experiment:

Question 21

Jasmine decided to see if different soda brands would affect the growth of plants.

She took three identical sets of tomato plants, placed them all in the same area

and gave each plant 10 ml. of water a day. Group A received no additional

treatment. Group B got 2 ml of Coke, and Group C got 2 ml of Sprite. She measured

average growth for 2 weeks. Group A grew an average of 5 cm, Group B grew an average of 7 cm, and Group C grew 5

cm.
