In many ways, the Rutherford model of the atom is the classic model of the atom, even though it's no longer considered an accurate representation. Rutherford's model shows that an atom is mostly empty space, with electrons orbiting a fixed, positively charged nucleus in set, predictable paths.

This model of an atom was developed by Ernest Rutherford, a New Zealand native working at the University of Manchester in England in the early 1900s. Rutherford spent most of his academic career researching aspects of radioactivity and, in 1908, won the Nobel Prize for his discoveries related to radioactivity. It was after this that Rutherford began developing his model of the atom.

The two kinds of data the student is most likely to collect are qualitative and quantitative data. This means that he will gather data based on his senses (qualitative). This could refer to things like the size of the tomatoes. The student also could gather numerical data (Quantitative). This is referring to how many tomatoes were bigger because of the increase sunlight exposure. This student could present this information in pieces like graphs and charts to show the quantitative, and models and pictures to how the qualitative data.
