25.A plant grows to a height of 8 cm in 1 week. Fatima says, “Plant height and number of weeks are directly proportional. The height of this plant in 2 years will be about 832cm, because there are 104 weeks in 2 years.” State whether Fatima is likely to be correct and explain your answer.

Assuming the plant continues to grow at that rate of 8 cm per week, then it follows that in 2 years the plant will have grown to: 8 X 104 weeks=832 cm. So, Fatima is likely to be correct.

i mean i would assume the growth changes depending on the season and how much nutrients the plant gets.
