100 Fingerprints
Gracie Horne Papastesis & Scarlett Harkness
For our experiment, me and Gracie collected 50 different fingerprints from 50 different people. The title is 100, but due to time we could only do 50 (we plan on doing more). On our board, we displayed the fingerprints without giving names for privacy. We also displayed facts about fingerprints, and the procedure and materials for our experiment. The purpose for our experiment was to see what the most popular one out of all of them (it concluded with loop being the most popular fingerprint out of them). But we also wanted to teach people about something you wouldn't expect to see or often wonder about.

Our project explains how airplanes fly including a summary of the four forces of flight. We are including Bernoulli's Principle and a detailed explanation about the cross-section of an airplane wing as well as how they land and steer using rudders. Me and my partner included a demonstration with slips of paper showing high and low pressure. We descided on this project because Gabby and I were interseted in finding out how aircrafts fly, and having a deeper understanding of how they work.

My project is all about animal track. If you can tell if an animal is big or small based on the depth and width of the track. This information could be used at a scene to determine the size of an animal. Different animals produce different tracks. Distinguishing features on different types of tracks.

I choose fossils because I like fossil. I will talk about my tour at the dinosaur museum in Wembley and how we clean fossils. I also talk about what is a fossil, and how to find it.
Coralie Virasack & Nevaeh White
We did it on how do turtles help the enviroment because i have a turtle and it seemed really cool on how they help the enviroment when we searched it up. Where they live and what they eat, and the animals that are dangerous for them.
Remington Barclay & Lexx Halcrow
we launched 3 airplane and measured the distance each one shot. we took out the judges and shown them how to launch it. we told them our hipotosiths. and we both designed 3 launchers

Nous utilisons l’effet placebo à notre avantage. Nous colorons trois verres de Sprite et nous les donnons à un volontaire. Ils boivent les trois différents verres de Sprite et nous disent lequel ils préfèrent. S’ils nous disent qu’ils en préfèrent une, ce n’est pas vrai car nous n’avons rien mis dans le Sprite pour changer la saveur. Cette expérience fait croire à votre cerveau que tous les verres ont un goût différent en raison de la couleurNous avons choisi de faire une expérience basée sur l’effet placebo, car nous étions curieuses de savoir ce que les élèves penseraient. Nous avons trouvé que ce serait une expérience intéressante et créative à faire. Nous avons trouvé notre idée sur internet.

Nous avons remarqué que dans nos environs, la plupart des champs sont de blé et de canola, mais que parfois il y a un champ de pois ici et là. Nous nous sommes demandé pourquoi les fermiers cultivent les pois et nous avons créé un projet pour répondre à notre question.
Sylvia Seward
In my project I researched prosthetics and I created a robotic hand. The reason for doing this was because I wanted to learn about the history of prosthetics, and I wanted to see if it was worth the time to make a robotic hand.

To experiment with hydrogen to see what would work for a cool fuel source. we are doing a type of project to so what hydrogen can do under certian test. we thought of hydrongen it is a fuel that is not often thought about. we also thought that hydrogen could be used as another source of possible combution engines. we also havnt really been talking about oxygen and it is found in our enviorment .

There are two main purposes of our research: To determine the specific lethality or “acute toxicity,” of L'Oréal and Dr. Bronner shampoos on daphnia magna (bioindicators commonly referred to as water fleas) and to compare each product against one another as natural versus synthetic.
The independent variable in this experiment is the concentration of shampoo we are exposing the daphnids to. The dependent variable is the survival rate of the daphnid because they are affected by the concentration of shampoo.
For the procedure, the following controls were maintained throughout daphnia culturing, the 24-hour range testing, and the 48-hour logarithmic testing: temperature; lighting; photoperiod; pH; and water hardness. For each experiment, ten daphnids were transferred into 150 mL of test solutions of varying concentrations of shampoo. The concentrations of shampoo were determined through incremental reductions of 50% and 25%. 24 and/or 48 hours later, the solutions were observed to measure the survival rate of the daphnids. Range-finding tests were initially completed to locate the spectrum for final logarithmic testing, which was conducted to determine an EC50 (when the concentration effectively harms 50% of the daphnids in the experiment) for each shampoo. Over 40 of these experiments, with replicates of the final logarithmic testing, were completed.

I did my science project on IgA Nephropathy. I researched the treatments, diagnosis, symptoms, what types food to eat and not to eat. The purpose of this project was to reasearch IgA Nephropathy to know it inside and out. I have this disease and we wanted to figure it out. This has been the summary of my project and thanks for letting me join you for the regional fair.

I chose this project because i was wondering if you could make an egg float. So i did a few experiment to see if it was possible, and then i learn that they was an ocean with so much salt in it that your body could actually float in it. I tought it was cool.
Caitlin Trofimenkoff & Marcia Teichroeb
The purpose of our experiment is to show people that they are not being as healthy as they think they are.we hope that we can show people that there is more to micro plastics than they think.we want to decrease the population of micro plastics.

The purpose of are expirament was to see if the dogs mouth was cleaner than the humains mouth. We have done expiraments to see if the dogs mouth was cleaner than the humains mouth. We we grabbing bactirares from the mouths with a swab and putting it on petrie jars filled with agar. Are variables were to make sure that is was fair for both humains and dogs. our variables controled were 3 dogs and 3 humans, we made shure that both dogs and humans were around the same age.

My purpose for presenting this subject is to teach why you may sink/float in salt or freshwater. I will be demonstrating this with raw eggs. During the summer time our family would go to oceans around the world, I would notice how differently I would float in fresh water, then the salty oceans. Which leads to the curiosity of why this may happen. I have faces on the eggs to hopefully make this project funner, or keep the attention on my project.

For my science fair project I wanted to see if I could use a poor quality field pea seed with its outer seed coat damaged to be the same as or better than a whole undamaged pea seed in the field. I thought of this idea because I am interested in agriculture as well as this my mother works in a lab that I fortunately got to do my science fair project in during my summer holiday. After thinking of how I would do this I came to the conclusion that I would put different Trt's in germination boxes. Trt stands for treatment and I had 4, Trt#1 was an untreated whole seed, Trt#2 was an untreated cracked seed, Trt#3 was a treated whole seed, and Trt#4 was a treated cracked pea seed. To differentiate the cracked seeds and the whole seeds I had to look at each individual seed under a microscope and see if the outer seed coat was broken. For the germination boxes I started off sterilizing everything in the incubator or in in their specific chemicals, then I dipped the blotter paper in the distilled, and put the 50 peas in each box (which I had 4 boxes per Trt). I let them germinate in the incubator but on the 6th day I realized that me doing germination boxes would not be accurate to what I was trying to show as a germination box is sterile and a field is not sterile. Even though I knew this I continued my germination boxes until day 8 when I came up with the conclusion that Trt#3 (treated whole) grew the best of the 4 Trt's.I then thought of a way to better represent field conditions by doing soil screens. In the soil screens I did 4 reps (repetitions) in each pot with the Trts. Rep 1 was uninoculated with regular potting soil, Rep 2 had .75g Rhizoctonia in it, Rep 3 had .75g of Fusarium, and Rep 4 had .75g of Rhizoctonia and Fusarium. I gave them all the same amount of water as well as this they all got the same temperature and sunlight outside. I recorded my data last on day 14 and came up with the conclusion that Trt#4 (treated cracked) grew the best of all the treatment in every Rep and it stayed like this throughout the summer as I monitored them.

I used four different filters/purifiers to filter our local lake water to find out which one works the best. The five different variable were that I used four different filters/purifiers and then tested some unfiltered water. After purifying all the water I used a water testing kit from the Safe Drinking Water Foundation and tested the water for ammonia, arsenic, copper, iron, manganese, nitrate, pH, chlorine, hardness and the TDS. The four filters/purifiers were a Grayl, Katadyn, Steripen and a Two step water treatment. The purpose of this experiment was to find out which one of these filters/purifiers words the best because I wanted to know that me and my friends and family as using safe and reliable filters when we are out hiking.

My project is a research project on how cancer is related to genetics. The purpose of my project is to help people learn a little bit more about cancer and how genetics play a role in it. For my project I had to do a lot of research and gather lots of information about my topic. I learned about different genetic variants that make individuals more susceptible to developing cancer, different cancers that can be developed due to these genetic changes. I have also learned about genetic tests that can help determine if a person has inherited these genetic changes, and about three different gene therapy treatment options.

I chose to do this project because i believe that type one diabetes is something that is not often talked about although it is something that many people have to deal with and suffer from in their every day life. I want to make more people aware of what it is and how it can affect ones life. I want this to happen so that those who have this disease can feel more secure in who they are and not have to deal with innapropriate comments and so that people know how to help and when it is that they should help.
