What is the difference between cohesion and adhesion?
Cohesion - water sticks to water
Adhesion - water sticks to something that is not water

What do enzymes do for a chemical reaction?
(hint: they catalyze)
They speed up a reaction

How would an experiment be set up to measure plant growth with different fertilizers? Create the problem/question, hypothesis, IV, DV, an experimental plan, control.
Problem/question: what fertilizer helps plant growth?
Hypothesis: If I add miraclegrow, the plant will grow faster
IV: Fertilizer types
DV: Plant height
Control: No fertilizer
Experimental plan: add a gram of fertilizer once a week, measure height every week for a month
