Task 3: Scientific Inquiry ProcessNameInstitutionTask 3: Scientific Inquiry ProcessThis experiment ascertained ways in which the quantity of fertilizer affects the growth (height) of studied plants. Besides, the experiment used levels of plant fertilizers higher and lower than that recommended by manufacturers to help test the study hypothesis. Primarily, it is believed that fertilizers improve the growth of plants, such is a notion that has been tested and studied over time (Pier et al. 2012). Even so, this experiment sought to identify ways in which high, low, and just moderate fertilizer application affects the growth of plants.Experiment’s HypothesisApplying too much or too little fertilizer to a plant slows down the plant’s growthProblem StatementPlants require nutrients to grow. Besides, fertilizers are dependable sources of plants nutrients and have been applied for a long time. Nonetheless, it is argued that too much of anything is dangerous for the person or thing involved. Plants take in water through their roots via a process called osmosis. Thus, this study requires a higher salt concentration in plants’ roots than in the soil, which makes water to move from the soil to neutralize plant’s roots. In fact, the
