You have completed an experiment to test the hypothesis: “If plant growth is dependent on nitrogen, then plants given more nitrogen will grow faster.” You tested three sets of plants: set one received zero parts per million (ppm); set two received five ppm; set three received 10 ppm. Each set contained five plants. You watered each plant once a week for four weeks. You looked at plant height to determine if your hypothesis was supported. You represented the results in the bar graph below.

What was the control group?

The materials and methods for the “Colored Carnations” lab are below. Read through them and then answer the following question.
Materials needed:
Three white carnations
Three vases
Blue and red food coloring
Water
Procedure:
Step 1: Fill each vase with 100 milliliters (mL) (about ½ cup) of water.
Step 2: In one vase, add 20 drops of blue food coloring.
Step 3: In a different vase, add 20 drops of red food coloring.
Step 4: With scissors, cut each carnation stem at the bottom at an angle.
Step 5: Place one flower in each vase so that the cut part of the stem is fully submerged in the water.
Step 6: Create a table and record your observations every two hours.
