That was fast: The influence of light intensity on the growth and development of Wisconsin Fast Plants Introduction It is common knowledge that plants need light to grow and develop. This is done by the conversion of light energy into usable sugars during photosynthesis. Light absorbing molecules‚ known as pigments‚ absorb only specific wavelengths of visible light‚ mostly blue and red wavelengths (1). Whatever wavelength isn’t absorbed is reflected and the reflection is the color of plant we

energy from our hands to the ice and the temperature difference between the two objects. The energy we are familiar with is called heat while temperature is the measure of a degree of heat or coldness of an object. In everyday life‚ heat or cold is commonly used to explain the degree of temperature of an object. An object that is said to be hot means it has a high temperature. Similarly‚ when an object is said to be cold‚ is means it is has a low temperature.  IMAGE GOES HERE Image Source Why

The effect of environmental factors such as temperature‚ osmotic pressure‚ oxygen concentration and pH on microbial growth and survival Abstract: Microbial growth can be affected by different environmental factors such as temperature‚ osmotic pressure‚ oxygen concentration and pH. Six experiments were carried out in this report testing for microbial growth against different environmental factors. Good aseptic techniques were used to prevent contamination‚ resulting in a uniform set of results

is which type of temperature change will result from heating ice to liquid‚ then boil (steam)? What will happen to the water after the boil? I hypothesise the water heats ice to liquid and then goes to simmer and boil. The independent variable is the hot plate changed to a burner itself. The dependent variable is what we are measuring is the time. The steps in the lab were to first start off with a burner‚ ice and water in a beaker‚ then record time and water temperature. Also‚ some phase

Is Earth really being Harmed by Human Activity? In my opinion‚ the Earth is definitely being harmed or should I say damaged by human activity. It is quite obvious when we look around us‚ when we see read and watch the news‚ and when we research for ourselves. I believe the major cause in the damage of the Earth all began with the introduction of industrialization. As a result of industrialization‚ pollution came about. Deforestation was inevitable because of the expansion of urban developments

Negative Temperature Coefficient (NTC) thermistors exhibit a decrease in electrical resistance when subjected to an increase in body temperature and Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) thermistors exhibit an increase in electrical resistance when subjected to an increase in body temperature. U.S. Sensor produces thermistors capable of operating over the temperature range of -100 ° to over +600 ° Fahrenheit. Because of their

To begin the analysis‚ the properties of the air at the base of the tower were examined. The wet and dry bulb temperatures of the air at the inlet were used to find the humidity‚ humid volume‚ and enthalpy of dry air. For example‚ in the first trial the dry bulb temperature was 22.5⁰C and the wet bulb was 16.5⁰C‚ and the properties found from the psychrometric chart are listed below. H_bottom=0.0095 kg/(kg dry air) V_bottom=0.85 m^3/(kg dry air) h_bottom=47 kg/(kg dry air) Then‚ the cross-sectional
