    Not surprisingly, the grow beast grown in water surpassed the beast grown in the salty, fatty chicken broth (which I am not sad to see removed from my kitchen counter!). The high salt and fat content of the chicken broth significantly stunted its growth. Next time, having four or five grow beasts for each solution would produce stronger results. Also, it would be interesting to grow a grow beast in water, chicken broth, and vegetable broth--which I assume has less fat content compared to the chicken broth. Progress would again be documented over the course of four or five days, with all measurements in centimeters. I imagine that the grow beast in vegetable broth would be grow more in comparison to the beast grown in chicken broth. Water would provide the best growing condition. Such an experiment could be an interesting health lesson for students (i.e. what does salt and fat do to the grow beast's growth?), especially if my hypothesis is correct.

    Yellow Grow Beast in Chicken BrothMy yellow grow beast, Yellowtail, sat in a cup of tepid chicken broth for four days. He did not grow nearly as much as my Blueceratops in water, which I predict is because of the high sodium and fat content of the chicken broth. Again, I measured my grow beast from his tail to the tip of his nose each time I measured him. All measurements are in centimeters, and I used the same tape measurer each time I took Yellowtail out of the chicken broth. At 0 hours, he started out at exactly 5 centimeters; 83 hours later, he reached 7.5 centimeters, growing 150% of its original size. Interestingly, he started to float on the morning of the third day. The following scatter plot visualizes his growth.
    {Picture_5.png}{Picture_7.png}
    As you can see from the graph, most of Yellowtail's growth occurred in the initial 48 hours. Altogether, he increased his size by only 2.5 centimeters. Dissimilarly, Blueceratops, grown in water, grew 7.3 centimeters.
    A chart documenting Yellowtail's progress is below.
