Question

statistical analysis - in lab we planted 15 pots for each indepdent variable (eucalyptus glob, eucalyptus fit, kale, control) and recorded the growth after 2 weeks. now in each pot some had a range of plants that grew and others had 0. in lab the teacher wants us to do a stat analysis of this data but how would go about doing this is each corresponding pot from each independent variable varied. some insight would help a lot

things we recorded: width of largest plant, height, mass, # of plants in each of the 15 pot for each ind. var.

Explanation / Answer

Various analysis you can do are as follows:

1. You can find the average growth between plants ( eucalyptus glob, eucalyptus fit, kale, control)

2. You can use different types of fertilizers and test their effects on plants, considering the other conditions are homogeneous like amount of water used , types of seeds etc

3. Bycalculating the average growth and standard deviation of each type of plants, we can calculate the probabilities or prediction of next weeks growth.
