Plants and humans/animals are both beneficial to each other to make each of their source of energy to make the world a better place to live in, but there are some factors that can implicate both plants and humans/animals life, one of these factors is the amount of salinity that both organisms can intake. Salt is made up of high levels of sodium which can be used for many great ways like consumption and ways to help clean roads and or cars. While consumption can be a positive way to use salt cleaning up roads can cause erosion which could be a dangerous way for living things to have in their body especially plants. So we as a group have decided to experiment and understand the effect of salinity on lentil beans. Salt is something that is hard to understand its chemical compound and we as a group wanted to pick and not only understand more about the growth but also about salt. We also think that it would not only help us understand more about the growth of plants under environmental circumstances, but it would also help us to understand more about the effect on legumes and how long it would leave the bean in that dormant state. We think our best option would be to do this experiment for three trials using our independent variable. For the three trials we think we should use our basic measurement uses teaspoon and our measurements would include 5 grams of salt, 10 grams of salt and 15 grams of salt. We believe that the least amount of salt will increase the lentil beans germination period because salt contains sodium which could lower plant’s oxygen and glucose outtake. So the 5 grams will have the most growth while the 15 grams will have the least
