College students have conducted an experiment to determine the deficiency symptoms of tomato plants that is placed in a hydroponic solution. Each bottle out of the six bottles except for the positive control has lacked a certain micronutrient. In the positive control, all the nutrients were provided. However, the control setup showed symptoms of micronutrient deficiency unexpectedly. College students later found out that the room has a very high relative humidity and the transpiration was affected. Theoretically, how will the thermoregulation of tomato plants be affected of transpiration will not occur?

A farmer has noticed that his soybean plants produce more beans in some years than others. He claims to always apply the same amount of fertilizer to the plants but he suspects the difference in crop yield may have something to do with the amount of water the crops receive. The farmer has observed that the soybeans on his farm usually receive between 0 to 0.5 inches of water per day, but he is unsure of the optimal amount of water with which to irrigate. Question: state a research question that will directly address the farmer’s problem.
