Reflex Experiment

In inquiry we have been learning about the different body systems and this experiment provided evidence to support our learning of how our body systems help us in everyday life. First experiment was the visual test which meant that our partner would drop the ruler without telling us and with the other partner looking at the ruler. After that we participated in the hearing test. The hearing test needed one of the partners to the
