Scientists created synthetic soils to test how much nitrogen they could remove from stormwater, with the hopes of using them to help make the runoff cleaner. They compared the synthetic soils against the performance of natural soils. Performance was measured in milligrams of nitrogen removed per liter of soil tested. The data collected is shown in the table. SiteNatural soil (mg/L )Synthetic soil (mg/L ) 113.32194.41 21.05113.64 31.16143.33 40.3945.45 What conclusion can be made from this experiment?
Responses Both soil types have similar performance when it comes to cleaning runoff. Both soil types have similar performance when it comes to cleaning runoff. Natural soils work just as well as synthetic soils to remove nitrogen. Natural soils work just as well as synthetic soils to remove nitrogen. Synthetic soils are much better at cleaning stormwater runoff. Synthetic soils are much better at cleaning stormwater runoff. Both soils should be used in cities to help reduce the nitrogen contaminants in stormwater. Both soils should be used in cities to help reduce the nitrogen contaminants in stormwater.
