Fiona wanted to determined sugar water afected the growth rate of bean plant seeds. She buried a total of 12 bean plant seeds, each in its own pot with identical soil and placed the pots in a sunny place. She watered each group of plants with 200
mis (L) of water med with a specific amount of sugar. The table below shows the final height in centimeters (om) at the plants atter the experiment was completed

Did the experiment correctly use the scientific method for experimentation?
No, because the amount of sugar was not high enough to make a difference in the growth
No, because there was no control setup in the experimento a comparison cannot be made
Yes, because there were multiple trials and several test variables (independent variables) that were tested
here were multiple trials and all the plants had some sort of growth so all requirements were met
