Question

“Plant growth is dependent on the amount of fertilizer applied.” That was the hypothesis Mel and Bill decided on for their science project. They planted identical seeds in the same potting mix, and they used identical pots for each plant. Each pot received the same amount of water, and all the pots were placed in the same location in the greenhouse. After three weeks, Mel and Bill were able to summarize their data. Based on the data collected, what would be the MOST appropriate research question for further study?

Answer 1

The most appropriate research question for further study would be regarding how the environmental conditions affect the growth. If the plans have the same type and amount of fertilizer and placed in different environments, the results will either prove or disprove their hypothesis.

Answer 2

D) What is the optimum amount of fertilizer for continued plant growth?
