Summary Introduction
To determine:
The change in the graph in the figure, if nitrogen did not affect leaf structure.
Concept introduction:
Carnivorous plants have adapted to living in the low nutrient areas of wetland in an adaptive way. They have developed structures that allow the plant to trap and digest insects. The insects provide the necessary nutrients that they cannot obtain from the soil.

- Name Date Period Using Scientific Method The following describes an experiment to determine the effect of additional nitrogen on plant growth. Read the paragraph carefully, then answer the questions. Dr. Anderson set up an experiment in which she planted bean seeds in two groups, A and B. After the sceds germinated, Group A was fed a balanced application of fertilizer with additional nitrogen, as recommended by most plant growers. Group B was grown under identical conditions, except the fertilizer they received contained no additional nitrogen. Dr. Anderson observed the plants for one month. You can see the results in Figure 1. Group A Group B Figure 1 1) What was the hypothesis for this experiment? (Use IF... THEN .. statement) 2) Which plants represent the control group?
