Question
ada and elijah have decided to do an experiment testing how sunlight affects plant growth. the students choose the same type of plants, soil, pots, and amount of water they give the plants. they also make sure each plant is put in their designated area for the same amount of time each day. one plant is placed outside, one in front of a window, and one in a closet. data is collected every day for a week. their results show that the plant outside grew the most and the plant in the closet has the least amount of growth. what are the constants in the experiment? plants soil sunlight closet water
Constants in an experiment are factors that are kept the same throughout. Here, the students chose the same type of plants, soil, and amount of water, so these are constants. Sunlight is the variable being tested, and the closet is just one of the locations (not a constant factor in the sense of what's controlled in the experiment).
