Life Science Fair Experiments

Post by jmalo »

Hi!
Over the summer, I was given the assignment to conduct a life science experiment for my AP Biology class. This project must be a short term project that can be completed in 3 weeks or less. I'm really looking for a new, original idea that pertains a lot to biology. I haven't been able to find any ideas that really interest me. If anyone could give me some advice or ideas it would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!!

Hi,

Have you tried the topic selection wizard on the Science Buddies website?

Or, just browse through the Project Ideas Library and look for something that looks interesting to you. Look for project ideas that can be completed in a short time. With your deadline, you could do a cooking or zoology project, but probably not a plant project.

Why not take advantage of the warm weather and do an insect project that would be difficult to do during the winter? Any of these projects could be a lot of fun:

Good luck. Let us know if you need more help.
