Factors Affecting The Best For Watering Plants With Water

Good Essays

In my science experiment, I am trying to see which liquid works the best for watering plants with Water, Milk, Pepsi, Kool Aid, Vinegar, and Propel(Sports Drink).

HYPOTHESIS:
If the plants with water, milk, pepsi, vinegar, propel, and kool aid are watered every other day and given the equal amount of sunlight, the growing plant with water will grow the tallest, because anybody with at least a fourth grade education know that plants are mostly watered with water. Water should be the best liquid solution.

VARIABLES:
The independent variable in my experiment is watering my bean plants with different type of liquids. The dependent variable in my experiment is the plants height measured using a centimeter ruler. The control variables in my …show more content…

• Water helps the plant stand tall by delivering nutrients to it. This is why a plant drops over when it’s dying of thirst. A liquid with the right amount of nutrients will help the plant grow.
• Water can split up into the two things it’s made up of hydrogen and oxygen.
• Other liquids are not nessecerally made up of hydrogen and oxygen, so the effect on plant growth will change.
• Cellular respiration is something a plant uses as help for growing. It is glucose combines with oxygen, making carbon dioxcide and water, which releases energy: the energy helps the plant grow.

MATERIALS:
To preform my experiment, I will need…
• Plastic Bowls (6)
• Green Bean Seeds (24)
• Supply of Water
• Supply of Milk
• Supply of Kool Aid
• Supply of Vinegar
• Supply f Pepsi
• Supply of Propel
• 1/3 cup measuring cup
• Labels
• Paper and pen (to record data)
• Centimeter ruler

PROCEDURE:
The steps for my project are…
1. Plant the beans, take the bean seed and plant as directed on the package.
2. Label, stick the labels onto the cups and label Milk, Water, Vinegar, Kool Aid, Sports Drink, an Pepsi.
3. Water, water plant A with ¼ cup of water. Water plant B with ¼ cup of milk. Water plant C with ¼ cup of vinegar. Water plant D with ¼ cup of Propel(Sports Drink). Water plant E with ¼ cup of Pepsi. Water plant F with ¼ cup of Kool Aid.
4. Repeat. Follow directions of step three once each other day until the
