- EXPERIMENT : INITIATION OF CALLUS AND CELL SUSPENSION IN SELECTED PLANTS OBJECTIVES : To prepare plant materials as a source of explants. To initiate callus in solid media and cell suspension from selected plant materials. QUESTIONPlease give a general introduction about this experiment.arrow_forwardExplanationarrow_forwardName Date Period Using Scientific Method The following describes an experiment to determine the effect of additional nitrogen on plant growth. Read the paragraph carefully, then answer the questions. Dr. Anderson set up an experiment in which she planted bean seeds in two groups, A and B. After the sceds germinated, Group A was fed a balanced application of fertilizer with additional nitrogen, as recommended by most plant growers. Group B was grown under identical conditions, except the fertilizer they received contained no additional nitrogen. Dr. Anderson observed the plants for one month. You can see the results in Figure 1. Group A Group B Figure 1 1) What was the hypothesis for this experiment? (Use IF... THEN .. statement) 2) Which plants represent the control group?
