Daily Science Partner B Thursday SpongeBob loves to garden and wants to grow lots of pink flowers for his pal Sandy. He bought a special Flower Power fertilizer to see if will help plants produce more flowers. He plants two plants of the same size in separate containers with the same amount of potting soil. He places one plant in a sunny window and waters it every day with fertilized water. He places the other plant on a shelf in a closet and waters it with plain water every other day. What did SpongeBob do wrong in this experiment? Explain.

Answer: SpongeBob did not provide both plants with the same amount of water and sunshine. In order to test the fertilizer correctly, both plants should have been placed in the sunny window and watered every day with the same amount of water. The only difference between the two plants should have been the fertilizer - one plant would be watered with the water with fertilizer and the other would be watered with plain water.

Explain three ways this picture is related to science. Daily Science Quiz Friday ***Explain your answer!***

A student sets up an experiment to see which type of light helps plants grow longer beans. He places two identical bean plants seedlings in two different trays. He plants one seedling in soil taken from his garden and one seedling in soil taken from a field. He places them under two different lights, one blue and one red. Which of these is a possible flaw that would make it difficult to draw a clear conclusion from the experiment? Daily Science Partner B Tuesday ***REMEMBER TO EXPLAIN BEFORE YOU WRITE ANYTHING!***

Daily Science (Partner B) Monday ***REMEMBER TO EXPLAIN BEFORE YOU WRITE ANYTHING!*** Analyze the data. Why do you think the cans of diet soda float but the regular soda did not.

answer The diet soda floated because its total weight is less than the regular soda making it less dense.

Daily Science (Partner A) Monday ***REMEMBER TO EXPLAIN BEFORE YOU WRITE ANYTHING!***

Answer The student wants to test HOW WILL DIFFERENT TYPES OF LIGHT AFFECT BEAN PLANTS GROWTH. A. He uses the same seeds. He should because he is not testing different types if seeds. B. He uses different lights. He should because he is testing different types of lights. C. He uses different types of soil. He should NOT because he is not testing different types of soil. He needs to keep everything the same except the IV (what he is testing). D. He uses the same type of plant. He should because he is not testing different types of plants.
