The Metric of Mealworms
Overview
This project sets out to test the effect that light intensity has on the growth of mealworms. By letting the meal worms grow in 3 different magnitude of lumens and one group in the dark, their natural habitat, and measuring them at the end of each week we can record and calculate the amount in which each group grows in their respective lights or lack of light.
