greentea project

Post by Christina Park »

Hello, now I am deciding my final project topic.
I have to choose between Leaf burn and iron toxicity.
Green tea is a natural potent iron chelator, so I want to test green tea on the plant that has excess amount of iron.
SHould I state my topic as "effect of greentea on plant that has leaf burn" or "effect of greentea on plant that has iron toxicity"
Which one should be more appropriate?

In order to decide between your two topics, you need to know if iron toxicity and leaf burn are related. If leaf burn and iron toxicity are the same thing, then it does not matter how you word your question. However, if iron toxicity is related to the concentration of iron and leaf burn is related to the concentration of some other nutrient, then I would reccommend that you go with iron toxicity.

But in the end, the choice is really up to you. Which topic interests you the most? You will find that you will do your best when working on the topic you like most!
All the best,
Terik
