For each assignment, you will use the M.U.S.E. link to

complete the Lab.

In this lab, you will be observing the impact of

mineral nitrogen fertilizer usage on maizes crop yield, which is measured

in milligrams of dry mass harvested per 100 acres (1 hectare) during a 1-year

period. Use the animation to help you come up with an answer to the following:

Complete a lab report using the scientific method.

Using the Scientific Method Lab

Using the M.U.S.E. link, review the background information

and animation to complete your report. Use the .aiu-online.com/LCMSFileShareCommon/aae/e5d/845/dbe/493/c8f/d7f/119/b05/d63/84/SCIE207_Lab1_worksheet.doc”>Lab 1 worksheet for assignment instructions and data

collection.

Both arable and nonarable land have been chosen as the

experimental cultivation sites near the city of Melle, Germany, where the yield

of maize was observed from 1990 through 1998. The climate variations have also

been carefully recorded on equally sized lots of both types of land.

Phase 1 Lab Report

Title: Using

Scientific Method

Instructions:You

will need to write a 1-page lab report using the scientific method to answer

the following questions:

Define a hypothesis that is suggested by

the data collected in the lab.

Complete a lab report using the scientific

method.

When your lab

report is complete, post it in Submitted Assignment files.

Part 1:Using

the lab animation, fill in the following data tables to help you generate your

hypothesis, outcomes, and analysis:
