Research Question |
How does the temperature of the environment (air) affect seed germination? |
Predictions |
We think that the plants in the incubator will grow faster and the plants in the cold environment will slow down. |
Experimental Design |
1. Observe seeds before soaking (take a picture\sketch)
2. Soak seeds overnight in 2-3 cm of water. Then repeat step one.
3. Place seeds (three per petri dish) with damp towel (control, Incubator, fridge)
4. Take observations and record height + color.
5. Moisten paper towel 2-3 times a week |
