Abstract The hypothesis states that plants respire at a faster rate if they are exposed to wind‚ opposed to no wind. This was tested by putting one plant in water in front of a fan and the other plant in water‚ but with no fan. The results showed that the plant in front of the fan transpired more. However‚ since the plant blew cold air it affected the rate of transpiration and altered the experiment. Overall‚ this experiment supports the hypothesis that wind makes plants transpire more.

Cellular Respiration I/ Introduction - Cellular respiration is the cellular process whereby carbon-containing compounds are broken down through the series of reactions that result in the gradual release of energy. - Cellular respiration consumes oxygen (O2) and produces (CO2). Because oxygen is required so cellular respiration is aerobic. - Include metabolic pathways: glycolysis‚ transition reaction‚ the Krebs cycle‚ electron transport system and oxidative phosphorylation. - Overall reaction:

Lab 5Cellular Respiration Introduction: Cellular respiration is an ATP-producing catabolic process in which the ultimate electron acceptor is an inorganic molecule‚ such as oxygen. It is the release of energy from organic compounds by metabolic chemical oxidation in the mitochondria within each cell. Carbohydrates‚ proteins‚ and fats can all be metabolized as fuel‚ but cellular respiration is most often described as the oxidation of glucose‚ as follows: C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + 686 kilocalories

Quitting caffeine is something that I had been thinking since months ago‚ but I had never decided to do it until today. Really‚ today was not that bad. First‚ in the morning I had breakfast and I didn’t look to the coffee maker. At school‚ I felt weird about go to the cafeteria and don’t ask for a coffee as I used to do every day with my friends‚ but it wasn’t a big deal because instead I drank a juice. Today was a little hard for me because when I woke up in the morning I felt the smell of the

the process is known as cellular respiration by which cells break down complex molecules‚ such as sugars‚ to release carbon dioxide. The complex chemical reactions of photosynthesis and cellular respiration help meet the energy needs of living things. (Cellular Respiration) In this experiment you will be testing the amount of carbon dioxide and oxygen produced or consumed during photosynthesis

The Effects of Secondary Plant Compounds on Lumbriculus Variegatus Heart Rate Introduction Blackworms (Lumbriculus variegatus) were used in this experiment to study the effects of secondary plant compounds‚ chemical compounds produced by plants that are not part of the general metabolism‚ on pulse rate. Secondary plant compounds act as defense mechanisms which reduce or eliminate consumption of some plant species or even attract predators. These compounds are not essential to the plant but often

All organisms on earth depend on photosynthesis‚ in which light energy is used to make sugar and other food molecules from carbon dioxide and water. For example‚ plants and other photo-synthesizers need only energy from sunlight‚ carbon dioxide from air‚ and water from the soil to make the sugar glucose. Photosynthesis is the most important chemical process on earth because it provides food for virtually all organisms‚ not only for photo-synthesizers but for the organisms that eat them. Plants can
