Measuring the Effect of Density on Growth of Mung Bean (Vigna radiata) Plants Wylliam Wagoner1 1 Population and Community Ecology‚ Butler University‚ Indianapolis‚ Indiana 46208‚ USA ABSTRACT For this experiment‚ we set out to find if density and time had an effect on growth of mung bean plants. We decided to test evidence of growth by measuring plant biomass. We measured the biomass each week for four weeks of plants grown at different densities. We found that density had an overall effect

Sprouts Put 1/3 - 1/2 Cup of seed* into a bowl or Sprouter. Note: Mung Beans are grown in China by farmers - often with little machinery. After harvest they are left to dry on gravel roads - so they are dusty. So: Prep before Soaking‚ by running water through them until the exiting water runs clear. It doesn’t take long - they aren’t very dirty nowadays. Is that not cool?! The dust/dirt you just washed off of your Mungs was part of a Chinese road!!! Add 2-3 times as much cool (70°) water

The mung or moong bean[1] (also known as green gram or golden gram) is the seed of Vigna radiata‚[2][3] native to the Indian subcontinent‚[4] and mainly cultivated in India‚ China‚ The mung bean was domesticated in Mongolia‚ where its progenitor (Vigna radiata subspecies sublobata) occurs wild.[6][7] Archaeological evidence has turned up carbonized mung beans on many sites in India.[8] Areas with early finds include the eastern zone of the Harappan civilization in Punjab and Haryana‚ where finds

I. PROBLEM What is the role of sunlight on the germination of Vigna radiata (Mung bean) seed? II. TITLE The role of sunlight on the germination of Vigna radiata seed. III. RATIONALE The germination of the seed is a physiological event. The light is one of the most important environmental factors for germination of seeds. The seeds of many species do not germinate in the dark. Vigna radiata seed or Mung bean seed as it commonly called will be used for the study since it can be prepared

Effect of Salt Solution on Mung Bean Growth Hypothesis: If the Mung Beans are watered with a higher salt solution‚ then less Mung Beans will sprout. John Murrell 9-18-12 Magnet Biology Introduction This experiment was done to test the effect of salt solution on mung bean growth. Generally when you grow mung beans you soak them in water for eight to twelve hours and then put them in a separate container to sprout. Since this experiment was not monitored every hour‚ and had limited

Mung Bean Growth with Different pH Levels Through this experiment‚ the objective was to find which pH liquid created the best environment for the Mung beans to grow. First‚ the beans were placed into bags with different pH liquids. Then‚ measurements were taken each day to monitor the growth average of the beans. The pH 2 beans average size at the end of the experiment were 0.24 cubic centimeters‚ the pH 7 size average was 0.38 cubic centimeters‚ and the size average of the pH 2 beans was 0.24

Title: Amount of Oxygen‚ Mung Beans (Vigna Radiata) Consume during Cellular Respiration Introduction: Cellular respiration is a catabolic reaction that refers to the process of converting chemical energy of organic molecules into a simplify form so it can be used immediately by organism. Glucose may be oxidized completely if sufficient oxygen is available‚ by the following equation: C6H12O6 + 36 ADP + 36Pi + 6O2(g) 6 H2O + 6 CO2(g) + 38 ATP + heat All organisms‚ including plants and animals

Effects of Allelopathy on Plants Dates experiment was conducted: Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is to design a controlled experiment to see if a plant could survive living in eucalyptus tea. Allelopathy is when a plant gives off a bio-chemical that kills that plants around it‚ such as eucalyptus trees‚ black walnut trees‚ etc. My class went to the a eucalyptus grove and observed the eucalyptus trees. We noticed that there was a small circle around the tree that had nothing growing

Abstract The Seeds of Mung bean‚ wheat‚ and silver beet were tested in environments of differing salinities to note down if high salinity environments were worse for the seeds. It was found that generally lower concentrations were better for germination then higher concentrations. Despite this‚ the hypothesis was not completely supported as in wheat and silver beet the second concentration had a higher rate of germination than the control and in all instances the highest concentration had a higher
