Acid Rain Affects The Rate At Which Seed Germinate

Beforehand, I believed that, if fertilizer speeds the growth of plants, then the 9 pellets of fertilizer were going to make the biggest plant the fastest. I thought this because it would have the most fertilizer and if fertilizer speeds up the growth of plants then 9 must speed it up the most. However, I was not completely right with my initial prediction. My personal data came to the conclusion that the 3 pellets made the plant grow the fastest but in the class data by the end the average data showed that 9 pellets showed the most growth. This experiment was set up as four different plant seeds in four different quadrants. Each of the four quadrants had a different amount of fertilizer. We watered them and planted them in soil then every week we checked in on our plants. We measured the size if the plants and then recorded it and put them back under the fluorescent light. Then everyone recorded their data and we watched the class data on average, then the last day we measured the mass of the plants and found the class data. So although my prediction of 9 pellets of fertilizer creating the most growth was true in the class data, it was not true in my individual

All five groups recorded the outcomes that they established. For our bench, we found that nine raddish seeds in the control dish, zero raddish seeds in the eucalyptus dish, and four radish seeds in the lemon dish germinated and sprouted. Our bench also found that the average seed length for the control was thirty one millimeters, for the Eucalyptus was zero. and for the Lemon was eight and a half. Below, is a chart and graph that shows the whole data as averages from all five benches. Each bench did the exact same experiment so we knew nothing would be biased.

The hypothesis behind this experiment is that the Gibberellic acid has a positive growth effect on the plant and causes it grow larger in height.

The materials needed for the experiment include radish seeds, sand, a scale, paper towels, a graduated cylinder, a ruler, and plastic Ziploc bags. For the 4 experiments, 20 of the radish seeds were counted per experiment, for a total of 80 seeds. Then, the mass of each group of 20 seeds was measured. Then, the 3 experimental groups were shaken in a bag of sand. Sample A was shaken 5 times, Sample B was shaken 20 times and Sample C was shaken 40 times. For the Control group, the seeds were not shaken in a bag of sand.

For my seed experiment I had decided to see what the effect of sprinkling salt on a radish seed would be. So for my control group I had set six (6) cherry radish seeds in between a damp paper towel and then closed it within a Ziploc bag. For my experimental I had set it up the exact same way as the control group but I would sprinkle salt on top of seeds before I zipped up the baggie. I sprinkled the salt on the experimental seeds and dampened the paper towel once every day. Each bag was stored in the light and at room temperature (~70° F.)

The effects of 1ml. Of acid rain on Wisconsin fast plants. How 1ml. Of acid rain will affect the growth of the plants. If the acid rain will make the plants grow shorter or taller, or if they will grow more or less flowers. Also if the acid rain will affect the weight of our plant and how many seeds it will produce.

There are many ways to obtain seeds to grow flowers in the springtime, but not all seeds were created equal. Sunflower seeds, for example, can be bought at a garden store in a packet for $1.5 dollars per 6 gram packet, but they can also be found in bird seed for $3.53 dollars per 10 pounds. This experiment intends to find if the germination of a store bought packet of sunflower seeds matches the germination rate of sunflower seeds obtained from a bag of bird seed. While both seeds will germinate, it is believed that the bird seed will not be as robust in growth as the garden seed, due to the fact that the garden seed is made to be grown, while the bird seed is made for consumption.

The results observed do not correspond with the outcome predicted by the hypothesis. Despite the nature of the subjects of the experiments, no substantial growth was observed. Only one seed of the 36 planted germinated, and it could only survive for a period of a week. The one seed that germinated reach a height of 1.2 cm. Table 1 presents the average growth observed in each quad. Each quad had a total of 12 seeds. No seeds were removed during the course of the experiment.

Null Hypothesis – A plant on a window sill does not grow faster than a plant on a living room coffee table

Therefore, I was correct in my hypothesis that dark will have an effect on the germination of radish seeds. Also, I was very close in predicting that the seeds grown in the light will germinate twice as much as the seeds grown in the dark; the control seeds grew a little less than double the size of the experimental seeds. Ultimately, my experiment proved that light is a very important factor in the growth of any plant. However, I’ve learned that seeds grown in the dark will germinate, though slowly, as

METHODS/PROCEDURES: In the beginning of the experiment, pea seeds were used in order to perform the experiment. It was extremely important to acquire good, dry, and viable seeds so the process of germination could occur. A handful of these healthy seeds worked best in assisting the experiment. The seeds ability to germinate was a vital information needed to determine the outcome of the experiment.

The writer speculates on possible explanations for unexpected results. The seed could not have sprouted possibly because the seed was faulty and was never

The graph illustrates an experiment of different radiation doses of radish seeds. The blue line represents the results collected by the entire class. The orange line represents individual results. Eight seeds were selected from each radiation doses. The seeds were placed in five different petri dishes and grown under light for two

This lab was a success, because it shows what happens with acid rain, and its effect on seed germination. The seeds will actually grow

In the experiment, ten pots of soil from a woodsy area and ten from an area undergoing construction have had marigold seeds planted in them. Over the weeks that follow, every seven days each of the sprouting plants will be measured and have its height recorded (in centimeters). At the end of the experiment, the data will be compared between the growth of the plants in the poor soil, and the growth of the other plants. Hypothetically, if plants are grown in soil from an area being
