Two fertilizers are applied to randomly selected potato plants. After several weeks, the potatoes are weighed. The weights in kilograms are as follows. Which fertilizer is generally more effective?

Fertilizer A: 27, 20, 16, 18, 22, 19, 23, 21, 17, 19
Fertilizer B: 28, 19, 18, 21, 24, 20, 25, 27, 29, 21 (1 point)
• Fertilizer B is generally more effective, because the mean and median weights of the potatoes that were treated with it are higher.
Fertilizer A is generally more effective, because the mean and median weights of the potatoes treated with it are higher.
Fertilizers A and B are both ineffective, because there is no difference in the ranges of the weights of the
• Fertilizers A and B are equally effective, because the ranges of the weights of the potatoes are the same.

Fertilizer B is generally more effective, because the mean weight of the potatoes treated with it is higher (23.2kg) compared to Fertilizer A (20.2kg). Additionally, the median weight of the potatoes treated with Fertilizer B is also higher (21kg) compared to Fertilizer A (19kg). Therefore, based on the data provided, Fertilizer B is generally more effective for potato growth.
