Plants being affected by magnetic forces. - To check whether magnetic force will affect plant's growth. (Apr/16/2008 )
I am a Singapore sec 3 Biology student and i am joing a competition on life science.
I thought of an experiment using magnet and plant to see whether the magnetic force will affect the growth of the plant.
I have 4 more months before i must submit the project, can i seek help from anyone that can tell me wad can i consider in doing this project.
I consulted help in my school and they said that it would be good if there i a professor to help us in the project as it is related to Physic and Biology.
I hope i can seek help on this forum together with the help i get from my school to make this project a success.
try to google it first. many experiments have been done in this direction.
i'd recommend you to read "the secret life of plants" by Peter Tompkins and Christopher Bird.
Thank You for your suggestion as i do even know there is such a book at first so after your comment i know i can also get reference from the book. Thank You very much.
Is it possible that someone tells me the way to conduct the experiment and how do i compare the result in the end?
look for related literature. as genehunter suggested, google it first. if you want more references look up at http://highwire.stanford.edu or http://www.scopus.com
good luck on your project.
