Answer;

-Gemstones

Gemstones are nonmetallic minerals that are valued for their beauty and rarity rather than their usefulness.

Explanation;

-Most gemstones form in the Earth's crust; the top layer of the Earth, with a depth of 3 to 25 miles. Only two gemstone varieties, diamond and peridot, form in the Earth's mantle, which represents 80% of the Earth's volume.

-A few gemstones form in the mantle, but all gems are mined in the crust. A precious gemstone has beauty, durability, and rarity, whereas a semiprecious gemstone has only one or two of these qualities.

The independent variable is the variable that is changed by the experimenter, which is the TYPE OF FERTILIZER in this case, while the dependent variable is the measured variable, which is the GROWTH OF MARIGOLDS in this experiment.

However, a control group is a group that does not receive any experimental treatment. In other words, the independent variable is unchanged in the control group. The control group is regarded as the "normal" used to compare with the experimental group (group that receives treatment). In this experiment, the group of marigolds that DOES NOT RECEIVE FERTILIZER is the control group.
