The video tutorial explores an experiment on the relationship between temperature and respiration rate in maggots. Catherine conducts the experiment by placing maggots in a boiling tube with quicklime to absorb carbon dioxide. The experiment is repeated at various temperatures, and results are plotted on a graph to determine the optimum temperature for respiration. The analysis suggests a peak at 35 degrees centigrade, but further testing is needed to confirm this. The tutorial concludes with a plan to refine the experiment by testing a narrower temperature range.
