Essay / Research Paper Abstract
Approximately 4 pages in length. Paper reports on a basic (biology) laboratory experiment. Writer hypothesizes that fish gill movement will increase when water temperature does same. It is concluded that varying water temperature does have an effect on percular movements and breathing patterns of (gold)fish. Bibliography lists 2 sources.

lowering and augmenting the temperature from those as minute as 9.0 degrees Celsius, to a humid 27 degrees Celsius, we counted the fishs oral and opercular movements accordingly.
For the purpose of maintaining scientific integrity, the results of this experiment are focused into two groups; that of our experimental group and of course,
the control group. While there existed some noteworthy variations between the tow groups, this report shall (among other things) demonstrate the consistencies between them.
II. Hypothesis & Support Based on our previous understanding of how fish breathe, we started our experiment with the hypothesis that
any increase in temperature would lead to an increase in gill movement and so forth. Of course, we hypothesized the converse to be true as well; a decrease in
temperature would lead to an increase in gill and related movements. Through consulting two resources to more precisely define a fish and its breathing patterns,
I specifically learned that by nature, a fish is a cold-blooded animal that has a backbone, and breathes by means of gills. In most cases, a fish has two
pairs of fins in place of arms and legs, as well as several other fins. Most fish breathe by means of gills. They consist of many tiny filaments
supplied with blood vessels. Water enters the open mouth. Then the fish closes its mouth and the water is forced over the filaments and out the opercular.
Oxygen dissolved in the water is absorbed into the blood stream through the delicate membrane of the filaments. Realizing that lower temperatures probably relate to more oxygen, I find
