Help with coming up a lab question? Any ideas are welcomed.

I need help for thinking up a simple research question. It's for a biology lab and we are supposed to use statistics. It doesn't really have to be too biological.

But of course it has to be something measurable. For example: Do taller people jump taller (this would be too hard to measure because I can't measure people in the air)? Something like this.

Gosh there are hundred of things, I'm sure you could think of many if you tried.

Couple of examples off the top of my head:
*How does temperature/moisture/light intensity effect motility of Drosophila melanogaster larvae?
*How does transpiration rate correlate to stomatal density?
*Difference in population density of Oniscus asellus between woodland and scrub environments?

They're all ones that I've done. Relatively easy to carry out, will generally give you good sets of data and you can perform nice stats afterwards.
