Use this document to report your findings from the LeafLab Exploration Experiment. The lab report consists of three sections: Data, Exploration, and Lab Summary.
Data: copy any data, graphs, charts, or notes that you have saved in your LeafLab online notebook into this section.
Exploration: Answer the questions. The questions in the Exploration section are the same questions in your LeafLab instructions.
Lab Summary: Write a 100- to 200-word summary.
Data
To copy your data from your online notebook into this section, click on Export Graph and then copy and paste your data into this section. You must disable your pop-up blocker before exporting. Identify each set of data with a title.
Exploration
Answer the following questions in fewer than 100 words:
What is the relationship between an increase in light intensity and photosynthetic rate in leaves from a corn plant? How does this relationship compare with what you observed for tomato plants?
They both seem to be steady lines however in the corn leaf, it is a higher photosynthetic rate than in the tomato.
Photosynthetic saturation is the maximum rate of photosynthesis. What value of light intensity produced photosynthetic saturation in corn leaves?
You have to plot the O2 evolution and time at the different light levels. So a higher light level made a higher photosynthetic saturation.
Lab Summary
Address the following points in a 100-to 200-word summary:
Summarize the general principles and purpose of the lab.
Explain how this lab helped you better understand the topics and concepts addressed this week.
Describe what you found challenging about this lab.
Describe what you found interesting about this lab.
The purpose of this lab is to see how different
