5. A gardener tests a new plant food by planting seeds from the same package in the same soil and location. Each plant is given the same amount of water, but one plant is given food and the other is given no food at all. He records the growth and flowering rates of each plant. What type of study method is described in this situation?

3. Mrs. Gulliver wants to find out whether or not Miracle Grow really makes plants grow faster. She takes two identical pots, puts 1/2 cup of dirt into each one. Puts 3 pea plant seeds in each one, and tops each off with 1/2 cup more dirt. She waters the plants the same amount at the same time each day. The only differences is that one plant is watered with regular water, while the other is watered with water that has Miracle Grow in it.

Observation: I want to know what effect salt has on the growth of grass. So I measure out 3 equal-sized squares of grass out the back of the Green Building. The first square of lawn I water with 5 liters of pure water from a watering can every day. The second square of lawn I water with 5 liters of pure water with 2 grams of salt mixed in, every day. The third square of lawn I water with 5 liters of pure water with 4 grams of salt mixed in, every day. I measure the height of the grass after 14 days and note the following observations. The first square is green and 15 cm high. The second square is greeny-yellow and 6 cm high. The third square is yellowy-brown and looks dead and is only 2cm high. What could we infer about the effect salt has on the growth of grass?
