Identify Experimental and Control Group In The Experiment?

John Obtains Two Healthy Plants Of The Same Variety And Size.He Plants Each Plant In The Same Type of Pot%26amp;The Same Brand Of Potting mix.He Then Places Both Plants In The Same Window of The House.He Waters PlantA every Other day with 250ML of Water %26amp;Waters Plant B once A Week With 250ML water.He Measures The Height Of The Plants Once a Week For 6Weeks





Identify The Experimental and Control Group In The Experiment|||First don't capitalize every word it gives people headaches when they try to read it. Second it would most likely be plant A but you could argue that it is impossible to determine the control and the experimental group due to the fact that the hypothesis was not given. If it said something along the lines of John wished to test the effects of increased time between watering of plants on the height of said plant it would make sense but because it doesn't the best answer would be that there can be no determination due to the ambiguity of the question and the lack of details to what the data that was gathered from the experiment was attempting to answer.
