Effect of Growth on Mung Bean Solution

Effect of Salt stem on Mung Bean suppuration Hypothesis If the Mung Beans are pissed with a higher season solution, and then less Mung Beans precede behind sprout. tin Murrell 9-18-12 Magnet Biology Introduction This try was d adept to test the effect of season solution on green gram domed stadium crop. Gener aloney when you grow golden gram beans you beatify them in peeing for eight to twelve hours and then put them in a secern container to sprout. Since this audition was non monitored every hour, and had limited resources, we could non soak the golden gram beans for that period of time.There are multiple shipway to grow mung beans but since the experiment was to test the effect of different season solutions, one particular way was chosen. Methods 1. run across two writing pass overs and two petri beautyes, no safety goggles or gloves will be required for this experiment. 2. billet a petri dish on a report card towel and trace the shag of it so a circ le is drawn. Do this doubly on for from each(prenominal) one one paper towel so there are 4 separate circles drawn. 3. Separate the top and bottom of each petri dish so they notify each be used separately, creating iv dishes. 4. Label the petri dishes Di nonoperationaled, . 5 solution, . 50 solution, and . 75 solution 5. Cut out the circles that were traced on the paper towel sheets. 6. Place one paper towel circle in the bottom of each dish. 7. Now coin a graduated cylinder and channelise 20 mL of distilled pee in it. 8. Pour the 20 mL of water on top of one of the paper towels in the dish so it bunghole soak up the water. 9. Repeat feel seven with a . 25, . 50, and . 75 sodium chloride solution. Be sure to put each one in a separate petri dish with a paper towel circle in it. 10. Place 20 mung beans in each petri dish be sure to check that the mung beans are paced apart from each other. 11. Place the petri dishes on a counter and leave them there for five days. 12. Ta ke measurements each day and record results. Results Table 1 Amount of Beans spud Amount of Beans Sprouted Day 1 Day 2 Day 3 Day 4 Day 5 Distilled Water 0 0 0 0 0 .25 Salinity 0 0 0 0 0 .50 Salinity 0 0 0 0 0 .75 Salinity 0 0 0 0 0 Figure 1 Conclusion Based on the results of this experiment, salt solution does not affect the growth of mung beans. However, there were several mistakes do in this experiment that would need to be corrected next time.One of them was taking the eyelid off of the petri dish and using it as a separate container. Doing this do the water and solution vaporize faster, and when it did evaporate it was only put out into the environment. If there was a top to the petri dish the water would conduct stayed in the dish and recondensed after evaporation. An substitute(a) to this would have been keeping just two petri dishes with the top and testing one salt solution against distilled water, or plastic wrapping could have been put over each of the four separat e dishes.Another mistake made was placing the dishes by a window. This allowed the sun to remove the dishes, which also caused the water and solution to evaporate faster. If this experiment is conducted again the petri dishes would be position on a counter that is not by a window. The third and utmost major mistake made was placing xx mung beans in each petri dish. This did not provide the space the mung beans essential to grow, and caused them to each have less water since they had to compete for it. This experiment neither proved nor disproved the hypothesis made.If this experiment is conducted in the future, with all the corrections established, the original hypothesis generated would still be used. This hypothesis would also be based solely on priming coat information discovered about mung bean growth, since there was no information created from this experiment.
