=Who has a faster reaction time boys or girls? Science experiment 2=
 * Background information**- I got my background information from [] It showed me more easier steps to do this experiment. I also wanted to know because this seems like a easy simple project. My eleven year old sister is also pretty fast for a girl so i would like to see if 14 year old boys and 14 year old girls have a similar or totally different reaction time. This website also showed a;lot of results from kids around the U.S. Most of my background information is from that website it shows all the materials i need for this and the procedures.Another useful website was one of the S.O.A.R winners from Washington who did this science [|project.http://www.selah.k12.wa.us/SOAR/SciProj2000/AshleyD.html]

It shows her whole science project not all of her information is useful. But she had different instructions from my other source. It shows her procedures hypotheisis and all that stuff.She also list her bibiography i checked one of those websites. I ended up finding this website [] http://encyclopedia.stateuniversity.com/pages/18310/reaction-time-RT.html it talks about the times between boys and girls.They did a survey across America and It says that females from all ages are better in timed situations the most difference is in preteens and teens. So that might be true in a reaction time but there not really the same thing. and according to this website the factors that determine reaction time are Tiredness you need sleep.


 * Hypothesis****-** My Hypothesis is that boys would have a faster reaction time than girls. I think that because boys are just faster runners more athletic and we play sports which we would have to react faster than girls. I also think that because girls cant catch that well.


 * Procedure-**I am going to get 10 boys and 10 girls and do reaction tests on them then ill just observe and check everybody's reaction times. The other reaction is a clicking game which i will test them on. It checks how many times you can click a orange square in thirty seconds.


 * Materials-** I will need a pencil, computer, graph, and 20 kids

[|Experiment test]
 * Experiment**- Myexperiment was to test 10 boys and ten girls with a website that testes their reaction time.

All the results and data are in this spreadsheet.
 * Data/Results-**

Conclusion-** The conclusion is that the Boys had better reaction times than the girls is which i origanally thought in my hypothesis.
