1. Sunflowers and Acid Rain
Anthony Rodriguez period

2. Introduction
The purpose of this experiment was to find out what happens when you water sunflower seeds with 10% Vinegar water and Tap water. We were trying to find out what the results would be if it would grow or whiter. The control was the tap water and the variable was 10% vinegar water.

3. Materials Materials Plastic cup super growing pellets
Triple beams balance scale
Sunflower seeds
Water
Ruler
Data sheet

4. Mehtod Add super growing pellets to cup.
Add 3 tablespoons of water to expand
Plant 3 seeds of water to expand
Weigh cup on triple beam balance. Record weight.
Add tap water or Vinegar water to cup. Weigh again and record data.
Cup will be placed under grow light.
Observe the container daily and note any indications of growth(by observations and measurement) and compare to other containers in the experiment. While observing indicate any special care given to the plant. (Did you need to add more
or less water? Did you need to rotate the plant?)
Record observations, measurements, and comments in the plant growth diary. Once the plant begins to grow, you will need to draw a detailed picture of the plant including the appearance of leaves and stems.
Each day , repeat steps 3 through 8.

5. Scientific method Ask a Question State Your Hypothesis
Identify Control & Variable
Test Your Hypothesis
Collect & Record Your Datas
Interpret Your Data
State Your Conclusion

6. Ask a question
What if some days you added tap and other days you added 10% vinegar water?

7. State The Hypothesis
If I plant a sunflower seed I think that depending on what water you use it will flourish or whither.

8. Identify Control and Variable
The control uses tap water and the Variable uses 10% Vinegar water.

9. Test Your Hypothesis
If I add tap water to my sunflower seed, then it will flourish because the water will become food to the seed and it will grow.

12. State the Conclusion
The results of this lab did not support my hypothesis instead of it growing it withered. I learned that to grow a plant you have to take proper care of it.
