living species needs energy to live. Energy is a product of photosynthesis‚ which is the process that converts energy in sunlight to chemical forms of energy that can be used by biological systems2. Many organisms are not able to use the energy obtained from sunlight directly; however‚ plants are able to use this energy and convert it into chemical energy by converting CO2 (carbon dioxide) and H2O (water) to organic materials3. The energy source for photosynthesis comes from sunlight‚ which allows

Rate of Photosynthesis Aim: To investigate the effects of light intensity on photosynthesis. Background: Photosynthesis is a process that plants undergo to produce glucose. The plant then uses the glucose to produce energy which the plant needs to sustain life. The chemical formula for photosynthesis is: Sunlight 6CO2 +6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2 Chlorophyll The plant requires light‚ carbon dioxide and water to partake in photosynthesis. Photosynthesis

Skeletal muscle fibres can change from high activity‚ in which a high amount of ATP is used to a low level of activity‚ with only a small amount being used. The ATP in the muscle fibres is enough to allow muscle contractions for a few seconds. When muscle contraction continues more ATP is needed. Aerobic glycolysis Oxidation of glucose requires a different enzyme and a coenzyme for each step. Coenzyme A is used at this stage in cellular respiration‚ which is derived from from a B vitamin called pantothenic

Solar Energy: Photosynthesis versus Semiconductor Based Solar Cell Photosynthesis and semiconductor-based solar cells are both used to harness solar energy from the sun – photosynthesis for plants and semiconductor based solar cells for human beings. Photosynthesis consists of light reactions and dark reactions. It is a process in which carbon dioxide (CO2)‚ water (H2O) and light energy are utilized to synthesize an energy-rich carbohydrate like glucose (C6H12O6) and to produce oxygen (O2) as

RATE OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS The Factor of Carbon Dioxide I. Introduction In this lab‚ the rate of photosynthesis will be measured by manipulating a variable that is needed for the process of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process by which plants use light energy‚ carbon dioxide‚ and water to produce oxygen and glucose. This release of products provides the necessary nutrients for all forms of life. In water‚ leaves‚ usually float in water due to the gases such as carbon dioxide and oxygen that
