Question

data analysis #3 (10 points) different plant species require different amounts of direct sunlight in order to flower. a student designed an experiment to determine the length of exposure to direct sunlight necessary for a specific plant species to produce flowers and measured the percentage of plants with flowers to determine success. in the box below, design a data table that would allow students to collect and organize data on this experiment.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify variables

The independent variable is the amount of direct - sunlight exposure (e.g., 1 hour, 2 hours, etc.). The dependent variable is the percentage of plants with flowers.

Step2: Design table structure

The table should have columns for plant species (if multiple species are tested), amount of direct sunlight exposure, and percentage of plants with flowers. Rows will represent different data points for each level of sunlight exposure.

Step3: Example table layout

Plant Species	Amount of Direct Sunlight Exposure (hours)	Percentage of Plants with Flowers
Species 1	2	[Data to be filled]
Species 1	3	[Data to be filled]
Species 2	1	[Data to be filled]
Species 2	2	[Data to be filled]
Species 2	3	[Data to be filled]

Answer:

Plant Species	Amount of Direct Sunlight Exposure (hours)	Percentage of Plants with Flowers
