Bean Passing- Data Analysis

1. How does the the number if beans being passed change as your finger combinations change?

The number of bean passing changed by our finger combination was by when we were passing our beans back and forth for different fingers we got different result. For example: UR1-UR5 Me and my partner got 108 passes in one minute. Another example is for UR2-UR3 Me and my partner got 25 passes in one minute beacuse, if the bean falls down from our fingers. We start over from zero. No matter what number you are on.

2.What are some conclusions you can develop from looking at this data?

One conclusion that can be said from looking at our data is that we use UR1-UR2 finger combinations than any other UR phalanges combination. However, we are more adapted to UR1-UR2.

3. What might 2 or 3 sources of error that occurred during this experiment?

Some error that occurred in my group was that the bean fell many times for our hand. Also another error occured was my partner and I sometimesfor got what number we were on.

4. How does this lab demonstrate "ADAPTATIONS"?

This lab demonstrates "adaptation" by no matter what kind of person you are you will use the fingers that you are used to writing with and if you try to write with the hand you don't write, with that is going to be really hard to hold your pencil. Also with out a thumb you won't be able to hold a spoon. Us humans are really adapted to UR1 and UR2.
