Results • From The beginning of my research, it was obvious to me what the results would tell me. • The plan that is receiving detergent start to show leaf injury. 1-Turning wilted. 2- Turning brown and yellow. • Root ball and stem from the plant was getting rot. • Plant stayed very moist. • The information gained from this experiment will alert people to the dangerous effect of detergents on plants.
Conclusion • In conclusion, our experiment went as planed. Show me how the plant was effected by detergents. • The detergents started killing the plant after the first week. • Any kind of plants could be effect by detergents. • Detergents will not damage plants if concentration are low. Detergents should be used cautiously as pesticides in order to avoid damage to plants. • That high concentration of chemicals in the detergent would kill the plants.
