To begin the process of extracting DNA‚ the double-stranded hereditary material found in all living organisms‚ from the cells of split peas‚ a solution was made by blending split peas (100ml)‚ table salt (less than 1ml)‚ and cold water (200ml). The salt helped the DNA strands of molecules to stick together to be easily seen later in the experiment. The split pea cells were separated from each other by the blending process which had made them more susceptible to the next added ingredients. The blended

Colleen Hamilton AP Lab 4: Determining the Rate of Cellular Respiration of Peas at Varying Temperatures and Stages of Germination I. Purpose and Intro The purpose of this lab is to determine the rate at which germinating peas respirate at varying temperatures and stages of germination. Cellular respiration is the set of metabolic reactions and processes that takes place in an organism’s cells in order to create ATP from sugar. It occurs in the mitochondria and comprises three stages: glycolysis

EFFECTS OF NITROGEN FIXING PEA PLANTS (Pisum sativum) ON GROWTH OF CORN (Zea mays) Introduction Interactions among plant species‚ particularly negative ones‚ have been a concern in agriculture (Levene 1926‚ Russell 1961). Novoa (1981) suggested that it would be advantageous to rotate certain crops by season‚ grow certain crops together‚ or avoid growing certain crops on the same land. Observations indicated that some crops require specific types of nutrients in contrast to other crop

non germinated pea would consume more oxygen and from that question I made the hypothesis that if the garden pea has more water saturated in it than the other dry peas it would consume more oxygen because water is a key molecule in the facilitation of certain reaction and processes especially in cellular respiration. In conclusion‚ the lab demonstrated many critical things relating to cellular respiration. It showed that the rates of cellular respiration are greater in germinating peas than in non-germinating
