Suzy is growing sunflower seeds. She thinks that seeds will grow better in a bigger pot
she puts one seed into each of four different sized pots she puts them in the same warm place and waters them regularly after four days the seeds begin to grow she measures the height of the shoot every day.
What does Suzy do to make it a fair test?
Select one box.
Measure the shoots
put the pots in the same place
measures each shoot on a different day
uses four different pots
Arshad's class germinated seeds under different conditions. Here are the results.
Do seeds need light for germination? Choose the right explanation.
Yes. The seeds germinated well with Light
NO. Although, the seeds, germinated in Light, the seeds germinated even more in dark. So we can say that seeds do not need light to germinate.
Yes. The seeds need light to germinate as you can see 11 germinated.
NO. The experiment does not tell us anything, but I know that seeds do not need light to germinate.
Arshad's class had done an investigation with seeds. Here are the results. The seeds germinated both in dark and light and germinated more under dark and warm. Looking at the results, would you able to tell whether the seeds get water? How do you know this?
No. The seeds did not get water. It is not mentioned.
Yes. The seeds cannot germinate without water, water is a FACTOR for germination. Although, not mentioned, it is understood that the seeds got water.
No. The seeds would die if water was added.
Yes- The seeds got water may be because it was rainy season.

Soil
AC
