Cellular Respiration rate of meal worms

Respiration rate = %/min/g
Slope of graph = y = %/min
I challenged my Bio 30 students to calculate the carbon dioxide and oxygen requirements for 3 meal worms.  The Vernier probes worked excellent. 

Using water baths of different temperatures the metabolic rate was graphed and best fit lines were used to compare temperature effects.
