In the context of a science project, “application” refers to the real-world use or practical implications of the experiment, theory, or findings. It answers the question: “How can this science be applied or used in everyday life?”
For example:
- If your project is about renewable energy, the application section would explain how the results of your experiment could be used to improve energy sources or reduce pollution.
- If you’re studying plant growth, you might discuss how your findings could be applied to agriculture or gardening to improve crop yields.
In short, the application part of a science project helps connect your experiment or research to practical, real-life scenarios.
