The sweet potato grew more than the regular potatoes and did not die as quickly as the other potatoes. For example, the sweet potato went from 47.2 grams to 57 grams over a 5 day period, while potato A grew only 3.9 grams and potato B grew 2.2 grams over the same amount of time. When potatoes A and B died (regular potatoes) they decomposed and got mushy while potato C (sweet potato) only dried out and lost mass. The physical appearance of the sweet potato stayed mostly the same. So, it can be concluded that our hypothesis was mostly correct because the data points towards the idea that the sweet potato did a better job of regenerating and surviving than the other normal potatoes did.]]> 2017-01-09 14:48:21 UTC https://padlet.com/hliszka/gemdu10dtuoy/wish/145995015 ckozlowski2 https://padlet.com/hliszka/gemdu10dtuoy/wish/146152046 By: Anna Mae King, Hannah Liszka, Cailin Kozlowski ]]> 2017-01-10 02:31:28 UTC https://padlet.com/hliszka/gemdu10dtuoy/wish/146152046 aking210 https://padlet.com/hliszka/gemdu10dtuoy/wish/146154645 2017-01-10 03:25:57 UTC https://padlet.com/hliszka/gemdu10dtuoy/wish/146154645 aking210 https://padlet.com/hliszka/gemdu10dtuoy/wish/146155286 The reason that our height data table and graph is all 0 inches in growth is because the height of our potatoes was not a prominent aspect of the growth of them; they seemed to stay mostly the same height throughout the whole project. If we had measured the height, it most likely would not have shown any large changes because our potato plants never had any growths (leaves, roots, etc.)  coming out of them, although they did increase in mass.                                                  (graph below!)]]> 2017-01-10 03:36:28 UTC https://padlet.com/hliszka/gemdu10dtuoy/wish/146155286 aking210 https://padlet.com/hliszka/gemdu10dtuoy/wish/146155635 *Note: Some of the points on the graph are determined by averages due to the fact that the chosen graph website does not allow any gaps in data.

In the kitchen scrap war, the plants are able to grow and regenerate because cells divide and replace, creating more mass and growth for the plant. Different cells that have unique jobs are used in the plant's body. Some cells in the plant have no differentiation at all (they have no specific job or function). These are called stem cells and are also used to replace dead cells and create growth within an organism, as seen in the kitchen scrap war.]]> 2017-01-10 04:57:42 UTC https://padlet.com/hliszka/gemdu10dtuoy/wish/146159878 aking210 https://padlet.com/hliszka/gemdu10dtuoy/wish/146265847 Potatoes A and B died... had to start over with those potatoes; potato C is still the same potato.
