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
