Question

study the provided evidence. sort them into \supports genetic factors\ or \supports environmental factors\ for plant growth. move each statement to the correct column.
supports genetic factors
supports environmental factors
observations show that a plant type always grows tall stems, no matter the environment.
results show that plants with added nutrients grow larger than those without.
research explains how drought - resistant plants survive in dry regions.
data shows that plants of the same species grow to different heights when given different light levels.

Explanation:

1. "Observations show that a plant type always grows tall stems, no matter the environment." indicates that the growth trait is inherent, so it supports genetic factors.
2. "Results show that plants with added nutrients grow larger than those without." implies that external nutrient - rich environment affects growth, supporting environmental factors.
3. "Research explains how drought - resistant plants survive in dry regions." shows the role of environmental conditions (drought) on plant survival, supporting environmental factors.
4. "Data shows that plants of the same species grow to different heights when given different light levels." indicates that light as an environmental factor affects growth, supporting environmental factors.

Answer:

Supports Genetic Factors: Observations show that a plant type always grows tall stems, no matter the environment.
Supports Environmental Factors: Results show that plants with added nutrients grow larger than those without.; Research explains how drought - resistant plants survive in dry regions.; Data shows that plants of the same species grow to different heights when given different light levels.
