The sentence that most accurately describes the daily growth rate of plants is:
average change in plant height divided by number of days
This reflects the average increase in height that the plants experience on a daily basis. It is essential to track the change in height over time and divide it by the number of days to get the rate of growth per day. The other options do not accurately represent a growth rate because they do not factor in the change over time or use incorrect denominators for calculating a rate.
