Respiration+Data+2010

Below is a Summary of the data we entered in our survey. Attached is our rubric and guide to composing a lab write-up. Remember that your main goal is to demonstrate how you understand the process of respiration as you explain the data and evaluate your hypothesis. You can create **graphs** in Excell or Word, but if you want an online tool to help you visit this link

The amount of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) used to titrate bromethyl blue from yellow green (acidic) back to blue (neutral) is directly proportional to the amount of carbon dioxide exhaled. Because Carbon dioxide is a waste product of respiration, NaOH can be used to measure aerobic respiration (higher amounts of NaOH indicates more aerobic respiration)
