Abstract
Green beans (also known as string beans and shi-so in Japanese) are vegetables that provide us with important vitamins and nutrients such as Vitamin K, Vitamin C, Vitamin A, manganese, and dietary fiber. Vitamin K helps stimulate blood clotting. Vitamin C boosts the immune system. Vitamin A helps one see in the dark (night vision) and in trace amounts manganese is important for our metabolism.
Students grow green bean plants using various liquids to determine which one grows the best in regards to height, appearance, etc.
