Introduction Transpiration is a process which is similar to the evaporation. Water is lost at the surface of the plant such as leaves‚ stems‚ roots and flowers in the form of water vapor. It creates a pulling. Force which causes continuous upward movement of water and mineral salts and this force is called transpiration pull. Apart from to water‚ gas like carbon dioxides from the air can also pass through by the pore of the surface of the plants for photosynthesis. But in this experiment‚ we

Major Chemical Properties for Cellular Respiration: We need oxygen at the cellular level for this to be complete. Why do you need oxygen? What is your body trying to do? Your body needs to produce energy‚ which is why you go through these metabolic processes‚ and that’s ultimately why you need oxygen. So we are trying to produce ATP as our energy source. So ultimately your energy cannot be created‚ it only changes form‚ so where does that energy come from in your body? We’re going to convert it into
