@Sjuday2527, @drishtantmkawale and I had this conversation on stem chat a day after the dead Moina incident with him. After which we decided to carry out an experiment about effects of every wavelength of light on Moina in major Red, Green and Blue since this is how we measure colors in computers by setting the intensities of this three colors on a range of 0-255.
This thread centers on designing an experiment to study just that and ways to carry it out, letting people know about it and to discuss anything related to it.
Today after meeting with @Sjuday2527 and @drishtantmkawale we carried out the experiment with Moina where we kept them for 5 minutes of exposure in blue light and there was no change in behavior recorded what so ever except for the normal attraction towards light source.
I would also like to suggest a model for the experiment that would be done with the help of one light source, a box with 3 compartments, some kind of flat container and 3 mobiles.
Yesterday, after keeping the moinas in blue illumination… they did not get paralyzed but when I asked @Sjuday2527 about their motility (rapid movement), he said that their movement was a little be slower.
Maybe we should have tried keeping them some more time in the illumination.
what is the objective?
what is the research question?
why not mention it in the plan before carrying out an experiment?
please help all of us to understand what exactly you are trying to address?
