Answer:
Hypothesis: IF the temperature is high, THEN the germination rate of radish seeds will increase.
Experimental Group: 20 Seeds in petri-dishes placed in the freezer and incubator each
Control Group: 20 seeds stored at room temperature
Manipulated Variable (IV): TEMPERATURE
Responding Variable (DV): GERMINATION RATE
Constants: Amount of water, same amount of time (2 weeks)
Explanation:
- The hypothesis is a testable explanation given to an observed problem. A possible hypothesis is IF the temperature is high, THEN the germination rate of radish seeds will increase.
- Independent or manipulated variable is the variable that is changed or manipulated variable in an experiment. The TEMPERATURE is the independent variable in this case.
- Dependent or responding variable is the variable that is measured in an experiment. In this case, the dependent variable is the GERMINATION RATE
- The experimental group is the group that receives the experimental treatment. In this case, the experimental group is the 20 Seeds in petri-dishes placed in the freezer and incubator each.
- The control group is the group that does not receive the experimental group. In this case, the control group is the 20 seeds stored or placed at room temperature.
- Constants are the variables that are kept unchanged throughout the experiment. In this case, the constants are Amount of water, same amount of time (2 weeks)
