Orbeez!!
Heidi and I were wondering what different liquids effect the growth of polyacrylate crystals, also known as orbeez.
We put three orbeez in five different vials. Each vial contained a different liquid. Orange Juice, Yeast Water. Sugar Water, Salt Water and Fizzy Water. We learned that the Orbeez grew largest in sugar water. It grew smallest in the orange juice because in orderr to grow, it needs water. At first, we had an experiment to see what Brine Shrimp grow in better but our expirement was knocked over by an unnamed person (Olivia)(:. We learned that orbeez are not living even though they seem as if they are due to the fact that they grow. It takes more then one characteristic of living things to prove that something is living. I wonder if the amount of light effected how our orbeez grew.
