Submission Required
Using sample radish setups and short case data, students analyze how plant biology, environmental science, and chemistry affect fair testing decisions. They compare independent variables, constants, confounding factors, and pH or nutrient conditions that could distort results if not managed carefully. Students annotate a method-planning organizer that will guide their own trial design.
