It has to be related to biology and also i am willing to spend a little money on it…not too much though

When I had a science fair I did something to do with what your lungs look like when you smoke. You put a couple of cotton balls in a sandwich baggie and then get a cigerate and make the cotton balls turn black which is suppose to be what your lungs look like when you smoke. You just put some more information of your own about smoking and your done! I got a C on that and won 3rd place when I was in 5th grade

I’m in 8th grade and I need to come up with a good idea for a science project. My teacher takes this very seriously. Any suggestions?

According to the theory of evolution, which of the following processes leads to adaptive changes in the genetic makeup of a species over time?
A. Genetic differences among
individuals in a population make
some individuals more likely to
survive and reproduce than others.
B. Physical changes in individuals
that are caused by environmental
conditions are passed on to their
offspring through their genes.
C. Environmental changes produce
mutations in the genes of individuals
that help their offspring
survive and reproduce.
D. Populations of individuals with
relatively low mutation rates eventually
replace populations that have
unstable genetic material.
What’s the best way to understand this theory and Natural selection as well? aren’t there 5 parts to natural selection? Do you have a website link that best explains all this? b/c not only would I like to understand this question, but others like it

The best answer is A.

Natural selection is very simple. Those organisms with the best genes for the organisms’ survival in its environment are more likely to be passed on to fertile offspring. Changes in the genes of the germ cell line are passed on to the next generation, and if the genetic changes make offspring more fertile in their environment, the frequency of the gene will rise in the population.

Note that changes in the environment may favor new genes to cope with the changes. Also, keep in mind that the genetic changes are random, but the selection process is not.

This is survival of the fittest, where fitness only means producing fertile offspring.

what are the parts of it that all teachers are looking for and that have to be in the packet and on the board? both please seperately

the scientific method of course. all the steps hypothesis, procedure, observation, results, conclusion…. etc. all that and the presentation. if it was challenging and if you did an awesome job. presentation always count. it has to be neat and awesome looking. even the simplest of science fair project make it to display if it’s presentable.

How do I get a certificate after being away from teaching for about 25 years?

too vague – here is what is needed to answer correctly:

Were you certificated before? All states have a method for recertification.

which state? every state has different rules on this.

until I know more: go to your states website, look for credentialing rules.

If you have never been certificated, then its: credentialing program, tests and student teaching.

Question says it all o_O

Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Environmental Science etc.

Please answer quickly i really need to get this finished!

Try growing seeds with tap water vs bottled water and see if it makes a difference in the size of the plant.

I need a middle school science project that’s not hard and has steps.
try to give me some 7th grade’s project

http://www.terimore.com/8th-grade-science-fair-project-ideas/index.htm

i want to include my pet fish with my project i just cant find a project involving a goldfish

IF U PUT A FISH IN THE COLD IT WILL FREEZE THEN IN THE HEAT IT WILL COME BACK TO LIFE

i would like to do one involving hamsters or some kind of animals (other than snakes or ferrets)

Okay well I’ve used this sooo many times it helps you pick your project due to your personality!! It has hundreds of project ideas!

Good luck!!
