be defined as light energy being converted into chemical energy‚ which is a very important process for plants and other organisms. Light can be described in terms of light quantity and light quality. Both of these have an affect on photosynthesis. The more light a plant absorbs the more the plant is able to photosynthesize. This light is absorbed though pigments which have specific interactions with certain light waves (colors). The goal of my first experiment was to test the effect that which different

Plant Growth; Varying Light Exposures Intro and Hypothesis: The problem that is going to be answered is: will plant seeds grow at differently if they are covered by different materials while exposing them to the same amount of light? Also‚ which material will allow the plants to grow the most‚ tin foil‚ saran wrap‚ paper or no covering? Before the lab took place‚ it was hypothesized that the less light a plant receives‚ the less it will grow and the more light it receives‚ the more it will grow

EFFECTS OF WATER SOLUTIONS IN PLANT GROWTH CHAPTER I Introduction Plants are affected by different substances that come into contact with them. These effects may be good or bad. There are certain substances such as fertilizers‚ which have a positive effect on the growth of certain plants‚ more specifically pechay (Brassica rapa variety chinensis). Pechay is commonly used in cooking in Filipino households. It requires little attention as it is a very hardy plant. It is rich in vitamins A‚

BIOLOGY PRACTICAL ASSIGNMENT NAME OF INVESTIGATION: Effect of Eutrophication on Plant Growth RESEARCH QUESTION: How does the process of Eutrophication affect the growth of Duckweed? HYPOTHESIS: In this experiment‚ we are basically testing the use of different fertilizers on the growth of Duckweeds. Plants need fertilizers for their growth and to increase the yield of crops. But‚ at the same time‚ it depends on which Fertilizer being used and in how much proportion. Does it have sufficient nutrients

Effect of Sugar on Bean Plant Growth Abstract The objective: My project was to determine if bean plants grew stronger and healthier by the addition of the right amount of sugar to their watering. I believe that plants that receive 50 grams of sugar per liter of water would help bean plants grow to be stronger‚ healthier and larger because they would get energy from the sugar. Methods/Materials 36 bean plants were grown in potting soil. The same amount of soil was used in each pot and it had no added

Effect of Clay in Soil on Plant Growth INTRODUCTION: In this experiment‚ the relationship between the amount of clay in the soil and plant growth was measured over a two week time period. The manipulated variable in the experiment was the amount of clay in the soil‚ specifically one hundred and twenty grams of clay mixed with eighty grams of soil‚ and the responding variable was the plant growth. Although clay in soil can be beneficial for plant growth in the sense that is provides good moisture

The Effects Different Types of Water Have on Plant Growth Abstract This experiment examines the rate of plant growth when watered with different solutions. Throughout the course of a nine week period‚ five lima bean seeds were watered with five different solutions to see which will most enhance the growth of plants. The five solutions consisted of distilled‚ filtered

The Effect of Vitamin C on Plant Growth Aim: To determine the effect of salt/ sugar/ caffeine/ vitamin C on seed germination. Hypothesis: The plant will grow slowly or die due to the Vitamin C. Equipment: * 2 cups * 2 measuring cups * Water * Vitamin C/ orange Juice * Soil * 4 seed (2 for each cup) * A ruler Method: 1. Pour ¾ of soil into each cup 2. Plant 2 seeds into each cup. Put it about half way down the soil 3. Mix 1mL of orange juice with 5mL

1. Question: How is the growth rate of bean plants affected by different types of water? 2. Introduction: We are going to be exploring the affect that different type of water have on the growth rate of bean plants. We will be experimenting with two different types of bean plants and testing three different types of water. PH is basically the negative log of hydrogen ion activity used to measure the acidity or basicity. The pH level ranges on a scale from one to fourteen‚ one being most
