Zoology
Fourth Award
Objectives/Goals My objective was to see if the presence of CO(2) in a trumpet coral polyp's environment would cause the water to become more acidic and break down the polyp's outer shell. M…
Zoology
Objectives/Goals My project was to see if the bodily process of producing silk from silkworms can be affected by the heat and light in a specific habitat and temperature. Methods/Materials F…
Zoology
Objectives/Goals The objective of this project was to determine whether female fruit flies that are injected with Listeria monocytogenes bacteria produce more successful embryos. This could…
Mammalian Biology
Honorable_mention Award
Objectives/Goals Behavioral scientists have recently begun testing canines for their ability to recognize simple forms of human social engagement cues, or body language. I wondered how dogs…
Zoology
Objectives/Goals Our objective was to observe and record the behavior of brine shrimp after exposing them to various wavelengths over different intervals of time. Methods/Materials We used s…
Mammalian Biology
Honorable_mention Award
Objectives/Goals The goal of this study is to determine if the iPad with embedded magnets can cause electromagnetic interference in patients with Implanted Cardiac Rhythm Devices (ICRDs), wh…
Mammalian Biology
First Award
Objectives/Goals Though no treatments for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) currently exist, evidence suggests that the disease is strongly rooted in genetic origins. Recently, expansions…
Zoology
Objectives/Goals The objective was to determine which food level would result in the most successful Drosophila hydei colony. It was hypothesized that the colony which receives the largest a…
Mammalian Biology
Objectives/Goals The objective was to find out if fingerprints have more of a correlation between parents and their children or siblings and each other. Hypothesis: They are more similar bet…
Zoology
Objectives/Goals The objective of my project is to find the effect of temperature on the development time of a Drosophila melanogaster. My hypothesis is that as the temperature increases the…
Zoology
Objectives/Goals My objective was to test a mealworm's resperation rate in various temperatures and see at which temperatures their respiration rate is the highest. I used the temperature wi…
Mammalian Biology
Objectives/Goals The purpose of my experiment was to determine if people with lighter colored eyes get red-eye more frequently than people with darker colored eyes. I believe that if the pup…
Mammalian Biology
Objectives/Goals This experiment was performed to discover whether a T- Band improves an individual's balance when it is worn on the wrist like stated in their advertisement. Methods/Materia…
Mammalian Biology
Objectives/Goals This project examines hand position and how it affects grip strength and muscle fatigue with repetative motion. Methods/Materials I used a Jamar hand dynamometer to measure…
Mammalian Biology
Objectives/Goals It has been documented that horses are capable of seeing color. If that is the case, then would a horse have a color preference for the food box that they eat from? Methods/…
Zoology
Third Award
Objectives/Goals Praying mantids use camouflage to avoid predation and to ambush their prey. Research shows that mantids pay attention to structural cues, by demonstrating a preference for a…
Zoology
Objectives/Goals My experiment was designed to determine how differences in snail size and in sun exposure affect how fast snails travel. My hypothesis was that bigger snails would move fast…
Zoology
Objectives/Goals My objective during my project was to see if feeding chickens different calcium enhanced foods would effect their eggshell thickness. Methods/Materials I took three chickens…
Mammalian Biology
Objectives/Goals The project goal/objective was to investigate and research the impact of wolves on the predator/prey relationship of the East Fork Winter Range and to determine their affect…
Mammalian Biology
Objectives/Goals To test the intelligence of the different kinds of canines: purebreds and mixed breeds. Methods/Materials There were four tests performed on the dogs. 1.)For the first test,…
Mammalian Biology
Objectives/Goals The purpose of my science project is to investigate if bathing a horse after exercise affects the horse's heart rate. Methods/Materials Disk arena with tractor each day befo…
Zoology
Fourth Award
Objectives/Goals As echinoderms, sea cucumbers share many characteristics with other species in their phylum, including the presence of ossicles. The objective of this experiment was to dist…
