Science Experiments

Question: SCIENCE FAIR PROJECT help! That potato experiment…?

I wanna do something with like a potato and a sweet potato. Like which one conducts electricity the best? You know that experiment with the potato (or lemon & lime maybe) making something work, but I forgot?

Answer: The secret to the potato clock is not in the potato, it’s in the electrodes that are stabbed into the potato. They’re made of different metals that react electrochemically. The potato is only a buffer across which the metals can react at the correct speed to run the clock.

A more interesting project might be “batteries from common household objects.” According to the rules of the thing, you probably have to arrive at a result by experimentation.

Question: What are the best plants to use in a science Project?

I am doing a science experiment for highschool biology , and I was wondering what was a fast growing plant that flowers and grows tall in a short matter of time that would give accurate results.Thank you

Answer: I say use any type of bean seed.
Bean plants are good as beginner plants, and flower pretty quickly if the temperature is right.
