Answer: The carrots top is the shortest plant.

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

  • Corn stalk height: 0.85 m
  • Tomato plant height: 0.850 m
  • Carrot top height: 0.085 m

So, by comparing the different heights we can state that the carrot top is the shortest.

Because

0.085<0.85 and 0.085<0.85

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
