Question

Caroline wondered if soil type influence plant growth. She compared two soil samples. She planted 10 marigold plants: 5 in soil sample #1 and 5 in soil sample #2. Caroline monitored the plant growth over a 4-week time period. Her experimental data is summarized in the table. Caroline concluded that plants grow best in humus-rich soil. What comment applies to Caroline's experiment?

A) This is a valid experiment. Caroline's conclusion is accurate.
