Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals The purpose of this project was to determine if the percentage of water in different varietes of oranges varied. Methods/Materials Materials: 1. Navel and Valencia oranges-…
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals How is Phaseolus limensis (lima bean) growth affected by the varying pH levels of the water it receives? This will help us understand the impact of acid rain on plant growth…
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals California is in a drought and water conservation is critical. Landscape watering is the largest use of water for average households. Given this, I want to find out if water…
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals Carrots will grow sideways when grown in a constantly spinning cage. Based on my research, I believe that the stem of the plant will grow toward the light but the roots will…

Third Award
Objectives/Goals The objective is to determine which manure, chicken, donkey, goat, horse, pheasant, or sheep, has the greatest effect on radishes' biomass. Methods/Materials Each type of ma…
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals The objective of our project was to see how different amounts of rotation might differently affect the growth of plants. We placed Brassica rapa plants on a turntable for va…
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals In order to measure the angles of leaves in rotation around a stem I visited the Fullerton Arboretum with my father and sister. We identified a variety of plants, and took p…
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals How do you keep a green lawn, save almost half of your water bill and conserve water? The answer is to use greywater, any used water around the house (except toilet water).…
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals The theme of this exhibit is ethanol production using different materials. Ethanol is alcohol that is produced from sugars by the process of fermentation. This experiment is…
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals The objective is to determine how effective various types of bottled water is for grass growth and does it hold an advantage over different types of water? I predict the gra…
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals The goal of my project is to see how different environmental factors effect the nutrients in plants by growing tomato and egg plants with magnets and acid rain. Methods/Mate…
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals If fruit ripening can be altered in a natural way, such as exposure to only certain light wavelengths, then harmful ripening techniques, such as the use of chemicals, will b…
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals The objective is to grow radishes in pressurized vessels to determine if increased air pressure will be helpful or harmful to the plants. Plants will also be grown in identi…

Second Award
Objectives/Goals The purpose of my science project was to determine if light deprivation would kill parrot feather. I looked at blocking out light for 7, 14, and 21 days. I predicted that af…
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals Our objective was to learn if different members of the brassica (mustard) family are different from each other in their morphology, physiology, growth, and genomics. This gr…
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals My objective was to see which type of grass would grow the tallest, densest, and greenest with the least amount of water. I wanted to determine if one grass is more drought…
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals The rate of growth of plants will vary depending on the effectiveness of substrate to facilitate the absorption nutrients & water. My objective is to measure & compare plant…
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals My objective was to determine whether plants grow better in natural sunlight, or artificial light. My hypothesis was that plants would grow best in sunlight because it conta…
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals My project was to determine if certain plants remove more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere than others. I believe that some plants have greater potential for reducing glob…
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals The objective of my experiment is to determine what affect increased atmospheric carbon dioxide levels have on plant growth. Methods/Materials Controlled environments were d…
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals This project was done to see if plants grow better with regular tap water or if they like sugar and electrolytes and grow more when fed Gatorade. And also determine if the d…
