so i have a really awful bio teacher. she goes so far off topic and never really teaches, she talkes more about her personal experiances than about biology...

the problem now is she has asked us to do a biology experiment design and i have no clue on how to go about it!!!! the topic she has asked us to design on is enzyme inhibition, i have an idea on what i want to do, but i don't know how to lay out the design...
please help!!!!!!!

Do you do Higher or Standard Biology?

The main idea for these experiments is to see if you can think of a logical way of carrying out an experiment without being led through it by a teacher. How you lay put what you want to say is entirely up to you. In one of my experiments a friend laid all of his information out in tables and I did everything except the results in bulletpoints, we both got the same mark.

That being said it's still important that you include all of the sections that you've completed in an experimant write-up in earlier years such as equipment list, safety check, experiment desigh, method etc. Remember to include equipment errors and capacities and all the little things like that as it's those that can loose you the easy marks. It's also usually a good idea to include a design of your results table although for us it wasn't a requisite. If you use any pictures you didn't draw yourself remember to cite them

It's usually a good idea to have someone who does another science read over it and see if they could easily follow your train of thought and your experiment, also have them check if you have all the quantities correct and all the units included.

Hope that helps.

hey.. sorry for replying soooo late been a crazy coupleof weeks. thanks for your response.
I do higher biology
your comment really helped me thanks, I managed to breeze through the design.
