Research Information


Research Question
How does light affect germination?

Research Predictions


Experimental Design
Step 1 Take out all materials. Seeds, tissue, plastic bag, and a liter of water.
Step 2 Open the plastic bag up and a tissue and put it in the plastic bag but make sure you water the tissue before putting it in the bag.
Step 3 Put 3 milliliters of water in the bag
Step 4 Take 5 red beans and put them at the bottom and spread them out nice and even. Make sure they have space. Repeat step 5 for the second packet which goes in the dark.

Farewell and Best Wishes
As this research project is now in the final stages of wrapping-up, we wish to thank everyone who participated in this inquiry; the students, mentors, teachers and others behind the scenes. We appreciate all of your efforts and contributions to this online learning community.

Scientific exploration is a process of discovery that can be fun! There are many unanswered questions about plants just waiting for new scientists to consider, investigate, and share.

Please come back and visit the PlantingScience Research Gallery Archive anytime to view this project in the future. You can search the Archive by key word, team name, topic, or school name.

Good bye for now.
Warm regards,
The PlantingScience team

greetings
Im Here to inform you of are future plans with our plan. We Havent started but heres our plans. Step 1 Take out all materials. Seeds, tissue, plasitic, bag, and a liter of water. Step2 open the plastic bag up and a tissue and put it in the plastic bag but make sure you water the tissue b4 puttin in the bag. Step 3 put 3 milliters of water in the bag Step 4 take 5 red beans put them at the bottom and speard them out nice and even. Make sure they have space. (reapeat for the same for the secound packet which goes in the dark..

Ok, I'm still waiting for a picture. How light and temperature affect germination is a good thing to wonder about. Why don't you describe your experimental setup to me.

Nope its jeremia marco and hector and we want to learn about how light and tempature Affect germination

Ok, Purple Haze. First, let's see a picture of little Einstein and Jeremia. Are you guys the only ones on this team? Now, you're going to study seed germination, is that right? What, exactly do you want--or expect--to learn about seed germination?

hey, Robynn Shannon
Hi my name is jeremia and im am very interseted in this project and to work with you.im doing great and actually liking this experiment.My experiment is going to be about seed germination and the dependent and independent variables. One fact of seed germination is when the process in which a plant emerges from a seed and begins growth

Welcome!
I am happy to welcome you to this community of plant researchers. Your team has the opportunity to be mentored by a scientist to help you develop and perform your own research project. The mentor's role is to encourage and guide you through the scientific process of discovery. The more you share your ideas and research information online, the more your mentor can help.

Your scientist mentor for this project will be Dr. Robynn Shannon from Connecticut . Please introduce yourself and post some possible research topic ideas to get a conversation rolling.

These resources are available to help you get started:
Thinking Like a Scientist / Working Like a Scientist
Designing Experiments
Guide to Using A Spreadsheet

Best wishes as you start this scientific journey. We are all pleased to share this experience with you.
Have fun!

Sincerely,
The PlantingScience team
