Broad Question
what is the effect of the nutrents on spirodela growth

Specific Question
does the the nutrients effect the growth of spirodela

Hypothesis
I think it will double the growth

Graph of Hypothesis
media type="custom" key="12929266" width="473" height="473"

Independent Variable:
amount of nutrients

Dependent Variable:
growth

Variables That Need To Be Controlled:
water, sunlight, temperature

General Plan
I am going to grow spirodelia in four different containers. The four different containers will have different amounts of nutrients. They all will have the same amount of water.

Potential Problems And solutions
Some of the spirodela will not grow in time and some wont grow at all. There might not be any sunlight The temperature might be inconsistent I will put them in the same spot

Safety Or Environment
water will go on the floor and i will fall on my face

Experimental Design
(add the correct headings from the experimental design page before beginning)

Background Research
Phytoremediation of Cr(VI) by Spirodela polyrrhiza in binary combinations with low molecular weight organic compounds (LMWOCs) with a reducing or chelating potential, viz., ascorbic acid, citric acid, tartaric acid, oxalic acid, lactic acid, and glycerol was studied in Cr(VI) containing hydroponic media. Significant increase in the relative dry weight of plants with respect to Cr(VI) treated controls was observed with ascorbic acid and glycerol. The uptake of chromium by S. polyrrhiza followed Michaelis-Menten kinetics of active ion uptake. Interaction between Cr and ascorbic acid, oxalic acid, and lactic acid decreased Cr uptake, whereas citric acid, glycerol, and tartaric acid increased it. Supplementation of LMWOCs to Cr(VI) containing media decreased the MDA content of the plants. Multiple regression models revealed that LMWOCs decrease lipid peroxidation independently, as well as that induced by Cr(VI). It was found that superoxide dismutase (SOD), guaiacol peroxidase (GPX), and catalase (CAT) activities were increased significantly in plants growing in media containing Cr(VI). The study established that lactic acid, citric acid, ascorbic acid, and glycerol were most effective in increasing the Cr(VI) phytoremediating potential of S. polyrrhiza and LMWOCs with reducing or chelating properties decrease Cr(VI) stress in S. polyrrhiza.

Abstract
the amount of nutreints does not effect the ammount of
