Chapter 7 and 8 discuss and give in depth details on photosynthesis and cellular respiration. They are the exact opposites in what they set out to complete in the cells of a leaf. Photosynthesis takes light energy and separates it in the chloroplasts to create glucose. Cellular respiration breaks down glucose to provide energy for the cell. The similarities between them include overlap in some of the enzymes and products and reactants utilized. The differences include the cycles and steps taken to

Photosynthesis (pron.: /foʊtoʊˈsɪnθəsɪs/; from the Greek φώτο- [photo-]‚ "light‚" and σύνθεσις [synthesis]‚ "putting together"‚ "composition") is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert the light energy captured from the sun into chemical energy that can be used to fuel the organism’s activities. Photosynthesis occurs in plants‚ algae‚ and many species of bacteria‚ but not in archaea. Photosynthetic organisms are called photoautotrophs‚ since they can create their own food. In plants

All green parts of a plant have chloroplasts. However‚ the leaves are the major site of photosynthesis for most plants. There are about half a million chloroplasts per square millimeter of leaf surface. The color of a leaf comes from chlorophyll‚ the green pigment in the chloroplasts. Chlorophyll plays an important role in the absorption of light energy during photosynthesis. Chloroplasts are found mainly in mesophyll cells forming the tissues in the interior of the leaf. O2 exits and CO2 enters

on the filter paper. Caution should be used as the root tips are very fragile 5. Transfer one of the garlic root tips to the clean microscope slide. Cut about 2-3 mm from the rounded growing tip. Keep this growing tip and discard the rest. 6. Break up the root tip with the mounted needle (this is called maceration). Add one small drop of toluidine blue and leave to stain for 2 minutes 7. Cover with the cover slip and blot firmly with several layers of filter/ tissue paper and press gently to spread

Photography Write-Up: Separation The camera I use has been rented from the ERC on a regular basis‚ and is a Canon 600D or 700D. The photo’s i’ve captured for this project were shot on the standard lens‚ with a variety of settings. I also often use a mini LED light with a daylight filter in order to create more depth in the shadows in my images‚ I usually place this somewhere away from the camera in order to create angled shadows instead of images being frontlit. To start this project‚ I experimented

Lab 4: Photosynthesis and Chromatography of Spinach Leaves Discussion: The chromatography of the spinach leaves was taken to establish what pigments were present in the chloroplasts of the leaves. The solvent carried and separated the different pigments up the cellulose paper. The solvent moved up the paper because of capillary action because of adhesion of the solvent molecules and the paper. The pigments dissolved in the solvent also were carried up the paper and were separated because

Emily Shiang 6/27/13 POW Write-up In this POW write-up‚ I am trying to prove that there can be only one solution to this problem‚ and demonstrate and corroborate that all solutions work and are credible. What the problem of the week is asking is that the number that you put in the boxes 0-4 is the number of numbers in the whole 5-digit number. For example‚ if you put zero in the “one” box‚ you would be indicating that there is zero ones in the number. Another example is if you put a two in
