Seed Lab
I. Purpose/Question:
A. What is the variable you are testing? Radish seed vs. Pea seed
B. Question 1: How does seed type affect when the seeds germinate?
C. Question 2: How does seed type affect the length of the stem?
II. Research: List two pieces of information you learned about the variable you are testing below. The radish stem was longer. Both seeds germinated equally fast.
III. Hypothesis:
Make these an “If-then” statement and do not use pronouns (I, we, he, she). Remember to be specific and don’t use words such as “it” or “you”, and never ever use a person’s name.
A. Hypothesis 1: If the pea seed is in the light then the pea seed won’t grown as fast compared to the radish seed in the light.
B. Hypothesis 2: If the radish seed is in the water then it will grow faster compared to the pea seed.
IV. Results:
