the one about oxygen consumption and cell respiration
so  we had germinating peas at 25 and 10°C
and non germinating/dried peas at same temps
so 4 samples along with the 2 controled glass beads

ok
so im asking which should consume the most oxygen?
i think my results were wrong
in my hypothesis i put that germinating at 25 were to consume the most oxygen but the germinating at 10 consumed the most oxygen
idk why its like that
my whole class got the same results
so im wondering what happened
or is that how the lab is suppose to end up?

You wouldn't think so, but results are results. Publish what you measured and take your lumps like a real scientist.

Reaction rates for chemical reactions usually double for every 10C increase in temperature, so your results are surprising. If your instructor cares to mark any of you down for reporting these results, though, s/he had better be prepared to explain what happened in *very* convincing terms.

Stand up and demand a credible explanation like a real scientist. (See, it's not all lumps. At least, not always you that's lumpy.)
