Science Buddies: "Ask an Expert"

For the One Bad Apple experiment, does the "5 cm tray" need to be 5 cm deep or 5 cm x 5cm? Thanks.

Hello sheberhard822,

For the One Bad Apple Experiment, it is listed under the "Materials and Equipment" tab a "Shallow glass or plastic tray at least 5 cm (approx. 2") deep" is needed. I would assume that the tray needs to be at least 5cm deep, but not necessarily 5cm x 5cm!
