Effect of Fertilizer Types on Plant Growth

Very Easy Research Summaries Interpreting Results

A group of researchers conducted an experiment to determine the effect of different types of fertilizers on plant growth. They set up three groups of identical plants. Group A received Organic Fertilizer, Group B received Synthetic Fertilizer, and Group C received no fertilizer (control group). After four weeks, the researchers measured the average height of the plants in each group. The results were as follows:

  • Group A (Organic): 15 cm
  • Group B (Synthetic): 20 cm
  • Group C (No Fertilizer): 10 cm

Based on these results, what can be concluded about the effect of fertilizer type on plant growth?
