Transpiration and Leaf Resistance By: Bernina Berber Introduction Transpiration is a part of the water cycle process‚ and it is the loss of water vapor from parts of the plants. It is a process similar to evaporation. Evaporation and diffusion cause the plant tissue to have negative water potential. If you were to compare transpiration it would be like saying it is close to sweating (but in plants)‚ especially in leaves but also in stems‚ flowers and roots. Stomata are dots with openings on

Lab activity 1: Effect of temperature‚ concentration‚ and pressure on equilibrium Introduction Our ongoing discussion has been on systems at dynamic equilibrium: for a reversible reaction‚ the rate of the forward reaction is equal to the rate of the reverse reaction. What happens if equilibrium is disturbed? In this lab activity‚ we are going to examine the effect of changing reaction conditions on the position of equilibrium. Part I: Effect of temperature We will consider the equilibrium

Blood Pressure Anatomy And Physiology Breven Sellers 11/3/2014 Arteries • Arteries are thick walled‚ yet they are elastic enough to stand pressure from the heart pumping at a fast rate. The arteries job is to transport blood away from the heart‚ usually only transporting highly oxygenated blood‚ having just left the lungs and on its way to the body’s tissues Arterioles • There are smaller branches of the arteries called arterioles‚ they connect to the capillaries. • Arterioles are the main

The objective of this report is to critically explain the physiological effects of exercise on the human respiratory system and cardiovascular system. To begin with‚ I will explain the two systems‚ their specific functions and how they inter-relate. I will then go on to analyse the effects of exercise on the two systems by looking at the way in which the body deals with an increased workload‚ and any health issues that may affect this. Cardiovascular system This system is responsible for pumping
