Sprouting Radishes A biology experiment was designed to determine whether sprouting radish seeds inhibit the germination of lettuce seeds.18 Three 10-centimeter petri dishes were used. The first contained 26 lettuce seeds, the second contained 26 radish seeds, and the third contained 13 lettuce seeds and 13 radish seeds.

a. Assume that the experimenter had a package of 50 radish seeds and another of 50 lettuce seeds. Devise a plan for randomly assigning the radish and lettuce seeds to the three treatment groups.

b. What assumptions must the experimenter make about the packages of 50 seeds in order to assure randomness in the experiment?
