Biology Laboratory Report MEASURING RATE OF WATER UPTAKE BY A PLANT SHOOT USING A POTOMETER Introduction All plants need salts minerals‚ water‚ CO2 and O2. To fulfill their requirements different plants use different ways. Lower plants use diffusion‚ however higher plants use vascular tissue that is located in the middle of the root and in the vascular bundles in the stem. The transpiration is the important process in the plant. The main reason is that transportation

meter (N/m2)‚ or pascals (Pa). 3. Slowly drag the temperature (T) slider back and forth. (Note: In this Gizmo‚ the Kelvin scale is used to measure temperature. On the Kelvin scale‚ 0 degrees is absolute zero‚ the coldest possible temperature. Absolute zero is equal to -273.15 °C or -459.67 °F) A. How does the change in temperature affect the speed of the molecules? __If the temperature is colder the molecules move slower and if the temperature is hotter the molecules move faster.

The purpose of the experiment is to determine the effects of sugar on photosynthesis in Elodea. Sugar water with Elodea‚ water with Elodea‚ and water (control) are used to test for photosynthesis. Five drops of sugar water were added to sugar water with Elodea beaker. The three beakers were left under normal light for photosynthesis to occur. After 60 minutes‚ NaOH solution was added to each beaker to test the volume of CO2. The result shows that both Sugar water with Elodea and water with Elodea

A. ENG237-02: Transients in RC and RL Circuits 0. Introduction The objective of this experiment is to study the DC transient behaviors of RC and RL circuits. This experiment has divided into 6 parts: 1. Charging curve from measured data ( R = 10M Ω and C = 4 mF ) 2. Draw the charging curve by the graphical method 3. Discharging curve from measured data ( R = 5M Ω and C = 4 mF ) 4. Draw the discharging curve by the graphical method 5. Display of the charging and discharging

Effect of Temperature on Content of Vitamin C Introduction A daily intake of Vitamin C is essential for humans. Without it‚ the disease scurvy develops as sailors‚ explorers and people during the long winters in the Northern hemisphere found before the time of Captain Cook. The British Navy started giving sailors lime juice to prevent scurvy on long voyages in 1795. Vitamin C is found in high levels in foods such as oranges‚ limes‚ lemons‚ blackcurrants‚ parsley and capsicums. Vitamin C is water

To investigate the effect of variation in temperature on the permeability of cell membranes using fresh beetroot Aims In this investigation‚ you will subject fresh‚ washed beetroot discs to different temperatures to investigate the effect of temperature on the permeability of the plasma membrane. Overview The beetroot discs will be placed in distilled water at different temperatures. You will compare the intensity of the beetroot pigment that has leaked out from the cells subjectively and possibly

TITLE OF EXPERIMENT 2 : DILUTION 2.1: OBJECTIVES Upon completion of this experiment‚ students should be able to: 1. determine the concentration of coloured solution such as FeCl3 by using dilution and colour differentiating (colorimetric) techniques. 2.2: INTRODUCTION Concentration can be expressed in many different ways such as percentage volume and percentage weight etc. In laboratory‚ normally concentrations were expressed as molarity and normality. Molarity is the

INVESTIGATING THE EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE ON THE RATE OF ENZYME ACTIVITY. To investigate the effect that temperature has on enzyme activity I am going to use the enzyme amylase‚ which is used as a biological catalyst to break down starch‚ which cannot pass through the gut wall due to the size of the molecules‚ into smaller ones. Amylase is a carbohydrase‚ which converts starch to simple sugars in the Salivary Glands. Three features of all enzymes are: They are always proteins. They are specific
