Lima Bean Lab Report
The purpose of this lab was to explore the growth and developmental differences in different liquids when exposed to a lima bean over the course of 10 days. by looking at the results it is evidence that the pond water is the greatest factor of liquids compared to milk and sprite. My hypothesis of pond water being the best liquid to grow a lima bean plant was correct the lima bean had grown to 13 centimeters but while doing this experiment I was surprised with the results of milk hoping it to be better and hoping for more growth due to its nutrient content before completing this lab I had the impression that milk would be the second most growth in the plants due to it protein and nutrient content. But I believe that these results were not

    In the lab with germinated and dry peas along with glass beads, determining the rate of respiration in each different type of seed was the goal. The hypothesis stated that since the germinated peas were still alive, they would contain a higher rate of respiration needed to remain healthy compared to the dried peas and glass beads.…

    In experiment one, involving the rate of respiration of germinated peas when exposed to a variety of different temperatures. From a general standpoint the data collected matched the hypothesis formed, as the temperature increases the rate of respiration will increase as well. This was shown as the average ppm of oxygen was taken from each group. Comparing the data from the class is shows the effect of human error on the results. For example group #4 seemed to have back wards results this may have been due to an improper seal on the oxygen sensor.…

    Lima Bean Lab Report

    Lima beans are edible flat whitish beans and are good to use for any experiment because they represent the human body in that they both go through all of the same processes of growth and development. This lab uses lima beans in order to determine whether they were viable or not. If a bean is viable, it means that it is alive: able to grow and develop. The two ways to find out whether a bean is viable or not, are a tetrazolium test and germination test. Tetrazolium is a chemical that turns red in the presence of hydrogen ions. All living organisms release hydrogen ions every day and therefore, it was possible to see whether the lima beans were viable or not using tetrazolium. This is a result…

    Split Pea Lab Report

    To begin the process of extracting DNA, the double-stranded hereditary material found in all living organisms, from the cells of split peas, a solution was made by blending split peas (100ml), table salt (less than 1ml), and cold water (200ml). The salt helped the DNA strands of molecules to stick together to be easily seen later in the experiment. The split pea cells were separated from each other by the blending process which had made them more susceptible to the next added ingredients. The blended solution was then poured into a strainer and into a measuring cup to alleviate any thick leftover debris from the thin split pea liquid. Then, liquid clothes detergent (30ml) was gently mixed into the thin pea liquid and was left to sit for ten…

    The question being asked here would be “Does a plant grow bigger if watered with milk? Or water?” In my opinion the answer would be milk because milk contains vitamins and calcium that water does not have, but the answer is to be found out later during the project. Well, it is known that for a plant to survive it will definitely need air, soil, water, light, and space to grow, but maybe if we replaced water with milk, plants could grow bigger and quicker, you never know. To test my theory, every morning before school I will water two of my plants with water like I regularly do, and two of my plants with milk which will be something new and will hopefully help my plants grow big and strong. The milk will probably help make the plants stronger. We humans need to have nutrients which we get from the food we eat that helps our bodies grow and stay healthy. Of course, just like us, plants also need the nutrients to grow. Milk actually contains quite a few nutrients, which may or may not help the plant grow bigger. Milk could also act as the plants fertilizer which could improve the plants growth. Those are just some of the ways that milk would help a plant grow.…

    The heating of brown beans, red cabbage, liver sausage and brussel sprouts was done in a water bath of 82.5°C. As can be seen in figure 1 the brussel sprouts heated up the quickest and took 11 minutes to come to a 77.5°C temperature or a 5°C lower temperature than the max. The other three heated up similarly with red cabbage taking 38 minutes, brown beans 42 minutes and the liver sausage taking the longest with 45 minutes. Water was added to the brussel sprouts and that did have an effect on the heating time.…

    Taro Tuber Lab Report

    Taro corms are highly perishable owing to their high moisture content. Processing removes the water which reduces the bulk and also increases their storage life. The method of processing, ranging from simple boiling to elaborate fermentation, drying and grinding to make flour may vary depending on the varieties of roots and tubers. The taro flour production from fresh tuber soon after harvest serves as an effective procedure against storage loss. Converting fresh edible tubers to flours will avoid losses and ensure supply of the products from tubers throughout the year, which may contribute to the growth of regional food industries and employability of the people.¬…

    Plant growth and development are affected by an overwhelming amount of factors in their 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.…
