==Abstract== | |||
I would like to explore how Euglenas would behave in the electrostatic water. The electricity would be created by Kelvin generator which converts falling water to electrostatic charge and using the electric wires to conduct electricity. Then we could test its functionality and how much current electricity would be created. Then we could try to redirect the electrostatic field into a DC current and then let it flow in the water and see how Euglenas behave. Based on the experiments we could explore how Euglenas would behave in different intensity of electricity and Euglenas could stand how much electricity in water. | I would like to explore how Euglenas would behave in the electrostatic water.

Unfortunately，it also did not work even though they were almost the same style of kelvin generator comparing with that one on Youtobe. | Unfortunately，it also did not work even though they were almost the same style of kelvin generator comparing with that one on Youtobe. | ||

This kelvin generator worked but not performed very well. The volume of current only got to the half past one. I was a little bit upset, so I did not take picture to record the outcome of the figure of current. | This kelvin generator worked but not performed very well.

In fact, they were so common. But the most important thing is that I could not find these common materials to do this experiment. It heard just like a joke, but it is exactly the truth.

I stayed in the wood workshop for the whole day to use the machine to cut wood and made holes in plastic pipe. I did not have enough strength, so I took a longer time to fixed the wood board. | I stayed in the wood workshop for the whole day to use the machine to cut wood and made holes in plastic pipe.
