Respiration of Germinating Peas Abstract Aerobic respiration is an enzyme mediated process during which glucose is used to make ATP to fuel the cells energy needs. Germination is one of such processes that make use of aerobic respiration and because certain factors can affect aerobic respiration‚ it would also affect germination. In this experiment‚ we examined the effects of boiling on the rate of aerobic respiration of germinating peas. Unboiled germinating peas were found to have a more rapid

card board box with a hole on one side‚ and water. Procedure of the experiment: Two pots are prepared by filling them with soil‚ and are labelled as A and B. A few (2-3) mustard seeds are sown in each of them. The conditions necessary for germination of seeds such as oxygen‚ moisture (water)‚ and optimum temperature are provided in order to allow them to germinate and grow in both the pots A and B for a period of three days. Thus‚ the amount of moisture (water)‚ availability of oxygen‚ temperature

Plants have two different ways to reproduce. The first one is vegetative reproduction. With this type all the plants that have the same parent have the same genetic make-up. This also lets plants pass adaptations on that they have abtained over the years. Plants with good genetic make-up usually spread quickly and take over an area. An example of this would be the dandelion. These plants can sprout from any part of the plant. An example of this is the potato‚ farmers will pick the potatoes and cut

20% or less of the cost of planting tubestock)‚ and requires minimal labour. * Existing farm equipment can be used. Alternatively‚ several organisations and landcare groups have direct seeding machines for hire. * Higher plant density after germination provides better shelter to new seedlings and reduces weed competition. It also allows natural selection to sort out the stronger from the weaker plants without creating gaps to be replanted. * Plants are able to “self select” suitable establishment

Paraserianthes falcataria - Southeast Asia’s Growth Champion By whatever common or scientific names it is known‚ Paraserianthes falcataria (L.) Nielsen is a valuable multipurpose tree for the humid tropics. One of the fastest growing of all tree species‚ it is used for pulp and other wood products‚ fuelwood‚ ornamental plantings and shade for coffee‚ tea and cattle. Potential uses for which it is being tested include alley farming and intercropping in forest plantations. BOTANY: "Falcataria"

This experiment will test whether or not radiation will help or hurt grass seed growth. This experiment will also test whether or not radiation will help or hurt grass seed germination. If the experiment goes according to plan‚ the most reasonable hypothesis based on the research is that the radiation will negatively affect both the plant growth and

Biology Seedling Report Introduction: “Biotic components are the living things that shape an ecosystem. A biotic factor is any living component that affects another organism‚ including animals that consume the organism in question and the living food that the organism consumes” (Biotic components‚ 2013). Each biotic factor needs energy to do work and food for proper growth. The aim of our experiment that will be conducted in class is to see whether or not competition between plants for water and

environment but all these factors can be manipulated and given the perfect conditions the plant can grow to reach its peak size and potential. Rate of plant growth intrigued my fellow group members and I so it was decided that growth in mm as well as germination of the seed itself would be studied. With research being conducted into what we could change about the plants environment to change the rate of growth it was found that the simplest thing to manipulate would be the water the plant absorbed.

Background: The IRP project I am doing is based off the subject of seed germination. The seeds I will be planting are cherry belle radish seeds‚ freshly bought. Instead of planting the seeds in soil like it is normally done‚ the plant seeds will be placed on paper towels to grow for better observation of the roots‚ and for a quicker

Jackfruit Jackfruit‚ Artocarpus Heterophyllus‚ is said to originate from the Western Ghats although no one is definite on this. It grows in rain forests and along low-elevations through out India‚ Burma‚ Ceylon‚ Southern China‚ Malaya‚ some small parts of Australia and the East Indies. It was introduced into Florida in approximately 1887 but few trees now remain. The jackfruit comes from a very large and bushy tree‚ which is also used for shade‚ and can range from 30-70 tall with glossy‚ green
