The effect of wavelength of light on the rate of photosynthesis was investigated in this experiment. The results from Figure 13 suggest that white light‚ containing all wavelengths of coloured light‚ has the highest rate of photosynthesis. Purple light had the second highest efficiency‚ followed by blue‚ red‚ and yellow light. Green light was significantly less efficient‚ producing the second lowest pH reading (Figure 14). The samples exposed to no light had the lowest rate of photosynthesis. The

Does wind power have a negative impact on human health? By Kim Chau Contents page Wind power‚ how it works and how it’s used 1 Sound and the human ear 2‚ 3 Wind power‚ how it works and how it’s used Wind is the movement of air caused by difference in atmospheric pressures. Wind comes to many different uses along with many benefits; one of its greatest benefits is that it’s a renewable source of energy unlike materials such as coal and oil. The use of wind for energy also does not have

Put simply‚ photosynthesis is the process of converting light energy into chemical energy and storing it in the bonds of sugar. Photosynthesis comes from the Greek language and literally means “Light Composition” or “Putting Together Light.” Photosynthesis generally takes place in plants‚ however it also takes place in algae and many species of bacteria. In photosynthesis‚ light energy is converted to chemical energy and the chemical energy is then stored in the form of glucose‚ or sugar. Carbon

“Respiration” and “Photosynthesis” All life depends on two chemical reactions “Respiration” and “Photosynthesis”. These two processes are quite crucial because they are a source to nearly all life on Earth. Both of these processes are quite similar yet differentiate vastly. In this essay I’ll be comparing and contrasting “Photosynthesis” and “Respiration”. I’ll start by discussing what actually happens

every day in the united states and all over the world. Ultimately‚ what effect does child abuse have on children? What effect carries with them through adolescents and adulthood? There are many outcomes that can occur from childhood abuse and they can be psychologically‚ physical‚ and more. Abuse is not a set-in stone sentence. It affects each child differently and some abuse may not be as frequent and in turn has less of an effect on the child. Many factors go into how a child experiences abuse and

Dreams have always been a very important part of the world due to the extremely powerful influence they have on people. In some cases dreams are so powerful that they can ascend the common man and become the identity of a nation. The United States of America is one of these nations‚ as it has always prided itself on the American dream. This dream states that everyone is equal and that no matter the start anyone can become a success. While this idea was occasionally picked apart‚ it wasn’t until after

Aquaponics system is a food production system that combines conventional aquaculture‚ raising aquatic animals such as snails‚ fish‚ crayfish or prawns in tanks‚ with hydroponics cultivating plants in water in a symbiotic environment. In normal aquaculture‚ excretions from the animals being raised can accumulate in the water‚ increasing toxicity. In an aquaponic system‚ water from an aquaculture system is fed to a hydroponic system where the by-products are broken down by nitrogen-fixing bacteria

Introduction Photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplast and is the use of sunlight energy for cell processes. It happens through a number of chemical reactions and the transfer of electrons. It is used as the source of energy (ATP) for plants. The reaction equation for photosynthesis is H2O + CO2 + (Light) (CH2O)N + CO2 In the Hill reaction‚ Robert Hill showed how chloroplasts in water can still function if there is light and an electron acceptor to release oxygen. He proved that the oxygen
