    the data collected from the experiment that was conducted, the presence of agricultural runoff is harmful to an elodea plant. Although the rate of growth was only minorly affected, the harsh chemicals in the solution killed the plants. The null hypothesis cannot be rejected since the Chi-square value, 3.34, is less than the critical value of 7.81, as can be seen in Table 1. Additionally in Figure 1, the differences in the height of the plants are trivial, for they are only off by a few…
