The Sargasso Sea is affected by the usual Density-Dependant Factors; Density-Independent Factors affect it too; mostly human impact of ocean abuse and pollution. Unusual weather can also affect the sea. Like hurricanes and unusually large waves. These factors can reduce predators, producers, and increases prey. The sea experiences Exponential Growth, Making the environment grow with great speed. The Biome is in the Tropic. The ocean currents and sargassum, golden-brown seaweed, define the sea from the rest of the Atlantic. This sea is being preserved to save wild and plant life. I don’t think people understand the large impact they have on the Biosphere. They probably don’t even consider it, or even care. People just willingly pollute the oceans and air. Observations and experiments prove that pollution is a growing problem.

Power Balance Bands
1. What are your thoughts on the effectiveness of the Power Balance Bands? What evidence did you find to support this opinion?
I think that the Power Balance Bands only effect people that think it is affecting them. I found that when given the bands directly it had a noticeable affect on balance was shown. Also, if the person didn't know they were equipped with the bands, it had no effect on them.
2. Make your own hypothesis on the effectiveness of the bands and describe how you would test your hypothesis (in detail).
My Hypothesis is that the effects of the Power Bands are all mental. I believe that if you convince yourself that the bands work, they will.
First I will prove that they do not affect unaware people. I will give one band to each of a set of people at random; one will be a Power Balance Band. I think that it will have no effect on their balance capabilities. This Proves part of my hypothesis.
Next I will tell the people if they are getting a Power Band and they will believe that it will help them, therefore, it will.
3. Why is it necessary to look at all sides of the issue before forming a hypothesis or setting up an investigation?
You must first decide what side of the argument you are for. In order to decide this you need to review all the information of the issue. Also, to set up an investigation you must decide what materials and procedure you will use.
