3. RESEARCH QUESTION: Does music effects a plants growth?

4. SUPPLIES: Music Player Music Cups Water Plants (2) Batteries Soil Containers Seeds(Sun Flowers)

5. We planted our plants with sunflower seeds.

6. EXPERIMENTAL CONDITIONS: AMOUNT OF MUSIC AMOUNT OF WATER AMOUNT OF SUN AMOUNT OF SOIL AMOUNT OF SEEDS Plant One: 2 hours of Country Music 1 QUART. WATER 3 HRS.¾ CUP3 SEEDS Plant Two:2 hours of ROCK `N ROLL Music ½ CUP OF WATER 2 HRS.¾ CUP2 SEEDS

7. HYPOTHESIS The group came up with the prediction that the music will make the plant grow faster.

8. EXPERIMENTAL METHODS: 1/3 of a cup of soil Use sunflower seeds Quarter cup of water twice a week we used old school rhythm and blues, on one of the plants and rock `n roll on the other.

9. February 17, 2009 Data Plant One: Plant Two: Growth NO Growth Soil Texture DryMoist Life Process No Life

10. February 24, 2009 Data Plant One:Plant Two: Growth 3 inches tall1.2 inches 2.½ inches Soil TextureDry soilSoggy Wet Soil Life ProcessOne life2 lives

11. Comparison of plant 1 and 2 -grew within two weeks -both in soil -got watered -had the same amount of soil -have seed attached to plant The Second Plant: -grew ½ inches -has two plant lives -roots not visible -soggy wet soil The First Plant; -grew 3 inches -has one plant life -has dry soil -roots stick out

12. Plant One

13. Plant Two

14. March 10, 2009 Plant One:Plant Two: Growth : Produced1. No growth 2. More growth to 2 nd Life Soil Texture:Dry SoilWet Soil Life Process:Plant Dying _______

15. March 24, 2009 Plant One:Plant Two: Growth: No growth at all in fact the plant only grew to moisture in soil not from water. -Growing hysterical !!! -Growing stem roots. -Grew to 5 inches. -Roots are visble. Soil Texture: Soil is very dry and desert like. Moist. Over watered. Life Process:Plant still dying.2 more lives approaching

16. Conclusion After 4 weeks of harvesting Plant Two grew more than Plant One. Our group came up with the analysis that Plant One had less water than Plant Two which caused it to grow more rapidly. Plant one only lived from the moisture in its soil.

17. ROCK ‘N ROLL makes plants grow faster!!!

18. THE END!!!
