Germination and Productivity

                                                        Lab # 5

                                     Germination and productivity

Question: 
Can plants germinate exposed to light?

Hypothesis: 
Seeds can germinate when are exposed to light

Treatments:
Light and Dark

Procedure:

  • 6 * 6 Trays
  • Added special soil until the top
  • Put water to each of the trays
  • Added four seeds of radishes for every tray spot
  • Kept them two weeks for seeing seeds germinate


1) What was our control for this experiment?
Germination and Productivity Experiment controlled with seed of radishes exposed to sunlight and dark. Conducted by seeds and dark soil for experimenting the survival and adaptation of Seeds exposed to sunlight.

2 ) What was the percent germination for the light treatment? For the dark treatment?

Light Treatment  

X= 55/144*100
X= 38.19%

Dark Treatment

50/144*100
X= 34.7%

  1. Hi Douglas,
    The answer to what is the Control Treatment is: Light treatment
    The Hypothesis was: Plants cannot germinate in the dark
    Some of your graphs are missing the labeling on the axis
    You missed the question about the comparison of the what you observed on the plants on light and dark treatment.
    Your grade is: 5.25/7.
