I found a quarter in my apartment to act as an object I could use to show the organisms to scale. I made sure I had my phone with me as well, and I left. I went to the Durfee Conservatory on campus and strolled through each greenhouse, observing the present plants. Once I entered Greenhouse 4, I saw the Mimosa pudica. Having previously learned about M. pudica, I knew that this species has strong sensors for touch. I held up the quarter next to the plant and took a photo. I took a photo of my hand next to the quarter. After taking the necessary photos, I stroked along the stem of the leaf on the M. pudica and photographed the reaction that occurred. After taking the photos, I went back to my apartment and downloaded the photos onto my computer.
