Troy University Generation of Electricity from Citrus Fruits Paper

The purpose of this assignment is to allow you to utilize the process skills that you have learned to design and carry out a scientific investigation. By actually conducting an experiment, you have the opportunity to make observations, classify variables, measure changes, predict results, infer causes of results, and communicate findings.

Each experiment should include a title, a short literature reviewthat covers the content (with citations) that students will need to understand in order to form a hypothesis, a full description of your experimental design, a hypothesis, a listing of all variables(independent, dependent, and control), a log of observations, a graph of results, and a conclusion based on your observations and how they relate to your hypothesis. Although there is not a minimum length requirement, all areas must be thoroughly addressed.
