Abstract
The objective of this investigation was to determine the effect of one specific environmental condition on the rate of transpiration in plants. This particular investigation looked at the number of leaves in a plant and how it would affect the rate of transpiration in plants. The aim of this investigation was to find out if the larger the number of leaves a plant had, the higher the rate of transpiration would be.
The results from this investigation showed increased transpiration in the plants with the greater number of leaves compared to the ones with less leaves.
To determine the validity of …show more content…
Highlighted: Like in experiment one, plant 2(2 leaves) transpires more water than plant 3(4 leaves) does. Reason will be explained in discussion.
Note: Experiment two had the exact same materials and variables as in experiment one.
Differences: change in plant, 200mL starting point.
The reason for having a second experiment will be discussed in the
