Using the suggested web sites, research growing plants in space and the effects of gravity on plant growth.
Choose one aspect of plant growth and movement that you observed at the Plants in Motion web site. How would that aspect of a plant's growth and movement be affected if it were grown in space? Identify conditions found on the space shuttle (or a space station) that might cause changes in the plant's development.
Design an experiment to explore how this process would be altered in a weightless environment.
Write a description of the proposed experiment. The proposal should include the following features:
A description of the plant developmental process to be observed
Description of the environmental condition being tested
Hypothesis being tested
Description of experimental procedures
Description of all necessary controls
Implications of research
