1-Naphthaleneacetic acid

Results Table 1 shows the results of our measurements for each of the three weeks. As seen in the table, the shortest plant measured for the control grew a total of 7.5 cm over the course of seven weeks. Meanwhile, the shortest plant measured for the SUPERthrive grew a total of 6.85 cm. The tallest plant measured for the control group grew 10.5 cm, while the tallest plant measured for the SUPERthrive group grew 8.5 cm. Figure 1 shows each of the heights for all three weeks. There is little change

1. Cell cultures and Cadmium treatment In this experiment, Arabidopsis thaliana is used. Its cell suspension is cultured weekly by tenfold dilution. It contains 100ml fresh growth medium, 4.3g/L Murashige and Skoog basal salt mixture which is the mixture of ferrous sulfate heptahydrate, naphthaleneacetic acid, and kinetin. The salt mixture is then adjusted to its optimum pH. Cell cultures are incubated at 23C where the light and dark intensity are controlled. For this experiment, 16 hours of light
