SummaryAcid rain has always been said to damage the plant life which absorbs the acid water as it would regular water. In this experiment we have decided to see whether this is true and if acid content of water has any effect on plant growth. We have setup an experiment and predict that pH will affect the height and leaf lengths of fast plants. Also we predict that the control will provide the largest plants.
Table of Contents
- Introduction
- pH is a measure of the acidity or alkalinity of a solution.
- The Wisconsin Fast Plant (Brassica rapa) is a special breed of plant that was developed to be used in scientific experiments.
- Method
- Due to the short time allotted for this experiment, fast plants were used.
- Each group was grown in separate planting quads.
- Results
- It is important to note that certain plants did not grow, which meant less data was available.
- Discussion
- It is obvious that a pH concentration of 4 is ideal for plant growth, even thought the data for leaf lengths says otherwise.
- This experiment as well as the questions raised by it can be very helpful in acquiring an understanding of plant life
