Based on the seed experiment in the Poop Lab, which seeds do you expect to sprout and grow?
-Dominant- [34]

Based on the seed experiment in the Poop Lab, the seeds that are expected to sprout are the seed in the elephant poop while the seeds in the soil are not expected to sprout.

<h3>What was the Poop Lab?</h3>

The main idea of the Poop Lab is to compare the growth of seeds that have gone through the digestive system of an animal, in this case, an elephant, to a seed that has not.

The seed that had gone through the digestive system was observed to have sprouted but the seeds in the soil did not. This experiment demonstrates the role animals such as elephants play in shaping the ecosystem through seed dispersal.

The seed that passed through the digestive system of the element and then passed out into the poop received enough nutrients for growth.

However, the seed in the soil does not receive adequate nutrients.
