Advanced Higher project ideas?

Hi I really need help, what are people doing for their projects and do people have any ideas for easier ones? Cause I understand that there are harder ones than others.
I'm doing advanced Biology and chemistry
Or are there any good ones that overlap with the 2 subjects?

one that overlaps them both is vitamin C concentration in fruits but you can only do it for either bio or chem, another overlap would be any colorimetric analysis
a nice easy one that I know a lot of people enjoyed was a project on paracetamol for chem
most chem projects end up being back titrations

from my personal experience , last year in S6 I took AH chem, AH physics, H bio and H psychology. My AH chem project was colorimetric analysis of iron concentration in iron tablets (some people even did iron concentration in irn bru, there was a few experiments involving alcohol such as whisky or wine ....)
even though I did H bio ,rather than AH bio there is probably an AH version of it, my H bio assignment was on enzymes

just realized that enzymes/catalysts is a AH bio and AH chem topic so that's another one that links the two :wink:

You're so helpful thank you! :smile:

The alcohol experiments seem fun haha

For advanced higher Chemistry I did a back titration looking at the calcium carbonate content of seashells, most of my classmates did stuff to do with iron tablets though
