AP Bio Block B Photosynthesis Lab 12/6/12 Introduction: Photosynthesis is affected by light intensity‚ water‚ and temperature. Plants grow more abundantly because the weather is warm. Carbon Dioxide given off by animals is consumed by plants that replace the oxygen animals take it. Experimentation will help understanding how plants are vital because of the oxygen they release. If leaf disks in the experiment release oxygen‚ they will undergo photosynthesis and float. If

1. Describe the mechanism by which green fluorescent protein (GFP) is able to emit fluorescent light and why ultraviolet light is required to visualise it. (5 marks) When GFP is hit with UV light‚ the chromophore is hit by a photon. This changes the chromophore from ground state (A) to A*‚ which is a highly excitable state. Due to such a highly excitable state not being able to remain so for very long‚ the A* state chromophore emits a proton‚ lowering its state to I*‚ the energetic I. This I* state

Unlike most coefficients in Physics‚ friction behaves differently depending on whether the object is at rest or at motion.

Purpose Determine the acceleration in a quick sprint. Question What would the participant’s acceleration be if he/she sprints forward in a positive direction? Hypothesis/Prediction When a person sprints forward‚ it means he/she speeds up. Consequently‚ the acceleration should be positive. When the velocity accelerates at a constant rate‚ the acceleration should remain constant. Therefore‚ if the participant is moving toward a positive direction and the speed increases‚ then the acceleration

(Staudt 80). In this lab‚ solubility in water‚ acidity‚ and odors of carboxylic acids will be observed. Also‚ esters will be produce and odors will be detected from the product. Finally‚ saponification will be learned. PROCEDURE: Carboxylic Acids and Their Salts: Characteristics of acetic acid: 2mL of water and 10 drops of glacial acetic acid was placed into a clean‚ dry test tube. Before

Part 1 of the experiment was done by 2 different methods. Method 1 was with a force sensor‚ springs‚ and a weight hanger in which masses of 100 gram increments were added (up to 600 grams).

G. Y. S. Period: 6 09/11/12 Osmosis Lab I. Objective: The purpose of this lab is to put the solutions in chronological order from least to most molarity. If the solutions are hypertonic then‚ the water will go in and the order of the substances will be C‚ D‚ A‚ B‚ E. II. Materials and Methods: See attached page. Results: Table 1.1 III.

potential to damage crops extensively‚ and thus‚ damage society as well through shortage of food or even famine. In addition‚ in countries that depend on the production of agricultural goods like Canada‚ the effects of acid rain can be tremendous. In this lab‚ we have chosen to examine the effects of acidic and basic environments on radish plants (Raphanus sativus)‚ by implementing varying pH levels of buffer solution into the soil. We have allotted a total of four days (Tuesday‚ April 10‚ 2012- Friday April

cellular respiration to produce ATP. This process takes place in chloroplasts‚ which is a plastid that contains chlorophyll and involves two interlinked reactions‚ which are light dependent reactions and light independent reactions. Throughout our lab experiment‚ we focused on the affect access of light has on carbon dioxide during photosynthesis. Carbon dioxide levels decrease as oxygen levels increase and glucose is produced when light dependent reactions occur. Light energy is absorbed by photo

all calculations‚ below is what we concluded. The molarity you had to be careful with because it was moles/liters and our readings were in milliliters so we had to convert first. In conclusion‚ even though the lab procedure is not about moles‚ most of the calculations are and this is one lab where the concept of
