Corn Earworm Project By: Gause Elementary

Problem 1: What type of animal is eating the corn? Should it be eliminated?

Hypotheses

Life cycle of Heliocoverpa zea

Conclusion The corn earworm moth is food for bats and other animals. If the moth is completely eliminated, it could seriously affect the animals that rely on it for food. Before eliminating the moth, research should be done on the animals that feed on the moth.

Problem 2: Why do you usually find only one larvae per corn cob?

Hypotheses

Conclusion The corn earworms are cannibals. The larvae eat each other.

Problem 3: Which of the crops listed below can earworm larvae survive on? Apple Corn Tomatoes Strawberries Potatoes Green beans

Conclusion: We need to retest and change the food every day to prevent rotting or retest using live plants.

Problem 4: Will corn earworm moths drink Sweet-n-low and water, Equal and water, and sugar water?

Conclusion (12 moths tested) 7 Sugar 2 Sweet-n-Low 1 Equal
