I'm doing a science project and its pretty common. I'm doing Acid Rain and its effects on plant growth. Now, originally I wanted to just use something simple... like carrot seeds but my mom said she wouldn't be able to find them because they're out of season, so I picked basil seeds. Anyway, I turned in my topic approval sheet and my teacher returned it with a few questions.
He wanted to know:
Why basil seeds?
I told him,"Because they grow fast enough for me to do the experiment in the amount of time given and because a lot of other seeds were out of season"
but he told me that I might want to have more of a scientific reason, or to pick new seeds, still with a good reason why.

and

How will I make this project more interesting and different then ones done in the past?

I wasn't sure on this one.... So far what im doing pretty much is having 8 test groups with different amounts of acid rain used in them and I will be recording what i notice in a nb.

Suggestions?

Has anyone ever used Rockwool to root cuttings. I am fairly new at this, but at my first attempt have had MUCH better results. What I need to know is, what about when the roots get tangled in the wool? Is there a way to make the removal process more gentle on the roots? Any advice about Rockwool in general would be greatly appreciated as this will probably be my only choice to rooting cuttings in the future.

If you have species A and B that has a death rate 0.01, or [99% cells survive from each hour to the next], what would happen if this death rate increased?

and does anyone know a good website on this stuff?

I wanted to plant some seeds for a science experiment in my classroom, but there are no seeds to be found in the stores... Can I use beans (lima, pinto, etc) to plant? I'm doing the experiment where you plant a seed in a ziplock bag, and observe the changes as the seeds tranforms into a plant....
Please help!

1. In the spring of the year maple trees are tapped for sap to make sugar. True/False and why?
a.)True, maple trees are tapped in the spring because the sap begins to flow and the starch that was stored in the roots all winter changes back into sugar
b.)False, maple trees are not tapped in the spring because after the winter there is not enough sap to bother extracting. It must build up through the spring and summer.
c.)False, maple trees are tapped in the fall to ensure that the tree has enough energy stored to make it through the winter.

2. Potato beetles do not eat the tubers of the plant which man uses; they feed only on the leaves. Why take the trouble to poison the beetles then?
a.)Because beetle dung causes the potatoes to have a bitter flavor
b.)Because if the leaves are destroyed no photosynthesis takes place and the plant has no extra food to be stored as a potato
c.)Because the beetles burrow into the potatoes to lay their eggs
