Question

You are a newly employed "hotshot" lab technician at a fereiliser company tasks you with evaluating the effectivenes of a new formulastion of an older fertiliner. The company supplies you with rwo cornficlds of 2.000 acres and plenty of fentiliaet Design an experiment using all aspects of the scientific method. Be sune to clealy define your groups and other components (such as the dependent variable, independent variable, and standards/controls) of the scientific method. Assume there is an ouscome so chis experiment after 6 monchs of experimentation. You may decide if the experiment prodaces positive or negative results. However, DEFINE and DESCRIBE all aspects for fuill credit. le may be helpful to a draw a graph or two. a. What hypothesis is being tested b. What is the independent variable? What is the dependent variable Describe what the control group is. c. d. List six elements of this experiment that must be comtrlled berween the coperimenal and control groups. Draw a graph that shows that this new formula of fertilizer is succesful at growing c. more corn.

Explanation / Answer

Ans-A- the hypothesis being tested is the effectiveness of the new fertiliser in different climatic condition.

Ans-B- the independent variable is the area in which corns are growing i.e. 2000 acre. The dependent variables is the quantity of fertilisers.

Ans-C- the control group in this experiment will be the field in which no fertiliser is used or the field in which old fertiliser is used.

Ans-D- the six elements are

Area of field, quantity of fertiliser, irrigation, temperature, soil, crop duration,

These should be controlled between both of them.
