I enjoy playing house soccer. Some of my favourite TV shows are HOUSE MD and Magnum PI. My favourite bands are AC/DC, the Rolling Stones, the Beatles and Cheap Trick. I enjoy playing the piano and alto saxophone in jazz band. I am excited about going to Nova Scotia and hope I will have the opportunity to visit Springhill, the place where my grandmother grew up. |
| Nicholas Kasimir Randall The Tap, the Boiled and the Microwaved
Division: | Sciences physiques et des mathématiques / Aucun | Catégorie: | Intermédiaire | Région: | Central Okanagan | Ville: | Summerland, BC | École: | Penticton Secondary | Sommaire: | My project investigated microwaves using plants as an indicator system. I studied seed germination and growth of three plants. I watered different groups with either tap, boiled or microwaved water. After two months in the greenhouse, I measured height, chlorophyll content, fresh and dry weight. My findings were beans and wheat grew significantly better with microwaved water. There was no significant difference for peas. |
