ordan is doing a science fair project on the effects of music on the growth of tomatoes. He has two tomato plants, Plant A and Plant B, that he grows in a window and gives the same amount of water. Plant A is exposed to classical music using headphones attached to the soil. Plant B is not exposed to music. Throughout the growth period, Jordan counts the number of tomatoes produced by each plant. Plant A = 35 Tomatoes | Plant B = 55 Tomatoes 1) What is the control group? 2) What is the manipulated variable?
What is 1)group B and 2)exposure to classical music?
