: How does the different light intensity affect the rate of photosynthesis in plants? Objective : To investigate the relationship between different light intensity (by having the source of light at different distance to the plant discs which is at; 10cm‚ 15cm‚ 20cm‚ 25cm‚ 30cm‚ and 35cm ) and rate of photosynthesis of plant. Introduction : Photosynthesis is the process where light energy is absorbed by green plants to convert the raw materials (carbon dioxide and water) into sugars and oxygen

thaliana is a small plant in the mustard family (Mitchell-Olds‚2001) that became the best studied model system in plant species. Thaliana is considered a weed. The flowering plant Arabidopsis thaliana is a important model system to identify genes and determine their functions. In 1964‚ Plant scientists made a prediction that Arabidopsis thaliana would become the botanical equivalent of Drosophila‚ and history has carried out this prediction. Arabidopsis thaliana was the first plant to have its genome

Temperature also plays a big row in everyday life. For example‚ if the weather is good (no snow) it gives opportunity for more livestock to grow‚ and more carbon-diode to plants and also enough oxygen. But if the weather is cold or it snows‚ trees will be frozen‚ less amount of oxygen‚ carbon-dioxide and sometimes affect the growth of plants and animals. All species in a habitat regulate their own temperature in adapting to the system i.e. one species may be cold blooded or warm blooded and these temperatures

unreachable for some places were the pollution is starting to affect humans and animals in a serious way. The phytoremediation process‚ is a process that is use to reduce or remove the pollution form land‚ water‚ sediments and air using living plants. In this process the plants degrade of break down the pollutants or remove and stabilize metal contaminants. This is a very efficient process‚ and is one of the most accessible‚ it is estimated that it cost form $25-$100 per ton of soil and $0.60- $6.00 per 100
