The Effect of Gasoline Fumes on plants Introduction: This science fair project was conducted to study the effect of gasoline fumes on plants. The testing was done by placing plants beside a gasoline-filled container for different periods of time and temperatures. Hypothesis: Gasoline fumes cause plants to die - the longer the exposure to the fumes‚ the quicker the plants will die. Our second hypothesis is that exposure to fumes‚ at higher environmental temperatures‚ will result in quicker
