Ocean acidification is a stark reality and is only predicted to increase. This research will evaluate how future increase in acidification will affect organism’s reproductive abilities. Sea…
Mammalian Biology
Fourth Award
Objectives/Goals With this experiment, I was aiming to gather information on how sounds could affect brainwaves. Previous studies have shown a correlation between brainwaves and mood. My goa…
Zoology
Objectives/Goals This project investigates whether there is a stable average number of body mites on roaches and whether mites are morphologically different for males or female roaches becau…
Zoology
Objectives/Goals The objective of this experiment is to determine if the medications: albuterol,erythromycin, and atorvastatin, all of which slow down mitochondrial function, have a positive…
Mammalian Biology
Objectives/Goals The objective of this project is to test the effect of heavy metals such as lead and copper on the neuronal cells. This project will also use 3 natural remedies and 1 medici…

Macroautophagy is an essential process in eukaryotic cells, involving the degradation and recycling of cytosolic components during stress conditions such as nutrient deprivation. Obtaining a…
Animal Sciences
Vertebrate frugivores play an important role in forests by dispersing seeds and helping improve germination through gut passage. Some frugivores may also be seed predators, where the seed is…
Animal Sciences
Acheta domesticus is better known as the “common cricket” which is an orthoptera insect. High concentrations of Acheta domesticus can cause damage in crops. The purpose of this study was to…

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of sunscreen products containing Oxybenzone on the coral Acropora cervicornis. Experimental fragments of A. cervicornis were obtained…
Mammalian Biology
Second Award
Objectives/Goals The object of this project is to use color genetics to prove that rabbits will either ovulate more eggs when bred a second time 12-24 hours later or that the unfertilized eg…
Animal Sciences
The purpose of this experiment was to determine the extent that colors, location, and/or smells affect how bees locate food. Three tests were conducted using a regular, white popup table, cl…
Animal Sciences
I chose to experiment with cricket reproduction because I have a lot of reptiles and amphibians to feed, and it would be less expensive to breed my own crickets rather than buy them every we…
