Activity TwoGroup #__________Group Members:________________________________________________________________________________________________________1. Form plasticine (Playdough) clay into various phytoplankton shapes (seehandout); Make at least three models. Make sure that one shape is spherical(shaped like a ball). Predict which shape will settle first, second, and third.2. Place the phytoplankton clay model in the graduated cylinder and record the timethat the model travels 10 cm and 20 cm with a stopwatch.Shape #1 10 cm time=______ 20 cm time______Shape #2 10 cm time=______ 20 cm time______Shape #3 10 cm time=______ 20 cm time______3. Record the mean and range for each distance.10 cm 20 cmMean__________ Mean________Mode__________ Mode________4. Compare the results to activity one. Did the clay models settlefaster or slower? Why??? Please explain._______________________________________________________________________‘27
