Answer 3

Possible aim: Which type of soil is best for plant growth

Question 4

Hypothesis language example: how different types of soil affect plant growth

Answer 4

Possible hypothesis: Plants will grow better in soil that is rich in nutrients and well-draining

Question 5

Aim: Gummy Bears & Salt conc.

Answer 5

To investigate the effect of different salt concentration on the mass (g) of gummy bears

Question 6

Hypothesis: Gummy Bears & Salt conc.

Answer 6

If gummy bears are placed in a high salt concentration, they will shrink in size (decrease in mass) due to osmosis, whereas if they are placed an a low salt concentration, they will expand in size (increase in mass)
