    Photosynthesis Abstract: An experiment was carried out to determine how certain factors such as light intensity and availability of carbon dioxide‚ affected the rate of photosynthesis. The rate of photosynthesis was measure by the amount of oxygen produce (cm3/min). A valid conclusion was made and most of the results were in accordance with the prediction‚ although there were some anomalies present. The errors and limitations were evaluated and some improvements were suggested. Introduction: Photosynthesis

    Introduction: The rate of photosynthesis varies greatly with changes in wavelengths of light. Light’s colour is determined by its wavelength of light‚ and thus it is possible to devise an experiment to determine which wavelengths of light are most productive for photosynthesis than others. In this experiment I use a plant called Elodea (pond weed). Elodea is native to North America and it is also widely used as aquarium vegetation. The basic structure of these plants are whirls of leaves around

    Elodea & Photosynthesis Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize nutrients from carbon dioxide and water. Photosynthesis in plants generally involves the green pigment chlorophyll and generates oxygen as a by-product. Introduction This lab has been created in order to find what extent does distance from a light source (5cm‚ 10cm‚ and 15cm) affect the rate of photosynthesis (measured in bubbles / 3 min) in Elodea water plants. Hypothesis:

    SCIENTIFIC REPORT ON THE EFFECT OF WAVELENGTH ON PHOTOSYNTHESIS Red wavelengths will increase the rate of photosynthesis to a greater degree than blue or green wavelengths and thus will be the most optimal for plant growth. This hypothesis will be tested under laboratory conditions using silver beet extracts and DCPIP under different wavelengths and assessing the photosynthetic qualities using a spectrometer at 605nm. Photosynthesis is the process by which the suns visible light (electromagnetic

    determine the wavelength and light intensity effect on the reaction rate of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the conversion of light energy to chemical energy in the form of organic compounds. There are two phases in photosynthesis‚ the light reaction and dark reaction. The following experiment tested only the light reaction. Photosynthesis takes place on the chloroplast‚ and the chloroplast contains chlorophyll pigments which absorb light energy. Pigments are particular to different wavelengths. The following

    Claire Graham BSC 2010L November 4th‚ 2015 Effects of Light Intensity and Wavelength on Photosynthesis of Spinach Leaves By replacing the air pockets in spinach leaf disks with a bicarbonate solution and allowing the disks to sit in the solution while being exposed to different light conditions‚ we were able to observe the effects of various light intensities as well as colors on the rate of photosynthesis. As the spinach leaves photosynthesized‚ oxygen pushed out the solution and filled the intercellular

    The effects of different wavelengths of light on the rate of photosynthesis Introduction This experiment was performed to investigate the effects of different wavelengths of light on the rate of photosynthesis. If a multiple colored film petri dishes are place under a 50 watt lamp‚ then the rate of photosynthesis will be greater for those with red‚ blue and clear film‚ than those with green and black film. We believed the petri dishes with the red‚ blue and clear film would produce the best

    product of photosynthesis‚ which is the process that converts energy in sunlight to chemical forms of energy that can be used by biological systems2. Many organisms are not able to use the energy obtained from sunlight directly; however‚ plants are able to use this energy and convert it into chemical energy by converting CO2 (carbon dioxide) and H2O (water) to organic materials3. The energy source for photosynthesis comes from sunlight‚ which allows for the fuel that drives photosynthesis. This process
