Hermit Crab Experiment
Independent Variable: desensitization from boat noises
Dependent Variable: how hermit crabs react to actual danger
Constants: boat noise, crabs
It shows that desensitization from boat noises does effect how quickly hermit crabs react to danger by reacting late.This experiment could be improved by adding different noises to see if the crabs have a sensitivity to the pitch of the noise or not.
