Science Fair Project Research

Which fruit, banana, pear or apple, will mold faster? Does fruit type effect mold growth?

According to article, “In a high-quality program, there is a focus on developing healthy and strong human relationships (p. 40). The program takes place in Condor Elementary School. They used the cafeteria to give them a snack, and make Woven Baskets for children in Protective Services. They had plenty of space to do their project, there were many tables and benches for them to openly do their work, as well as move around. They had a 12-child/2-teacher ratio, which facilitates the supervision of the children. They provided all the material (had plenty of them). They also had board games, plenty of art supplies, and books. In addition, they were provided with outdoor physical activities.

Science is such a unique and highly captivating subject that so many young students find interesting and yet it is also a subject that the vast majority of students get discouraged by as well as lose interest in as they get older. There are so many different areas of science it is easy to be overwhelmed and get discouraged if you easily do not understand something. For this reason, I had decided I need to research a Citizens Science Project that I could bring not only bring into my future classroom but share with my students and their families as well.

The Lab One was done on Laboratory Techniques and Measurements. The first experiment with my Lab partner; we got opportunity to experiment how to conduct measurements in length by using metric conversion. We started in cm units and changed into mm by x10, and moving decimal point x1 to right. To find in meter we moved from cm to meter two decimal points to the left or double check our self divided by 100 and all records in data table 1. The second experiment was to measure temperature of how cold and hot tap water can be by using thermometer in Celsius units. From this experiment, gained knowledge that tab water doesn’t boil to 100 Celsius related to containing different

I do science fair because I love to invent. From designing, to programming and troubleshooting, I enjoy making new things. When I fix a strenuous bug, I feel accomplished. The tougher the bug is, more the satisfaction I get when I resolve it.

My investigative question is does microwaved water stunt plant growth? I was interested in learning more about this topic because I wanted to know if microwaves can put chemicals in your food causing you to not get all of the nutrients from the food. The purpose of my experiment is to see if water set to a boil on the stove, water set to a boil in the microwave, or water from both the microwave and stove will make plants grow more, also to see if the microwave puts bad chemicals into your food. My independent variable is the type of water used. My dependant variable is the height of the plant. My hypothesis is, if plants are grown with microwaved water then they will not grow as much as plants grown with water heated from the stove.

Margaret Milcoff, a student of Mill Creek Middle School, participated in an activity called the science fair. Her topic was “Does temperature affect the growth of basil plants?” Margaret has a rich desire to absorb all of the facts of the future, so she did this particular science fair experiment to find out if simple plants, such as basil, would be able to survive the deadly affects of global warming. Margaret used the scientific method through her trials of the science fair. So without further a due here is Margaret’s very successful and meticulous science fair journey.

Cut out a 4-inch construction paper square of each of the following colors: white, yellow, blue, red, and black.

My science fair experiment is a homemade polygraph test. It will measure the sweat responses to different questions. Throughout the experiment I will be asking questions, first testing, then the actual experiment. It will not be as sophisticated as the polygraph tests that the government has, but it still has the same function and purpose. I will be testing Kole Rodriguez for my experiment.

the effects of various gases on water, to experiment if different gases would change the pH of liquid solutions. To carry out the investigation, three gases, nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon dioxide, were dissolved into 100 mL of distilled water each. While the gases were being added to the water, there were fast-paced bubbles speeding around because the gas was present in the bubbles. Once the liquid was saturated, it was, then, measured for any changes in pH. If the pH was at 7, the pH was neutral. If the pH was higher than 7, it was alkaline. Finally, if the pH was lower than 7, it was acidic. The independent variable was the type of gas and the dependent variable was

Kilmer Middle School offers a variety of different after-school activities. These activities involve a wide variety of topics, from sports to math to science. All of these after-school activities are enjoyable, but one stands out to me - Science Olympiad! Science Olympiad is enjoyable because of the knowledge participants learn, the competition that is involved, and the teamwork required.

This year, for my Science Fair Project I plan to do a study on how varying system parameters affect the dynamics of a multi-tank liquid-level hydraulic system. The purpose of this type of system is to maintain a constant fluid flow. In order to maintain this fluid flow the tanks have to preserve a certain liquid level, this necessary level depends on the other variables. My system will consist of: an inflow valve, the tanks, valves to go between the tanks, and an outflow valve.

Above are the trials I had on the cell before I did the final and last trial. It seems that the Duracell lasted the longest during the second trial, and the first trial they came to a close tie. So for the final and last trial I would have to see how long the batteries last by doing the expeirment percisely as I can.

The overall purpose of the lab is to have the students practice designing an experiment, gathering data, and then analyzing that data to form a conclusion using the scientific method. It also served to understand key terms such as hypothesis, dependent variable, and independent variable. The specific objective of this lab is to determine whether certain human body parts experience allometric or isometric growth. Allometric growth defines when certain parts of an organism grow at unequal rates in comparison to its whole, while isometric growth is when all parts of an organism grow at the same rate in comparison to the entire organism. The specific purpose of the lab is to determine whether or not specific human body parts experience allometric or isometric growth by comparing the ratios of height to two specific body parts, in the students’ case the right hand length and head circumference, in students and newborns. The students formulated the tentative answer that if a team of four compared their height to right hand length ratio, as well as, their height to head circumference ratio, to those of a newborn’s, then the students will discover that the right hand and head experience allometric growth in humans.

Every girl loves to feel beautiful. Whether it is occasional or an everyday thing, makeup is a great way to make all people feel beautiful. Makeup is one of many ways for people to express themselves. It is an art that anyone can do. Although, just about anyone can dabble a little in makeup, there are a few important basic steps to perfecting your makeup.
