A scientist is studying the effect a new fertilizer has on the root growth of bean seedlings. Three groups of plants are grown in the same location in a greenhouse, each receiving the same amount of sunlight and water every day. The scientist measures the length of the roots for each plant every day. The scientist then calculates the mean for each group for five days. The results are shown in the following table. Fertilizer Experiment Data Table A What is the independent variable in this experiment? B с Day 1 Day 2 Day 3 Day 4 Day 5 D Group 1 0 mg 3.0 cm 3.2 cm 3.4 cm 3.7 cm 4.2 cm the amount of water given to each plant the amount of fertilizer given to each plant Group 2 5 mg 2.7 cm 3.1 cm 3.7 cm 4.2 cm 4.6 cm the place in the greenhouse where each plant was placed the type of soil used for each plant Group 3 10 mg 2.9 cm 3.3 cm 3.7 cm 3.9 cm 4.1 cm

Tobacco plants invest a lot of resources into the production of secondary compounds know as alkaloids (e.g., nicotine) that we believe act as defenses against herbivores. The researchers did an experiment where they added a hormone that reduces the production of alkaloids. In graph (a), the data show that the hormone reduced the proportion of alkaloids as a function of leaf mass relative to controls- so the hormone worked. They also measured the lifetime seed production of the plants in both treatments without any herbivores present (b). They had the following results. What might you conclude/hypothesize/investigate based on the data in graph (b) (a) Chemical defenses (percent of leaf mass) 1.8% 1.4 1.0 0.6 0.2 No hormone added Hormone added (b) Lifetime seed mass (g/plant) -18 14 10 No hormone added Hormone added It would be good to test whether the hormone is very specific or whether it might also cause changes in other metabolic processes The hormone has no effect on the lifetime…
