I. Introduction:
Water is an essential component for plant life, which plays a crucial role in
various physiological processes such as photosynthesis, nutrient transport,
temperature regulation. However, the quality and source of water can significantly
impact the plant growth and development. Different water sources, such as tap
water, and coke, contain varying levels of minerals, salt, and other dissolved
substances. These variations can influence plant growth in both positive and
negative ways.
II. Abstract:
This investigatory project aims to explore the effects of various liquid forms on
the growth and development of plants. The study will investigate the influence of
differ water sources, including tap water, and coke on plant growth parameters such
as height, leaf area, and biomass.
IV. Hypothesis:
It’s I hypothesized that the plants that were watered with after will exhibit the
most signs of growth compared to the other plants that were watered with coke. This
hypothesis is based on the assumption that the tap water contains a balanced mix of
essential minerals and nutrients that promote healthy plant growth.
V. Experimental Design:
Independent variable:
The type of liquid solution used like ( tap water, and coke ).
Dependent variable:
Are plant growth parameters, including height, leaf area, and biomass.
Constant:
Control:
The control in this experiment will be a group of plants the receive a standard
water source known to support healthy plant growth.
VI. Methodology:
Materials:
⁃ monggo seeds
⁃ Two watering containers ( e.g. pots , or cans )
⁃ Tap water
⁃ Coke
⁃ Soil
Procedure:
1. Fill 2pots with soil, label them "Tap Water",and "Soda". Plant 3-4
monggo seeds in each.
2. Water all pots initially with tap water. Then, water daily/every other
day: "Tap Water" with tap water, and with soda,
4. After a few weeks, compare plant growth between groups. Did soda affect
growth differently than tap water?
VII. Data:
VIII. Interpretation:
Yes, the plants that were watered with carbonated water, like soda, grew taller
than plants watered with tap water.
