 * My science fair project is to test the conductivity of different fruits. **


 * Hypothesis: ** If connected to a battery and a volt meter, which is connected to a light bulb, then an apple, out of all the fruits being tested, shall be the best conductor of electricity.

 * Apples first originated 4000 years in the Middle East since the Roman occupation.
 * There are many special types of apples that originated from Europe to France.
 * Many of those apples arrived there from the time of the Norman Conquest in 1066 AD.
 * The demise of apple growing which started in the 13th century was reversed by Henry the VIII who instructed the kingdom to start making orchards.
 * As you can imagine, apples were a tasty and delicious treat at the time.
 * While Henry was scouring the world for the best tasting fruit, he realized that many of the good fruits were types of apples.
 * For the next 300 years apples were sold as luxury items in London.
 * Brogdal is now the UK National Fruit Collection which contains more than 3500 varieties of apples, the largest collection of apple varieties in the world.
