Question
In the second experiment there was a question as to whether the initial height of the plants had an impact on the overall growth rate of the plants under the different treatments. To look at this you will need to create a graph that relates initial heights to growth.

Your Instructions
1. Graph the data so that a comparison of initial height to final height can be made (this should be one graph, not three separate graphs)
2. Include an appropriate title that indicates what is being compared
3. Clearly and accurately label both the X and Y axes
4. Provide a legend, which indicates the actual treatments
5. Provide a brief explanation that indicates whether initial plant height impacted response to the treatments.
How would I plot this graph? i am confused.

Explanation / Answer
1. Take plant height on Y-axis. Take average plant initial height and growth rate. Then on X-axis, plot three treatments in three different groups, each consisting of initial height and plant growth. Represent the significance by P value (ANOVA).
