Abstract The purpose is to determine if exposure to electromagnetic radiation can affect the growth and health of a plant. These results will show the negative effect that constant exposure to electromagnetic radiation (EMR) can have on a living thing and its rate of growth. The results might suggest that if exposure to EMR can harm a living thing such as a plant, then perhaps it could also harm a humans health.
