experiment is called chromatography. The materials used consisted of – 3 pieces of chromatography paper‚ a tall clear glass‚ water‚ table salt‚ 1 tsp. measuring spoon‚ an 8 oz. measuring cup‚ pencil‚ ruler‚ 6 washable markers‚ and paper towels. The markers used in this experiment have to be water soluble therefore I used washable markers made by Crayola. The colors I chose were brown‚ teal‚ red‚ orange‚ black‚ and green. The salt solution served as the mobile phase while the chromatography paper served

Determination of rate of photosynthesis INTRODUCTION Photosynthesis is the major process by which light from the sun is captured by plants‚ algae and some bacteria to produce energy. It is a process in which light energy is converted into chemical energy which is then stored in sugars. Photosynthesis occurs in two stages‚ light-dependant reactions and light-independent reactions. In light-dependent reactions the chlorophyll traps light energy which is then used to excite electrons and split water

Answers to Photosynthesis Practice AP Biology 1. Draw a picture of the chloroplast and label the stroma‚ thylakoid‚ thylakoid lumen (space)‚ inner membrane‚ outer membrane. 2. Using 18O as the basis of your discussion‚ explain how we know that the oxygen released in photosynthesis comes from water. When the oxygen in water has the radioactively labeled oxygen‚ the gas released from photosynthesis also has the labeled oxygen. This shows that the oxygen gas given off during photosynthesis comes from

highest amount rise‚ which will show us the optimal color of light for photosynthesis. These different colors of light included blue‚ red‚ green‚ fluorescent‚ regular light‚ and classroom light. The classroom light was our control cup during the lab. Before we conducted our experiment‚ the class learned about the photosynthetic process of‚ not only spinach discs‚ but plants in general. As I did more research on photosynthesis‚ the Calvin Cycle‚ wavelengths and pigments required for a proper equation

Problem How can you tell pigment separation by using Chromatography? Objective To prepare a chromatogram‚ separate pigments in a leaf and interpret the chromatogram. Hypothesis If I am to put a chromatography paper into a solvent‚ then it would separate the pigments depending on their Rf value. I think the pigments will separate in this order: Chlorophyll A‚ Chlorophyll B‚ Carotene‚ and Xanthophyll. Introduction Chlorophyll is the molecule that absorbs sunlight and uses its energy

When people hear candy chromatography‚ they don’t know what to think about it. They of course know that it had something to do with candy. But just don’t know what. Candy chromatography is fun and simple. Candy Chromatography is a fun project‚ plus it has to do with candy. Candy Chromatography is an experiment to find out the true colors of the dyes in candy. When you put a skittle or an M&M in your hand in hot weather‚ the candy tends to bleed the color. And sometimes it shows more than one color

Photosynthesis Maria Diaz March 12‚2012 Pre-Lab Questions 1. Which two variables are controlled in a similar manner? The two variables that can be controlled in a similar manner are CO2 & the light level. 2. How can you get the results to the investigation faster? You can get the results to the investigation faster by adjusting the speed at the bottom of the water weed simulation. 3. How will you be able to determine the rate of photosynthesis in this simulation

Rate of Photosynthesis Aim: To investigate the effects of light intensity on photosynthesis. Background: Photosynthesis is a process that plants undergo to produce glucose. The plant then uses the glucose to produce energy which the plant needs to sustain life. The chemical formula for photosynthesis is: Sunlight 6CO2 +6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2 Chlorophyll The plant requires light‚ carbon dioxide and water to partake in photosynthesis. Photosynthesis

Conclusion I predicted that if the decolorization of DPIP is caused by photosynthesis and not cell respiration and spinach extract containing chloroplasts and mitochondria is incubated with DPIP‚ then the rate of DPIP decolorization should be higher if in bright light verses dark light because DPIP is reduced by photosynthesis and not by the mitochondria or any other cellular function. If DPIP was only decolorized by chloroplasts‚ then the percent transmittance of chloroplast suspensions would be
