For this question, im a little confused as to what the effects would be on the other nutrients. For example, I think the sugar might reduce but I still think I'll need an explanation for the answer as I'm confused as to how it would effect the other macromolecules

A negative control is a group in an experiment that does not receive any type of treatment and, therefore, should not show any change during the experiment.

Here, we are told that the negative control group has been treated with table sugar. I'm assuming this question is part of a larger set of questions. What was being grown in the experiment group to begin with?

there wasn't a sample or samples to being with, it's a part of a larger set of questions. So technically, it doesn't show changes during the experiment on any of the four macromolecules?

Then it depends on the nutrient tests performed, which I have no knowledge of. Did any of the tests deal with sugars? If so, that would likely show a change in the negative control group.
