Put simply‚ photosynthesis is the process of converting light energy into chemical energy and storing it in the bonds of sugar. Photosynthesis comes from the Greek language and literally means “Light Composition” or “Putting Together Light.” Photosynthesis generally takes place in plants‚ however it also takes place in algae and many species of bacteria. In photosynthesis‚ light energy is converted to chemical energy and the chemical energy is then stored in the form of glucose‚ or sugar. Carbon

CHEMISTRY LAB REPORTS How to Write a Lab Report Lab Reports gives the explanation of the experiment done Lab reports are an essential part of all laboratory courses and usually a significant part of your grade. If your instructor gives you an outline for how to write a lab report‚ use that. Here ’s a format for a lab report you can use if you aren ’t sure what to write or need an explanation of what to include in the different parts of the report. A lab report is how you explain what you did

high carcinogen uptake as well as other chemical resulting in a higher chance of developing cancer and lower cilia beat rates. This experiment took two cigarettes; one with a paper filter‚ and the other with charcoal filter. By taking mollusk gills and placing them in contaminated water from the two different smokes it could be seen that the cilia on the gills had a slower beat rate then cilia that were not in the contaminated water. This supported the hypothesis that smoking will inhibit the ciliary

Factors Limiting Photosynthesis The rate of photosynthesis increases with increasing light intensity. But too much light intensity can slow down the rate of photosynthesis because the light damages chloroplasts in the leaf. The higher the temperature the greater the rate of photosynthesis as photosynthesis is a chemical reaction and chemical reactions increase with temperature. But at temperatures above 40 C the rate slows down because the enzymes involved are destroyed

I. Introduction: The purpose of this lab report is to differentiate between of Newton’s Third Law and Newton’s Second Law. Newton’s Third Law states that all forces come in pairs and that the two forces in a pair act on different objects and are equal in strength and opposite in direction. Newton’s Second Law states that the acceleration of an object is proportional to the net force and inversely proportional to the mass of the object being accelerated. Using calculation equations for acceleration

these tubes was tested. The solutions in the opaque tubes were placed on a slide with a drop of blood and observed under a microscope and compared to a control slide with just a drop of blood. Sketches of the observations were made and analyzed. A leaf of Elodea was placed on a slide along with solution X‚ observed‚ and drawn. Solution Y was then drawn through the slide and the previous method was repeated. The same was done with solution Z. The results were gathered and
