the same period of 12 hours.
