The Type Of Soil Affects Bean Seed Germination And Growth

all treatments contain the same type of soil, are planted in the same size of pan, are exposed to the same amount of sunlight, and are maintained at the same temperature throughout the course of the experiment. ON THE TEST there will be a number of related questions about this section not just the question shown below.

Four cups of equal size were filled with one cup of garden soil. Lima beans were planted at an equal depth (one inch as instructed on the bag). Every day, for 33 days, each plant received one half tablespoon of the specified liquid. Beans one and two got one half tablespoon of water each,

The experiment was begun by obtaining four 8 oz. Styrofoam cups and punching a hole through the bottom of them. This hole was for water entry or excess water drainage. Moistened soil was packed to the 1/2 full line in the cup along with 3 fertilizer pellets The cups were labeled the following: Rosette-H20, Rosette-GA, Wild-Type-H2O, and Wild-type- GA.(Handout 1) A small wooden applicator stick was obtained a moistened at the tip with water from the petri dish labeled ‘water.’ This was to be able to attract the seed to the applicator in order to place the seed from its original container into

The purpose of this experiment is to observe the effects of Sodium Chloride (NaCl) on the germination rate of Wisconsin Fast Plants.

Planting depth of crops can vary. The depth at which seeds are placed can be changed if the conditions are morphed to fit the plant’s needs. A crop such as soybeans can be planted at varied depths. It can be planted at 1 to 1.5 inches if the soil has a fine texture, it is planted early in the season, and lots of water is available. This plant can be placed at about 2 inches if the soil is coarse and it is planted late in the season. If soybeans are planted at this depth, they do not need a great amount of moisture. (Staton).

The first lab was conducted to analyze how germination affects the rate of cellular respiration in lima beans compared to dormant seeds. In order to

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.

protected it; the seed grew to be a beautiful plant. The other seed also had a gardener who

Procedure: Variables: Controlled- water and size of potatoes. Manipulated variables- potatoes growth based on contents of solution.

First, before starting my experiment I did some research on the growth of lima beans, so that I could start the base of the project. According to research done at the University of

The purpose of this lab was to investigate and observe the effects of organic vs. synthetic fertilizers on plant growth by planting lima beans with added amounts of fertilizers, and to see how does adding different nutrients to the soil affect the growth of the lima bean? A significant difference was examined between the plants that contained manure and miracle growth, unfortunately the plant with no additional fertilizers (Plant #3) did not show any growth. The plant that grew the most was the one that contained manure, to an extent the one that grew the most in a short period of time was the one that contained miracle growth, as shown in figure I. The hypothesis explaining if the Lima Bean plant contains synthetic nutrients in the soil then

51) A botanist wanted to see if a new strain of corn could germinate in soil that was too salty for regular corn. She conducted a study on the germination success of seeds from the new strain that were exposed to various levels of salty soil, from zero to normal (100mg/L) to high (200 mg/L) to very high (400 mg/L) to normally lethal (800 mg/L)

Have you ever wondered if music really affects the growth rate of plats, or if it even has anything to do with growth rate? In this experiment, we will grow two separate plants, one with classical music, and another with no music at all. The soil used will be the same in order for the outcome to be unbiased. The bean seed will be grown over a period of 6 weeks. Bean seeds are an easy plant to grow, and only require sunlight, warmth, soil and water. That is why we chose to grow it. The characteristics of the bean plant made it an easy pick for us. Bean seeds have similar growth patterns to other plants, such as corn. In fact, they are so easy to find and grow, that even a simple bean found in the grocery store can be fully

All types of corn must be grown in the same soil and nutrient conditions, watering amounts and light conditions. They must be grown in separated plant chambers, and the seeds will be planted in three pots and each grow chamber will be labeled. The amount of ECB that is added to the plantation must always be in the same quantity corresponding to

Purpose: To see the effect of an acid introduced during seed germination, on the length of the plant roots. Also shows how salt can affect the seed germination. Acid can be introduced to seeds during germination if there is acid rain. Knowing the results of acid rain on seed germination will help us understand how to grow pants better, and how to have more successful germination. Salt can be introduced into a seed during germination because salt is put on roads and the salt builds up and can contaminate the soil. Knowing the effects of salt on seed germination will allow us to know for sure if the salt is affecting the plants growth or not.
