How does light intensity affect the rate of photosynthesis? Poorly Pondweed Questions 1) How does light intensity affect the rate of photosynthesis? 2) How does temperature affect the rate of photosynthesis? sunlight carbon dioxide + water glucose + oxygen chlorophyll sunlight 6CO2 + 6H2O àààààà C6H12O6 + 602 chlorophyll Prediction I predict that the more intense the light‚ the higher the rate of photosynthesis. To photosynthesise‚ plants need light. It provides the energy for the process

In the experiment‚ the effect of light intensity on the rate of photosynthesis will be tested. Photosynthesis is the process in which autotrophic plants create their own food (energy) from sunlight. Photosynthesis involves three ‘ingredients’ or reactants‚ carbon dioxide‚ water‚ and light energy (sunlight). Carbon dioxide and sunlight come in through a leaf’s stomata which are tiny holes‚ and water is absorbed through their roots. When all of these reactants are combined in a plant’s chloroplasts

Osmosis investigation Aim: To investigate how sugar concentration affects the mass or size of a potato and find out the sugar solution. Introduction: Osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a partially permeable membrane form a region of high water concentration to a region of low water concentration until the concentration on both sides is equal. This means that osmosis is like diffusion involving water molecules. Osmosis occurs across a partially permeable membrane‚ with holes

Introduction: High blood pressure or hypertension meaning high pressure (tension) in the arteries. Arteries are vessels that carry blood from the pumping heart to all the tissues and organs of the body. Normal Blood Pressure is below 120/80; blood pressure between 120/80 and 139/89 is consider pre-hypertension‚ and a blood pressure of 140/90 or above is considered high. The systolic blood pressure is the pressure in the arteries as the heart contracts and pumps blood forward into the arteries

experiment was to investigate the effect that a glucose concentration has on the rate of fermentation. This was done by adding a variety of different glucose concentration into a test tube‚ siting in a water bath. The carbon dioxide would be collected in the test tube and therefore would measure the rate of fermentation. The results parsley supported the hypothesis that‚ “If the glucose concentration increases‚ the rate of fermentation increases‚ therefore the more carbon dioxide released”. Background

The high blood pressure double whammy The double whammy for people with hypertension is that the extra adrenalin required by being overweight or obese: constricts our arteries and blood vessels to raise our blood pressure and give us an energy boost ready to defend ourselves or to escape a dangerous situation; and it could also lead to type 2 diabetes! The good news is that losing weight need not be difficult or involve unappetizing diets. Losing weight is a natural way to reduce our high blood

The graph shows that the respiration rate does increase as the yeast concentration rises‚ but levels off and eventually reached its saturation point‚ or decline‚ which occurs at 8.5g. This decline may occur because there are too many yeast molecules in comparison to the glucose‚ which may lead to yeast cells hindering a collision thus lessening the reaction. The respiration rate increases as more yeast is added because it gives more opportunities for molecular collisions and so the amount of successful

Taking Blood Pressure How does someone know if they are healthy or not? Do they check their temperature‚ consistently check their weight‚ or do they calculate their body mass index? These are a few ways to keep track of one’s health. Another important way someone can ensure a healthy lifestyle is to check their blood pressure. The process of checking someone’s blood pressure can be confusing‚ but it can determine whether or not they are at risk for health problems and if they need to keep track

Effect of Exercise on Heart Rate. Aim: The aim of this experiment is to find out how different intensities of exercise effect the heart rate I will measure it in beats per minute using a polar heart rate monitor. Hypothesis: I predict that as I increase the intensity of the exercise I do‚ that my heart rate will increase. This is because as I exercise more intensely I will need more blood to my muscles to supply oxygen and take away carbon dioxide; therefore my heart is going to have to beat

My SRP is determining if the colour of ice affects its melting rate. Ice melts by taking in energy from its surroundings to form heat. This makes the molecules in the ice cube vibrate. As the overall vibration increases‚ the water molecules split from each other turning the ice from a frozen state to a liquid state. Heat can be absorbs in two different ways‚ through direct contact with a hot surface or through radiation of a hot surface nearby. Radiant heat can be contributed by sunlight‚ fires and
