Soil with seeds is a control group in an experiment using soil with compost and seeds. The results will indicate the role of dark-colored, fresh-smelling, nutrient-rich humus in the appropriate timing and proper development of seeds.
Bacteria breaking down the materials cause heat. The compost should rise as high as 146-165 Degrees to fully kill all weed seeds and other organisms.

Washing the seeds in Step 3 of the experiment serves to remove any surface contaminants, such as dirt, pathogens, or chemicals, that could affect seed germination or plant growth. This step ensures that the seeds start with a clean slate, allowing for more accurate results in assessing their viability and growth potential. Additionally, it helps to prevent any external factors from influencing the experiment's outcome.
We have no way of reading your teacher's mind to guess what he or she might have been thinking in asking such a nebulous question as this. The answer your teacher is expecting is probably contained within your reading assigment, and I strongly recommend that you search it to avoid losing points.However, the primary thing (in my opinion) that you need to remember when conducting a controlled experiment is to control the experiment. Don't introduce multiple variables unless you have to, make the experiment "double-blind" to the extent possible (if your control group is getting sugar cubes while the experimental group is getting something that tastes like cotton balls dipped in alum, somebody's gonna notice), et cetera.
Composting relies on natural processes that decompose organic materials. This includes certain chemical processes that are carried out by microorganisms which thrive under ideal conditions. They work most efficiently when the correct moisture level is present and they are given enough oxygen. Their activity creates the heat in a compost bin which can be warm enough to kill weed seeds and sterilize the material.
To compost seeds effectively, avoid adding seeds from plants that are invasive or difficult to control. Make sure the compost pile reaches a high enough temperature to kill the seeds, and turn the pile regularly to ensure even decomposition. Additionally, consider using a compost bin or tumbler to contain the seeds and prevent them from spreading.
Yes, you can put seeds in compost and they may still grow, as compost provides nutrients and a healthy environment for plants to thrive.
no
seedling compost is decomposed manure as it is higher in nutrients therfore better for planting seeds
control group will be the same seed, moisture and environment
To effectively incorporate seeds into your compost for healthy soil and plant growth, ensure the seeds are from non-invasive plants, crush or grind them to prevent germination, and mix them well into the compost to provide nutrients for the soil and plants.

An experiment which can be used to investigate the effect of gamma radiation on Mongo seeds can be described as follows; plant 5 seeds in different containers. Expose 4 seeds to different levels of gamma radiation. Document the growth levels of each seed, and the resulting plant or flower that is or is not produced.
Get some seeds. Get a pot of compost. Put the seeds in, cover with a very thin layer of more compost. Leave, make sure its kept moist. Should grow in no time.
Promotion of slow but steady growth and protection from soluble salts are reasons why seedling compost is good for growing seeds. Fertilizers can emphasize lush above-ground parts to the detriment of below-ground roots and seeds. Seedling compost tends to provide seeds and seedlings protection from the soluble salts in such necessary nutrients as calcium and magnesium compounds.
Potting compost.
The tube that contains only glass beads is called the control tube. It is used as a control in the germinating seed experiment to provide a baseline comparison for the experimental tube with seeds.
