Germinating corn (monocot) seed
This year, as
part of a performance prompt for biology, you will be
designing and conducting an experiment to investigate the effect of an
environmental factor on seed germination. In any scientific inquiry,
one of the first steps is to gather background information about the topic
to be investigated.
