A scientist wants to observe how plants respond when growing in an overcrowded area. After 200 seedlings are planted close together, plant height is monitored for several weeks. Which parts of this study would most likely rely on technology? Check all that apply.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Although the question is incomplete, here I add the missing options:

  • making future predictions about plant behavior
  • processing large amounts of plant height data quickly
  • determining an estimated plant height for one seedling
  • simulating how plants grow when other variables are modified
  • recording observations about plant growth in a science notebook

Correct answer is A. "making future predictions about plant behavior "

Explanation:

The most important part of the question is "overcrowded area" which leads to the future concerned scenario of modern societies. We know that, in future, the supply of resources/nutrients will be limited and thus we want to develop sustainable practices. For this, scientists often carry out the experiments where the organisms are forced to live/grow in a crowded area and then we understand how each individual responds in the presence of limited resource supply. In this experiment, I perceive that the scientist is doing a similar kind of study for a specific plant which will help him assess the future concerns of growth and development for that species as well as its interaction with the environment.
