How can I do research in high school ?

Hi I’m a junior in high school and I don’t have any good extracurricular activities or leadership positions and I’m terrified that I won’t get into college. My grades are good but extracurricular I have nothing. So I heard that doing research is really good to show colleges and I searched and searched on how to do/start it but I’m still confused and lost.
