Biology Extended Essay - Would already existing research affect my score?

Hi all, I've chosen to investigate Chlorella in my extended essay and its growth factors. I noticed that my topic already had many prior research papers on it. It seems that it would make my research somewhat less original. Would I penalized for something like that? Its already too late to start finding a new RQ because my school need the first reflection to be locked in soon.

It's OK, I say go ahead with it.

However, maybe you could add something spicy into your RQ, like growth of Chlorella in (some unusual condition) which has been researched less before?

Maybe growth of chlorella without certain growth factors? Anything with the same topic but a little twitched, think about it, it could help you
