- Microbiology:
- Microbiology is the study of microorganisms, which are unicellular or cell-cluster microscopic organisms.
Your project may be a good fit for this category if it:
- Deals with fungi, bacteria, algaes or viruses, at the microscopic level.
**Please note that no microbiological samples may be brought to the Fair. You may show pictures of the microbiological samples that you grew. Please take care to work safely and destroy microbiological samples correctly.
- Physiology:
- Physiology is the study of the mechanical, physical, and biochemical functions of living organisms.
