This week in science #2


                                                          A picture of Brassica rapa

This week in science i learned many interesting things . I learned all about Brassica rapa which is a type of seed . One of the cool things about this seed is that its lifespan is about a month . It reaches full growth , & they are made to grow fast . Then i was given a task to write a few fact about the Brassica rapa by searching it online . I find this seed very interesting & its in the mustard family .

 Now my group & I are going to try a experiment with the brassica rapa . Our question is - Does the depth of the the seed affect the growth ? So we put seeds in 3 different cups at different depths to see if the depth does affect the growth . We also had a little fun with "poppers" which are little plastic toys that use air suction to pop of the table . We used these for a experiment .
