    Lack of magnesium or nitrogen in the soil may lead to yellowing or wrinkling of plant leaves. A testable hypothesis and clear aim are outlined. The method, expected observations, treatment of results, identification of variables, and potential sources of error are described and will be evaluated. The scheme assesses skills in developing an experiment to test whether lack of specific minerals causes visual changes in plants.
