Hello Im a high school student Im in the IB program and for
Hello, I\'m a high school student. I\'m in the IB program and for our biology class, we have to conduct our own lab experiment(IB Bio IA). It cannot be replicated from any other labs that have been conducted.
I was wondering if anyone could anyone help me come up with a lab I could conduct and HOW I could conduct it? It can be anything from plants or fruit or physiology(but can\'t experiment on animals/humans and Bare in mind I\'m a high school student so I can\'t get any fancy lab equipment, I can get basic things that are in our high school chem/bio class).
It must consist of quantiative data and the lab report has to be 6-12 pages so I\'d love to do something that I could anaylze the data and fully talk about.
This is part of the rubric that the lab should follow:
5-6 5-6 The report includes sufficient relevant quantitative and qualitative raw data that could support a detailed and valid conclusion to the research question. Appropriate and sufficient data processing is carried out with the accuracy required to enable a conclusion to the research question to be drawn that is fully consistent with the experimental data The report shows evidence of full and appropriate consideration of the impact of measurement uncertainty on the analysis. The processed data is correctly interpreted so that a completely valid and detailed conclusion to the research question can be deduced. The topic of the investigation is identified and a relevant and fully focused research question is clearly described The background information provided for the investigation is entirely appropriate and relevant and enhances the understanding of the context of the investigation. The methodology of the investigation is highly appropriate to address the research question because it takes into consideration a or nearly all, of the significant factors that may influence the relevance, reliability and sufficiency of the collected data The report shows evidence of full awareness of the significant safety, ethical or environmental issues that are relevant to the methodology of the investigationSolution
To write an experiment, we must have following headings
Abbreviations used in experiment
Abstract
Introduction
Review of literature- that have to include characteristics of every method and material chose.
Material and methods- tell about the procedure
Results-
Discussion, and
Reference
You can perform various experiments in the lab. As a suggested experiment, we can do experiments on green tea extract effects on carbohydrates, fat, and protein.
For that, you have to perform following tasks:
From above experiment, we have many variables, which include
Different green tea extracts concentrations
Different carbohydrates, fat and protein concentrations
Different temperatures
Make results of particular green tea extracts concentration with particular substrate at different concentrations on equal temperatures. You can take only two or more than two variables.
