Research question : How does the different light intensity affect the rate of photosynthesis in plants? Objective : To investigate the relationship between different light intensity (by having the source of light at different distance to the plant discs which is at; 10cm‚ 15cm‚ 20cm‚ 25cm‚ 30cm‚ and 35cm ) and rate of photosynthesis of plant. Introduction : Photosynthesis is the process where light energy is absorbed by green plants to convert the raw materials (carbon dioxide and water) into

The effect of different coloured lights on the rate of Photosynthesis Objective: To find out which colour of light provides the best consequences for the production of oxygen/ the rate of photosynthesis Background: In photosynthesis‚ there are two main parts‚ including light dependent and light-independent reactions. Plants use the energy from light for producing sugar‚ which is being converted into ATP by cellular respiration. They also are the only organisms that produce oxygen along with glucose

Question/Purpose: The Question or Purpose of our lab is to answer the question “How is the germination of a seed affected by sunlight?” Experimental Hypothesis: We believe these results will occur. 1. The seeds that are water deprived (1 mL of H2O a day) will not grow very well due to a lack of water which is important in photosynthesis and also lacks nutrients. The seeds may also die off due to a lack of water. 2. The seeds that are have a proper amount of water (10 mL of

The Effect of Light Intensity The effect of different light wavelengths was tested in the following experiment. The rate of photosynthesis can be affected depending on the light treatment it receives. With the aid of DPIP acting as NADPH in photosynthesis‚ it was possible to observe the reaction as it took place. Samples were created with dark‚ 24 cm‚ 30 cm‚ and 49 cm light treatments. The absorbance was measured in five-minute intervals for each sample and recorded in an appropriate table

Abstract For this lab the rate of photosynthesis was analyzed upon plant leaves. A sample of a light exposed and a not-light exposed leave were used to clearly identify the role of sunlight in the process of producing and storing energy. Aim We are trying to find proof‚ to demonstrate the necessity of light and chlorophyll in the process of photosynthesis. Background Photosynthesis occurs in organisms which contain chlorophyll. It’s a process that involves the chloroplasts to synthesize glucose

Investigation 5: Photosynthesis Problem: If the leaf disks are treated in a way you know increases the net rate of photosynthesis‚ should they start to float faster or slower? Why? Hypothesis: If the leaf disks were bathed in a red light source‚ then the rate of photosynthesis would increase than leaf disks that are bathed in a regular light source because chlorophyll absorbs red pigment and reflects green pigments. Therefore‚ shining a red light source onto the leaf disks would cause them

Biology (D) Ms. Wainman The relationship between Photosynthesis and cellular respiration Introduction: Photosynthesis is the process which used by plants to capture light energy and use it to do chemical reactions that change carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and energy (ATP)‚ carbohydrates just like sugar. Cellular respiration is the process that releases energy by breaking down glucose and other food with oxygen. Plants cells do photosynthesis and cellular respiration both ‚but animal cells

The light reactions of photosynthesis contain two photosystems‚ two electron transport chains‚ and ATP synthase. These parts are embedded in the thylakoid membranes of a chloroplast. The photosystems contain a collection of chlorophyll molecules. Chlorophyll‚ which is the green pigment of leaves‚ absorbs light energy that excites electrons to a higher energy level. Energized electrons from photosystem I are passed down an electron transport chain and added to NADP+ to form NADPH. Electrons from photosystem

GLENDA MARIE GARCIA POLARIZED LIGHT LAB REPORT EXPERIMENT # 5 June 27‚ 2014 PHYS 1417 ABSTRACT Ordinary light such as that from a light bulb is a form of wave motion that consists of electrical and magnetic fields that vibrate at right angles to the direction of travel of a light beam. Light waves that vibrate in a single plane are called polarized light waves. Such waves can be produced by passing light through polarizing filters. The experiment conducted was composed of crossed

water on the rate of photosynthesis. Aim: The aim is to investigate how increasing carbonate in water can affect the rate of photosynthesis. Introduction: The rate of photosynthesis can be increased or decreased in many different ways. For example‚ by adding substances like alkaline or salt to the water‚ you can increase or decrease the acidity or basics‚ if the water has too much acidity‚ it can often delay the rate of photosynthesis‚ often stopping the rate of photosynthesis in the plant‚ which
