Can you determine the sex of a person by just looking at his/her feet?
There are numbers of differences between the male and female foot. For example, the male's foot has much more square shape that that of a female. The female foot is broader across the toes than a male's. Also, a female's foot has a narrower heel than a male's. Females are usually at higher risk for feet problems than males. This is because females wear high heels often. This puts all the wait

The purpose of this experiment was to determine if gender in seventh graders affects resting pulse rate.

Do burning wood stoves induce or contribute to respiratory illnesses?
I predict that wood stove users catch respiratory illnesses easier that gas heat or heat pump users. My curiosity in how respiratory illnesses are developed and what helps them get started inspired me to do this project. By doing this project, I hope to help respiratory illnesses sufferers resolve their chronic illnesses.

Do different types of sunblock have different protection strengths?
I wanted to know if SPF matters when you buy sun block. For example, does a CVS brand 30 sunblock work better than a CVS brand 15 sunblock? I also wanted to know if higher priced sunblock works better than lower priced sunblock of the same SPF? My hypothesis was that the higher the SPF the better it would protect and that higher priced sun block would work better than lower priced.

Do groups of people have different blood pressure readings?
Blood pressure varies relative to heart's pumping of blood. The heart should be thought of as a dual pump, with a right and left side. Systole represents the active pumping of blood from the ventricles into the circulation. The right side of the heart takes venous/returning blood from the body and sends it to the lungs to be oxygenated (pulmonary circulation). Measuring blood pressures on the righ

Do people from different backgrounds have different lung capacities?
Students in the primary and intermediate grades will: 1. Recognize that breathing is a necessary, automatic life process; 2. Observe and record data on respiration rate; 3. demonstrate how air enters and leaves the lungs; 4. Observe how respiratory rate changes with different activities; 5. Use counting as a means of gathering data.

Do you have a blind spot and if so, how can you determine your blind spot?
One of the most dramatic experiments to perform is the demonstration of the blind spot. The blind spot is the area on the retina without receptors that respond to light. Therefore an image that falls on this region will NOT be seen. It is in this region that the optic nerve exits the eye on its way to the brain. To find your blind spot, look at the image below or draw it on a piece of paper:

Does caffeine raise a person's blood pressure?
My hypothesis is that when caffeine is consumed in large amounts it will increase the blood pressure.

Does jet-lag affect the performance of professional athletes?
While reading National Geographic, an article was came upon that prompted research to understand more about jet lag effecting professional sports (baseball). East coast teams have better winning percentages than the West coast teams when traveling across three time zones. By learning more about jet lag and the effect it has on professional sports players (baseball), then and only then is the achie

Does the body become cooler more quickly with the help of a fan? If so, why?
The purpose of this experiment is to determine if fans really cool the body and its temperature. Fans help to circulate the air and sweep away moisture. The fan does not cool the body temperature, just the body(it regulates the body temperature).
