1. How does temperature affect the growth of the radish plant?

2. Hypothesis
If the plant placed near the window has a lot of moisture, then we think that the plant without the heating pad will grow the tallest. The heating pad will eventually dry up the soil even if we happen to water it every day. Watering the plant placed on top of the heating pad everyday won’t prevent the soil from being arid. As a result, we predict that the plant that’s kept in room temperature (75.2 degrees Fahrenheit~ degrees Fahrenheit), placed near the window for natural sunlight, and watered every other day will grow taller than the plants that are getting light from a lamp and heat from a heating pad.
