Science Buddies: "Ask an Expert"

Hi I am starting to work on my science fair project and I want to research watershed symbiotic relationships. What should I test to get the best results?
Thanks

Hi Kimmel, Welcome to the Ask an Expert forums. It sounds like the next step in your project is to clarify your question. I'm not sure exactly what is meant by "watershed symbiotic relationships." Do you plan to see how symbiotic relationships vary from one watershed to the next? Or are you studying symbiotic relationships in the near stream environment? Once you clarify that, I think the next step (if you haven't already done it) will be to conduct background research perhaps first on symbiotic relationships in general, and then on a particular symbiotic relationship that you would like to study.
Here is a decent place to get started with some general information and references about symbiosis.

I'm not sure what types of symbiosis would exist in your study area, but mycorrhizal symbiosis is fairly common and widespread.

Good luck!
