Photosynthesis in C3 plants and their adaptations to the Mediterranean Climate Abstract. Photosynthesis is the process that plants use to harness the energy of the sun through light and use it to create sugars. Photophosphorylation is the first step of photosynthesis and occurs in the chloroplast. Light is captured by light harvesting complexes. The light excites electrons which excite surronding electrons through resonance induction and excite special pairs of electrons. These electrons help pump

Based off the results from this lab the student was able to determine and have an overall better understanding of the variables that affect the rate of photosynthesis in a plant. The first variable the student tested in the lab was 30cm of light with CO2 present. The student started this trial with all 10-leaf disks and timed how many leaf disks came up every minute for 15 minutes. One minute into the trial and the student recorded that no leaf disks had yet to rise to the top of the solution. At

Introduction: Capture and recapture is a method to observe animals‚ give information on survival‚ recruitment‚ and size of the population. You capture the animals and mark them and release them. Mark and release repeatedly. Objective: The purpose of this experiment was to analyze the amount of marked beans of the beans we would catch. Hypothesis: If the number of marked beans represents the number of the mocking jays in the forest and the unmarked beans are the food supply then the mocking jays population

Objective: One objective was to figure out if the burnt Mg ashes weigh more than the product which is Magnesium Metal. Another objective was determining the formula of the compound that results when Magnesium and Oxygen react. Theory: The purpose of this lab was to confirm the chemical formula of magnesium oxide by comparing the masses of pure magnesium solid prior to any reaction and magnesium oxide solid after a reaction between all of the magnesium and oxygen from the air when heated from a Bunsen burner

IB Biology HL Y1 15 January 2009 The Effect of Humidity on Transpiration in Plants Problem/Aim How does placing a plant in a more humid location for 50 minutes affect its rate of transpiration? Introduction Transpiration is the loss of water from a plant‚ mainly through the stomata of leaves. Darkness‚ internal water deficit‚ and extremes of temperature tend to close stomata and decrease transpiration; illumination‚ ample water supply‚ and optimum temperature cause stomata to open and increase

tablets. In the experiment they first tested how long an Alka-Seltzer tablet would dissolve in cold water ( 9 degrees) then repeated it two more times in order to calculate a mean. Then using a hot plate to heat the water‚ they tested another tablet in the hot water (51 degrees) to see how long it would take to dissolve and again did it two more times to calculate a mean. Finally they tested another tablet in water left on the hot plate for thirty-seconds (81 degrees)‚ preformed the experiment for two more

Purpose: We are doing this experiment to find the best ratio of potassium nitrate to powdered sugar for a model rocket motor that will create the most thrust. We are also testing if adding fins will affect the flight distance of the rocket. Hypothesis: The best ratio for potassium nitrate to powdered sugar is 1 to 3 because Grant Thompson‚ who has experimented with the best ratio of powdered sugar to potassium nitrate‚ has stated that “The 1 to 3 ratio is best for creating the most amount of thrust
