We know that fertilizer helps plants grow and that it is made of nitrogen. We also know that to much fertilizer will lead to the death of a plant |
Research Question |
How does the amount of fertilizer affect quantitative and qualitative traits in Brassica rapa |
Predictions |
We predict that the plant with more fertilizer will grow taller |
Experimental Design |
Three Treatments: Low Fertilizer Concentration
Normal Fertilizer Concentration (Control)
High Fertilizer Concentration
High Fertilizer – 4 Osmocote pellets per seed; 6 seeds = 24 pellets
Normal Fertilizer – 2 Osmocote pellets per seed; 6 seeds = 12 pellets
Low Fertilizer – 1 Osmocote pellets per seed; 6 seeds = 6 pellets |
