Something else you might want to consider is repetition of the experiment. Did you test more than once with water and more than once with gatorade? But you should consider about the order that you repeat the test and whether your muscles might be more tired from a previous test or your fitness migh...

Even if you're testing how colorblindness affects results of the Stroop test, I'd imagine that the main difference will only be that colorblind people will misname the colors they have trouble differentiating, which is obvious given their condition. Of course, if what's being tested is instead wheth...

Since the prices of different drinks are different depending on where you get them, you have an uncontrolled variable in your experiment (i.e., milk may cost $.50 at one store and $3.00 at another). To thwart this problem, you can stick to the manufacturers' suggested retail prices. By doing this, y...

As Ray said already, "American or foreign" will not suffice. Try to pick a few specific car models. It would be worthwhile to understand how car engines work and how hybrids work.

In addition to the mean, you may want to give a measure of spread. If for each color the distribution is relatively symmetrical, consider using standard deviations. If not, consider using IQR.
For the graph, one possibility would be to do a curve: # of crickets vs. color wavelength.
Hope that helps.

If I'm not mistaken, putting the apple in salt water also prevents browning.

Hopefully both human endorsement and safety are explained in the guidelines for the science fair you are entering. If not, I would imagine that human endorsement and safety are relevent only if your project somehow experiments with humans, in which case generally science fairs will require you to pr...

Box plots seem like a good choice for this experiment when it comes to comparing all 9 liquid combinations. For each you could also included a histogram. Regarding using standard deviation: Use this only if your distribution of heights for each liquid combination is relatively symmetrical and not to...
