    The document summarizes the results of a lab experiment where a fork, knife, and spoon were used to pick up different colored pieces of pasta from grass. The fork was able to pick up the most pasta overall. There was variation in results due to the different utensil designs. The experiment demonstrated survival of the fittest and how organisms can adapt to their environments, as the green pasta was hardest to see in the grass and thus best able to camouflage and survive. A change in the environment, like replacing the grass with straw, could alter the results by making the green pasta easier to spot instead of the orange.

    Conclusion:
    The results of this lab show that the fork was able to pick up more of the
    prey compared to the knife and spoon. In this lab there was a lot of variation
    because there was the fork that had pointed edges, a spoon with a round edge
    and a knife with a sharp edge. During this lab we got to experience survival
    of the fittest, because we all had to experience a change in the environment
    where we had to use different utensils to pick up pasta. With the pasta, there
    was adaptive value because since we were in grass the green pasta was able
    to camouflage itself so we couldnt see it as easy as the other colors so it was
    able to survive. With this lab, and with the results we can see that people
    have inheritable characteristics so we can adapt to our environment. If a
    change in the environment occur and there is straw rather than grass, the
    results would change because the green pasta would be easier to see rather
    then the orange.
