To Study the Transpiration Rate of a Plant (Gou Qi) by Using the Bubble Photometer.
Biology 1st Group Lab Report

Objective: - To study the transpiration rate of a plant (Gou Qi) by using the bubble photometer.

Assumption: - The rate of transpiration is equal to the rate of water uptake of the plant(Gou Qi) .

Theory:

|Independent Variable |Dependent Variable |Controlled Variable |
|The environmental conditions: | Rate of water uptake by transpiration of the |Time taken for the movement of the air bubble |
|Normal |plant(Gou Qi) |(5MIN -> 10MIN) |

    Water molecules are present in the air as water vapor, they are never as abundant in the air as they are in the leaf. Thus, the plant loses water as it diffuses into the air through the stomates. This water loss is known as transpiration.…

    Transpiration is the loss of water vapor from land plants into the atmosphere, causing movement of water through the plant from the soil to the atmosphere via roots, shoot and leaves, which occurs mainly through the stomata. Factors which can affect the rate of transpiration are those such as temperature, humidity, wind, and light, and the water in the soil. A plant cannot continue to transpire rapidly if its water loss is not made up by replacement from the soil. When absorption of water by the roots fails to keep up with the rate of transpiration, loss of turgor occurs, and the stomata close. This immediately reduces the rate of transpiration (as well as of photosynthesis). If the loss of turgor extends to the rest of the leaf and stem, the plant wilts. To measure transpiration, you can artificially create the environment for a plant for which you want to transpire. For example, if you have a .1 mL pipette, plastic tubing and a leaf, you have almost all the materials you need to measure the rate of transpiration for that leaf and whatever environmental conditions you impose upon the leaf. One will be examining the amount of water in the tubing which is being used, and from there you can tell how much water has been used.…

    Transpiration Lab Report

    Our class data showed that the transpiration pull was the second highest in humidity and in the dark. This data is incorrect, in this given condition because in plants, transpiration is controlled by water potential. This change in water potential in leaves causes a gradient by which water can be moved upward. When the water potential of the air was increased by the humidifier and plastic covering, less water evaporated from the leaves, decreasing the water potential gradient between the root and stem, in turn decreasing the transpiration pull. These conditions should have shown little or no transpiring.…
