this relationship affects the loss of water. We used oasis blocks‚ an absorbant material used by florists as a substitute for a cactus‚ that would soak up the water‚ and thus ideally show the percentage water loss by weighing the before and after evaporation weights. Independent Variable The independent variable is the total surface area for each size of the blocks and I think this will affect the dependent variable as larger blocks‚ I hypothesize‚ will have less water loss by evaporation as

The difference (n − k) represents the parity bits. A systematic linear block will have a [k × n] generator matrix [G] of the form G=[P IK ] Then the code is given
