Make sure to give a good background description of each concept used in the lab. Introductions need to cover
the material that is necessary to know to understand the lab.
The results section needs to have a written out (in paragraph form) description of the results for each activity.
This is in addition to figures/tables. You can reference the figures and tables in the text of the results, but don’t
simply put in the figures/tables without an actual text description of the results. Also on the figures/tables, each
of them should be numbered and titled, and each should have a short figure legend accompanying it with a
brief statement of what the figure/table is showing. So you need to actually write out in the legend what the
take-home message was for the figure/table, or what specific result is shown.
In the discussion, be sure to discuss how your results back up or support the ideas behind the lab. You can’t
really just say your results are expected, or your results support your predictions. You need to actually go back
to the results of each activity and discuss what that result means in relation to the concepts being studied.
There are five topics, or activities that you should include. They are ‘nerve stimulation’, ‘twitch response and
recruitment’, ‘summation’, ‘tetanus’, and ‘conduction velocity’. Make sure you are understanding the results for
each activity and how to analyze them. You will again need sections for the introduction, methods, results, and
discussion. Make sure to give results for and discuss each activity. Ideally you should have paragraphs within
the results and discussion sections for each activity separately.
