Title: The Effects of Microwaved Water on Plant Growth
Problems: 1. What are the factors that make the microwave harmful? 2. What happens to the water (when microwaved) that causes it to affect plant growth? 3. What are the effects of microwaved water on the growth of plants?
Hypotheses:
1. The micro wavelength radiation the microwave contains makes it harmful. 2. The water undergoes ionizing radiation which causes it to affect the growth of the plant 3. The growth of the plant will be affected due to the harmful radiation in the microwave.
Objectives:
1. To determine if the radiation in microwaves are harmful 2. To determine the effects of microwaved water on plant growth 3. To identify the factors that make the microwave harmful http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2010/05/18/microwave-hazards.aspx http://www.johnohab.com/publications/EnvironMentors%20Program%20Final%20Paper%20-%20Lalaram.pdf
Title: Zea Mays Peelings as Components in Paper Making
Problems: 1. What makes Zea Mays peelings feasible in making handmade paper? 2. What are alternative simple procedures in making handmade paper? 3. Is it feasible for Zea Mays peelings to be used as an alternative component in making handmade paper?
Hypotheses:
1. The thinness and dryness of the Zea Mays peelings make it possible to make handmade paper out of it 2. Alternative simple procedures in making handmade paper are submerging the peelings in wheat paste, heating, blending the peelings, and setting it on a couching sheet. 3. Zea Mays peelings are feasible as an alternative component in making handmade paper.
Objectives:
1. To prove the feasibility of Zea Mays peelings as handmade paper. 2. Identify what makes Zea Mays peelings feasible in making handmade paper. http://www.ehow.com/how_5819683_make-papyrus-paper-corn-husks.html. http://handicraft.indiamart.com/products/paper-products/how-to-make-handmade-paper.html.
