In the lab we had a bowl of warm water and cold water and one person out of the group would put their hand in the water. We would then record the temperature of our had (that would be the external temperature) and then we would take our internal temperature and record the data. We were basically testing the effect the external temperature had on our internal temperature. When we put our hand in the cold water out the temperature change was by 10 degrees because the initial temperature was 30 degrees Celsius and after it was exposed to the icy cold water the temperature was 20 degrees Celsius. Our initial internal was 97.1 degrees Fahrenheit and after it was 94.6 degrees Fahrenheit. When we put our hand in the warm water the initial external temperature was 20 degrees Celsius and after it was 30 degrees Celsius. The initial internal temperature was 94.9 degree then after it was 97.8 degrees. If you noticed, the internal temperature didn't change as much as the external temperature. Why? Because our internal temperature needs to be within a range to be considered "normal body temperature". If our body temperature is lower our higher than that range then that isn't good for our body and our organs cannot function properly.
In this lab we took a red onion cell sample and...
