There are two different tpyes of sand that could be found on Maui one is biogenic comes from parrot and fish they eat polyps and poop. The other one is dentntal which is made of rocks and dead coral.
Question:
Which beaches on the south side of Maui would be biogenic?
Hypothesis:
I hypothesis that Kam 3 beache will be biogenic because there is a lot birds and fishes in the water and on the beach.
Predictions
I predict that kam 3 will be biogenic because of the rocks that surround it.
Materials:
Cup,Tape,Maker,Van
Procedure:
- Gather the suplies that you need
- Get in to the van
- Drive to a beach
- Collect the sand in the cup
- Observe the surrounding of the beach
- Take pictuers of the beach
- Repeat steps 2-6 for a total of three more times
- Once back in the class test the sand by useing vingar to see if it is biogenci or dentntal
Data:
The beaches that are goup tested where Keawakapu, Kam3, Charlie Young, The Cove, Waipuilani were all biogenic.
Conclousion
In conclusion my hyopthies was correct becuase of the sourrounding. Which beaches on the south side of Maui would be biogenic? I hypothesis that Kam 3 beache will be biogenic because there is a lot birds and fishes in the water and on the beach.
Sourrces of erro:
Not puting the same amount of sand in the beacker every time to test the sand. Not the same amount of vingar in every time
