Students from two Connections Academy schools team up to complete a portfolio investigating factors that affect plant growth. Justice in Indiana and Hassan in California chose a 1 foot square patch of grass that would not be mowed to observe. Every week they measured the height of the grass in three different places. They made their observations in October and November and then came together to interpret the data. They found that the height of the grass in California was three times as tall as the grass in Indiana. Justice and Hassan worked together to brainstorm what factors could affect the height of the grass.
Determine which factors are environmental and which are hereditary. Select "Environment" or "Hereditary" for each factor.

Are you sure
I apologize for the confusion. Let me correct that:
Environment:
- The grass in California received more sunlight than the grass in Indiana.
- The grass in Indiana was fed with decomposing leaves.
Heredity:
- The grass in California had different genes from the grass in Indiana.
