    An Increase in Light Intensity Increases the Rate of Respiration M. Chauntise‚ S. Shaika‚ R. Shantal INTRODUCTION The sun plays a vital role in sustaining an entire living world whether indirectly or directy using a transformation process called photosynthesis. This process assists in nourishing plants and keeping them alive. For example‚ trees grow very tall in the rainforest where there is an abundance of water in order to reach as much light as they can. For this reason‚ in order to survive the

    measure the relative intensities of light at various horizontal distances from the lamp. The light detector (photocell) will enable us to make light intensity measurements that are more precise than those made with the human eye. The photocell converts light intensity to an electrical potential difference‚ which can be measured with a voltmeter. Using our measurements made from numerous elevations above the table‚ we assumed voltmeters were proportional to the intensity of light and observed a relationship

    be defined as light energy being converted into chemical energy‚ which is a very important process for plants and other organisms. Light can be described in terms of light quantity and light quality. Both of these have an affect on photosynthesis. The more light a plant absorbs the more the plant is able to photosynthesize. This light is absorbed though pigments which have specific interactions with certain light waves (colors). The goal of my first experiment was to test the effect that which different

    covers assessment criteria 5 and 6 The Photoelectric effect‚ and the Production of Light In 1887 Hertz discovered the photoelectric effect‚ where electrons were emitted from a zinc surface when illuminated with ultra-violet light. These electrons (called ‘photoelectrons’) were only emitted when the frequency of the ultra-violet light was above a certain value (called the ‘threshold frequency’). Criteria 5c Assume that ultra-violet light is falling onto a piece of zinc‚ and photoelectrons are

    ammonia and die. Duckweed does not have a specific depth of water that it is required to grow in‚ however it is not ideal for the duckweed to grow in shallow conditions. If the pond is too shallow than the freezing and evaporating point of the pond will fluctuate too much for the duckweed to grow. Duckweed is composed of a think cell wall‚ with chloroplasts‚ mitochondria‚ smooth ER‚ Rough ER‚ a vacuole‚ cytoplasm‚ goolgi body‚ nucleus‚ nucleolus. All these parts in duckweed help the plant carry

    converted into glucose‚ which can either be used in the cell for aerobic cellular respiration or other substances needed for growth. After the leaves of the seed are exposed to light‚ photosynthesis provides the seed with food and the food stores are no longer needed. In this research‚ the relationship between Mung bean light exposure and germination will be investigated. In order for germination to take place certain external factors are needed. Water must be available for the seed to hydrate

    The aim of this investigation is to see whether I can find a definite relationship between the light intensity onto the leaf’s surface and the surface area of the leaf. Hypothesis I think the light intensity could affect the surface area in the following way: ·A higher light intensity could make the surface area of the leaf larger. The reason I think a higher light intensity could make the surface area larger is the fact that there would be a larger amount of chlorophyll‚ containing chloroplasts
