Second Award
Colony collapse is at an all time high devastating ecosystems and this project discovered a means to help the survival of honey bees through the supplementation of cysteine, which significan…
Animal Sciences
Fourth Award
Tobacco abuse alone currently accounts for 1 in 5 deaths annually in the US. Despite this, present methods of rehabilitation have proven ineffective with over a 90% likelihood of relapse. To…
Zoology
Second Award
Objectives/Goals The objective of my project was to see how ants with no antennae or with only one antenna acted in a test of finding food.I also wanted to observe their natural behavior and…
Animal Sciences
Tumor metastasis by migration through basement membranes, in a process known as cell invasion, contributes to the lethality of cancers. Cell invasion, a conserved behavior found in many deve…
Animal Sciences (inferred)
Consumption of Sodium Nitrite (NaNO₂) can cause elevated blood nitrite levels in humans, induce oxidative stress and disturb metabolic pathways, particularly in infant populations. NaNO₂ is…
Animal Sciences
Late 1970s, bullfrogs brought in jeju as a food, but recently their commercial value disappears, so they were thrown out. At this present they live in pond around Hangyeong-myeon and Daejeon…
Animal Sciences
Weaver ants (Oecophylla smaragdina Fabr.) are large arboreal ants that live together as a colony on trees. Weaver ant societies have division of labor, communication between individuals, lea…
Zoology
Fourth Award
Objectives/Goals I wanted to learn if the wing beat frequency (WBF) of honeybees can predicts their morphology and thus determine what shape of flower the bee pollinates. Methods/Materials I…
Animal Sciences
Every year, many birds across the world undergo incredible migrations, by means that scientists still do not completely understand. A better understanding of how birds migrate would lead to…
Zoology
Honorable_mention Award
Objectives/Goals My research and experiment was based on creating an affordable way to mitigate the carriers of many waterborne diseases - mosquitoes. I used materials available to the impov…
Animal Sciences
Mastitis (inflammation of the mammary gland) is an economically important health issue in dairy herds. Previous studies found correlations between high somatic cell count (indication of infl…
Zoology
Third Award
Objectives/Goals The objective of this project is to find the best way to place Mycelium in a bee farm environment and to see its effect on honey bees and the Varroa Mites. I implemented a M…
Zoology
Second Award
Objectives/Goals In my project I investigate the behavioral differences that arise from the RNAi silencing of the Synapsin gene ortholog, SNN-1, in the Caenorhabditis elegans nematode worm.…
Animal Sciences
Fourth Award
This research was conducted in the hopes of identifying a sustainable option for producing animal protein for developing countries and those wanting to have a sustainable food source. Develo…
Mammalian Biology
Honorable_mention Award
Objectives/Goals Our objective is to prove that if you change the topography in a major migrator route for mule deer, they will adapt over time. Methods/Materials 1. Check trail cameras 2. R…
Mammalian Biology
Objectives/Goals Whales are the sentinels of the health of marine environments. Because whales are at the top of the food pyramid, they have a vast impact on marine health. My research is fo…
Zoology
Objectives/Goals The objective of this project was to test the hypothesis that Chickens can learn to associate color with the location of their food. Methods/Materials Six chickens, were div…
Animal Sciences
The goal of my project was to determine the if preference of red in poultry is instinctual and, therefore, present from the time chicks hatch or if it is learned. I researched many experimen…
Mammalian Biology
Objectives/Goals The objective of this study is to determine if all dogs can see color by testing subjects from different dog groups in order to observe how they see and respond to colors. M…
Zoology
Objectives/Goals Major pollinators such as bees and butterflies which contribute to the yield and quality of leading crops globally are declining in dismaying quantities. Scientists believe…
Animal Sciences
After major nature disturbances such as hurricanes, flora is damaged, as a consequence honey bees too. The objective of this research was to identify which wild plants are preferred by honey…
Animal Sciences
As a students from Celebes (Indonesia), we are interested about an endemic bird which are called Maleo. Maleo senkawor (Macrocephalon maleo S. muller, 1846) is an endemic animal from Celebes…
Zoology
First Award
Objectives/Goals Under UV light, scorpions fluoresce a bright bluish-green. A popular conjecture is that this allows them to sense UV light with their cuticle. Sensing UV with their cuticle…
