Biology Lab Report
The lab report should be 1 page single spaced (~500 words). Use 12 pt. and Times New Roman font. It must include all 4 sections (introduction, methods, results, and discussion). Type these headings in bold in the report. You must report the summary statistic (mean ± SD) and the p value.
The graph should have a caption underneath it. The axis should be properly labeled. The graph should have error bars and you must explain the error bars in the caption of the graph (ex. “error bars indicate standard deviation”).
Please see the phenotypic plasticity lab handout for a detailed description of what to include in each section (pages 7 and 8). Refer back to these pages (and the rubric!) while writing the lab report.
