I’m a Scientist is like school science lessons meet the X Factor! School students choose which scientist gets a prize of $1000 to communicate their work.
Scientists and students talk on this website. They both break down barriers, have fun and learn. But only the students get to vote.
This zone is the Organs Zone. It has scientists studying health and disease in various parts of our bodies. Who gets the prize? YOU decide!
That’s a very tough question to answer. We know that the same things that make it hard to have a baby as a human are similar in mice. For example, being older or being over weight make it harder to have a baby. This is the same for mice.
Mice can have many babies at once though, and very quickly one after the other. For example, a mouse can have 15 babies, and then 21 days later, it can have another 15 babies, and so on and so on for about 2 years! That’s a lot of babies.
It takes humans nine months to make just one baby…
Also, mice can get pregnant every 5 days, and humans just once every 28 days….
So I guess the answer is probably mice… What do you think?.

Mice are technically more reproductive as they have shorter cycles!
So they can have more “tries” at getting pregnant…
