Title:
Investigation of the effects of light intensity on Egeria Densa’s leaves photosynthesis in the observation on leaf
Background information:
When sun lights are taken by pigments in the leaf which is chlorophyll a and b, electrons in photosystems are pushing up to high energy level. The leaves producing ATP, to reduce NADP to NADPH, and integrate CO2 to non-chemical molecular during process called carbon fixation. When Egeria Densa leaves are kept in water and through the process of the light dependent reaction, that oxygen is gave and resolved to the inner part of the leaf that causes them to rising up. Also cellular

3. Put one branch of Egeria Densa in the test tube a and b.
Test tube c is without Egeria Densa plant.
Important: All branches of Egeria Densa should prepare from same Egeria Densa plant.
4. Put the car by human respiration. What we exhausting is carbon dioxide. So in the test tubes a, b, c put carbon dioxide. The length of exhausting carbon dioxide should be 15 seconds that measured by stopwatch.
5. Put a rubber caps on the top of test tubes to seal inside. Important: Quickly as possible to seal up all test tubes as same time as finished putting carbon dioxide. At this time the color of solution changes into green, which is neutural.
6. Check the room temperature and if it is too cold or too hot, use air condition to adjust around 20 to 25℃.
7. Put test tubes a and c under the electric heater.
8. Covering test tube b with aluminum foil to avoid from sunlight or electric heater.
9. Keep this condition for 3
Coursework Equipment List • Boiling tubes (8) I will use these because this is where I will mix both the sodium carbonate and the strontium nitrate in order to form the precipitate. I need 8 because I am going to add 8 different amounts of strontium nitrate (1-8cm³) to the 8cm³of sodium carbonate. • Measuring cylinder (1) I will use this to measure the 8cm³ of sodium carbonate and the varying amounts of strontium nitrate to put into the test tubes. • Sodium Carbonate (enough to fill 8 boiling tubes with 8cm³/64cm³)
Next, the test tubes were carefully cleaned with soap and water. Then five millilitres of sample “A” was placed in the test tube labeled “A”. This was then repeated with the next three samples. Then a few drops of each sample were placed on glucose/ketone paper. Each piece of glucose/ketone paper (with the sample on top) was compared to the label on the glucose paper bottle.
The SIM tube was first inspected for black precipitate indicating sulfur reduction and cloudiness around stab line for motility. Kovacs reagent was added in the tube a red color change in the alcohol layer. Red which also indicated is was positive for indole production. Methyl Red is used to determine if an organism is capable of performing a mixed acid fermentation. Methyl Red were added to MR test tube.
Cell Respiration Lab Research Question What is the optimal temperature for germinating pea-seeds where the rate of respiration is the greatest? Background Information Cell Respiration refers to the biochemical process conducted by the cells of an organism that combines glucose and oxygen to produce energy in the form of ATP, along with two by-products, water and carbon dioxide. The equation representing this chemical reaction is shown below. C6H12O6 + 6 O2 6 CO2 + 6 H2O
The leaves then make ATP, which reduces NADP to NADPH, and add CO2 into organic molecules. When the leaves go through the process of a light-dependent reaction by being placed in water, oxygen is created through photosynthesis and is released into the interior of the leaf. This causes the leaf to rise. However, since cellular respiration is happening at the same time, the oxygen is also being used up. This means that the leaves must
Because carbon dioxide is absorbed by the plant during photosynthesis less carbon dioxide present in the chamber is a sign that photosynthesis is working. The four lights used for this experiment range across the light spectrum on both sides in order to test a wider variety of wavelengths. All lights will be placed directly on the spinach leaf at the same distance so as not to give any spinach leaf a different light intensity, which could affect the data. This experiment will be able to show which light, ranging across the light spectrum, will allow the Spinach to perform photosynthesis more efficiently.
A. Were the seeds in the “N” tube undergoing both photosynthesis and respiration, only photosynthesis, or only respiration? Use your results in Data Table 2 to support your answer. The seeds in test tube "N" underwent respiration. Respiration is always happening.
The objective of this study was to test the phototactic response of Daphnia when exposed to red (>600 nm) and white light. A 30 x 2 cm clear acrylic mesocosms with a 10 cm counting area was filled with distilled water and 10 Daphnia. We counted the number of Daphnia that traveled to the lit counting area after 10 minutes. There were twice as many Daphnia in the lit counting area for the control (white light) compared to the experimental group (red light). The results showed that red light had a negative effect on the phototaxis of Daphnia.
photosynthesis and cellular respiration are extremely important in the cycle of energy to sustain life simply because nutrients would not metabolize in a productive manner. Both have numerous stages in which the process of energy occurs, and relationships with organelles located in the eukaryotic cell. Photosynthesis is a process by which green plant and other organism manufacture their food using sunlight to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water while cellular respiration is the oxidation of organic compounds that occurs within cells, producing energy for cellular processes. Photosynthesis occurs within organelles called chloroplasts. These organelles can absorb light, and are located inside of leaves.
7) Test tube four contains 7 mL of distilled water and 3 mL of CoCl2. The fifth had 7 mL of distilled water and 3 mL of CoCl2. 8) Test tube five contains 6 mL of distilled water and 4 mL of CoCl2. 9) Test tube six contains 5 mL of distilled water and 5 mL of CoCl2. 10) After all of the test tubes are prepared, they will be put into cuvettes.
Do the same for the other test tubes. Let the test tubes not be disturbed for about 3- 4 mins. Then add the Amylase solution to the Starch solution and start the stopwatch (immediately). After every 1 min take one drop from the test tubes and place then in the test plate that were
Also, although this likely served no contribution in disheveling the results, using a stirrer of the same material to ensure the separate testing of each substance will be as uniform as
Introduction: The invention of the automobile has brought more positive and negative effects than any other invention throughout transportation history. Transportations have changed the way people live all over the world. Automobile companies have created numerous jobs all around the globe. Automobiles have affected all aspects of society such as family life, the economy, and even the environment.
Background Information: In this experiment I will be investigating the impact of light intensity on the rate of water uptake, due to transpiration, by attaching a shoot from a leafy plant in the capillary tube of a potometer, and then measuring how long it takes for a bubble to move a set distance. The faster the bubble moves, the greater the rate of transpiration. I will be placing one plant in an environment where it is exposed to high-light intensities, and another plant in an environment where it is exposed to low-light intensities. Transpiration is the process of the transport of water and nutrients up the the plant from the roots to the leaves.
Part I Assembly of respirometers: 1. A total of 4 respirometers were set up. The respirometers are numbered 1, 2, 3 and 4. 2. Germinating seeds are placed in Respirometer 1, fresh seeds and beads are in Respirometer 2, dry seeds and beads in respirometer 3 and beads alone are placed in Respirometer 4.
