What is a report/project I could do combining biology and physics?

Katherine asked:


I have to do a project for my biology class, on a specific topic.

Does anybody have any ideas on a topic that encompasses both biology and physics, that could make a good project?

* By project I mean research a topic and collect information about it, put it on a presentation board.

Here’s a good one. “Optical tweezers.”

Some of this article is fairly technical in nature, so I don’t expect you to fully understand all of what’s in it, but there should be some good links at the bottom of the page.

Basically what happens here is you use a laser to trap transparent particles in the beam. Often the particles are biological in nature, for example cells. The cells can then be manipulated and probed whilst remaining still, but can also be kept alive as you’re not removing them.
