Lab 4: Plant Transpiration Project By Shelby Hyde Lab 030 Date Due: March 12‚ 2013 The Effect of Wind on the Rate of Transpiration Introduction: Transpiration is the process through which water is evaporated from plants. This serves many purposes‚ including thermoregulation and the diffusion of CO2‚ but most importantly creates a water potential difference which causes the mass flow of water and nutrients from the roots to the leaves of the plant. Transpiration is accomplished through structures

Separation and Identification of Plant Pigments by Paper Chromatography Biology 1107L Introduction All living organisms require energy for their chemical processes. The ultimate source of this energy is the sun. Plants convert light energy into the chemical energy of sugars. During photosynthesis pigments are used to capture light energy. Pigments of green plants can easily be separated and identified using a technique called paper chromatography. The purpose of this

Chapter 37: Water and sugar transport in plants Water moves from areas of high water potential to areas of low water potential. Water’s potential energy in plants is a combination of (1) it’s tendency to move in response to differences in solute concentration and (2) the pressure exerted on it Plants do not expend energy to replace water that is lost to transpiration when stomata are open and photosynthesis is occurring. Instead‚ water moves from soil and roots to leaves long a water potential

The symbolism of the plant in A Raisin in the Sun One might ask how the scientific facts of the functional purpose of a plant would connect to a literary piece‚ especially the well-known play‚ A Raisin in the Sun‚ written by Lorraine Hansberry. The plant in the text symbolizes the foundation for the family‚ honest hope‚ and Mama’s dreams. Symbolism is not a definition of an item‚ but represents something specific other than itself. Much like Mama’s plant‚ it represents many meaningful ideas with

for plants‚ and one small section of the electromagnetic radiation spectrum‚ is called the Photosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR)‚ provides the energy to drive the light reactions of photosynthesis. Such radiation damages biological tissues by detaching electrons from the atoms that make up organic molecules. The results include radiation poisoning‚ cancer‚ and elevated mutation rates. Scientists use ionizing radiation to increase gene mutation rates in experimental organisms such as plants. The
