AP Biology Photosynthesis Lab Bethany Boyer Due 11/12/14 Lab Write-Up Questions First Experiment 1) The independent variable in this experiment was the presence of CO2 (carbon dioxide). The dependent variable was the speed at which the leaf disks started to float. 2) In the leaf tissue‚ the bicarbonate and light are combining to carry out photosynthesis. This will cause oxygen to collect in the leaf tissue‚ causing it to rise. 3) If we were to boil the leaf disks‚ the reaction would most likely
