A2 Edexcel Biology coursework

I have been putting this off all summer and finally have to face it, working out what i'm doing for my coursework :frown:
This year we have to basically pick a biological investigation & carry it out, but it has to have some sort of significance (e.g. we did a practice one where we investigated a maggots response to light as they are used for medical purposes cleaning wounds so light could potentially make them do it faster ect.) & I have no idea what to do, i'm looking for a really simple Idea & any suggestions please!!
Hi there,

While you're waiting for an answer, did you know we have 300,000 study resources that could answer your question in TSR's Learn together section?

We have everything from Teacher Marked Essays to Mindmaps and Quizzes to help you with your work. Take a look around.

If you're stuck on how to get started, try creating some resources. It's free to do and can help breakdown tough topics into manageable chunks. Get creating now.

Thanks!

Not sure what all of this is about? Head here to find out more.
The easiest ones to look out would be observational studies, so ones where you don't have to physically manipulate the IV but you observe it in a real life scenario and objectively record the DV. Mine was kind of similar where I measured increasing distance from an ants nest and recorded leaf damage. But don't forget you'd have to take into account abiotic/extraneous variables.
