This activity will guide you through a mock science lab. In this
lab you will be looking at the growth of 3 earthworms. The length
of the earthworms will be measured over several days and the
data is provided below. You have been asked to make an excel
worksheet and perform some simple calculations to show the
average growth rate. A graph showing the change in the length
against the number of days must also be produced.
15. Fill the data from the chart below into the
corresponding cells in your graph. Ensure
you are entering the data from B4 – O4, etc.
