grown by hydroponics cannot grow healthy with out the necessary minerals and nutrients. The three non mineral nutrients for plant growth are carbon‚ hydrogen and oxygen. These nutrients are uncontrollable unless grown in a closed area or with artificial settings. There are thirteen other minerals which can be separated into two group’s micronutrients and macronutrients.

Growth Introduction Photosynthesis is the process of converting light energy to chemical energy and storing it in the bonds of sugar. Plants need water‚ Co2 and light energy to create sugar. Photosynthesis occurs mainly in leaves and in 2 phases: light reaction and dark reaction. The light reactions converts light energy to chemical (Biology.clc.uc.edu‚ 2014). This chemical reaction must take place in the thylakoid membrane. Chlorophyll (the green pigment involved in photosynthesis) and several other

KENNETH PAULO DATE PERFORMED DATE SUBMITTED GROUP NO. 2 MEMBERS: Acosta‚ Ezekiel Binayan‚ Jazmin Calzado‚ Marivic Calundan‚ Kaycee Abstract The purpose of this research paper is to determine and compare the effects of the natural light‚ artificial light‚ and little to no light to growing young plants and know which method grows the healthiest and fastest plants. In this research‚ seeds placed in plastic cups were placed in different areas with different lightings but similar temperature

Autotrophic cells capture free energy through photosynthesis and chemosynthesis. Photosynthesis traps free energy present in sunlight that‚ in turn‚ is used to produce carbohydrates from carbon dioxide. Chemosynthesis captures energy present in inorganic chemicals. Cellular respiration and fermentation harvest free energy from sugars to produce free energy carriers‚ including ATP. The free energy available in sugars drives metabolic pathways in cells. Photosynthesis and respiration are interdependent processes

first ensure that the ecosystem’s foundation is remaining strong‚ a foundation known as photosynthesis. When photosynthesis is functioning as it should‚ in its fullest capacity‚ all organisms benefit from it in some way. Furthermore‚ scientists aim to better understand the photosynthetic process to help enhance the efficiency and quality of life on Earth. By fully understanding the function of photosynthesis‚ some environmental adjustments can then be made to refine the photosynthetic process. In

Unit 4 The Natural Environment and Species Survival A2 compulsory unit Externally assessed 7.1 Unit description Topic 5: On the wild side This topic builds an appreciation that photosynthesis is the primary process that underpins the majority of ecosystems‚ and provides students with an understanding of how ecosystems work. The topic continues by looking at whether climate change will lead to extinction of species or evolution by natural selection‚ and looks at the evidence for global

The Effect of Light Intensity on Photosynthesis and Transpiration Inna V. Raymundo BOTANY I Section V-6L August 29‚ 2012 ¹A scientific paper submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements in Botany I laboratory under Dr. Nonnie Bautista‚ 1st sem‚ 2012-2013. ABSTRACT Photosynthesis and transpiration both play important roles in plants. But there are factors which affect the rate of photosynthesis and transpiration. The external factor that was identified is the
