Background Theory Photosynthesis: Plants require water from the soil‚ sunlight and carbon dioxide found in the atmosphere for growth and development. In the process of photosynthesis‚ carbon dioxide and water – in the presence of chlorophyll and light energy – are converted into sugar and oxygen‚ which is given off as a by-product. Generally‚ as sunlight increases in intensity‚ the rate of photosynthesis also increases [1]. This means greater food production within the plant. Many garden vegetables

The purpose of this experiment is to see which color bulb attracts the most insects at night time. I will use the same lamp for both bulbs and put it in the same location outside a window so I can observe the lamp without disturbing the insects with my presence. I will watch one color for ten minutes and wait 20 minutes after to do the other color. This is to make sure the second light is not having similar bugs recorded from the first light. For every observation day I will switch the order of the

After performing this experiment‚ it was found that the surface the chocolate was placed on could make a major difference. The hypothesis that was made had mostly incorrect predictions‚ but with some correct ones. It was found that using the palm of one’s hand was the best surface on which to melt chocolate‚ as was predicted. It melted so far‚ and so fast‚ that the experiment had to be altered. Coming in second place was the surface of black paper‚ something that was not expected. The black

higher the rate of reaction. Graph 5 further supports the original hypothesis‚ as it demonstrates the change the rate of reaction according increased volume of hydrogen peroxide‚ whereby the fastest rate of reaction occurred at the highest number of drops added to the solution.

lObjective This experiment explores how salt and sugar affect the melting rate of ice in water. Research Questions: * Does adding salt to ice and water slow down‚ speed up‚ or not change the rate the ice melts in the water? * Is salt the only substance to have this effect? What about sugar? Knowing how to speed up the melting rate of ice is very important information for anyone who needs to de-ice roads or driveways after a winter storm. While it seems simple‚ adding salt to ice water

How Variations Of 5‚ 10‚ 15‚ 20‚ And 25 Squats Affects the Respiration Rate In 14 Year- Old Year 9 Boys. The human respiratory system is made up of the lungs and the passages that lead to them. Air is breathed into the lungs‚ and oxygen from the air passes into the blood‚ which carries it around the body. The waste product‚ carbon dioxide‚ is then passed from the blood into the lungs and is breathed out. This all happens with the immense help of oxygen‚ to maintain a functional human body. However

Abstract: This lab tests how temperature and pH affect how enzymes will function. The lab showed that temperature will denature an enzyme when past its optimal working temperature and won’t denature in cold temperatures‚ but have slowed molecular activity. pH will also have an affect on an enzymes efficiency‚ when out of optimal pH the enzyme will not function as it is supposed to and if to far out of the optimal pH the enzyme will change shape and no longer work. Enzymes also showed to be reusable

Introduction Photosynthesis is a redox reaction which requires carbon dioxide‚ water and light to produce water and a 6-carbon sugar. The process of photosynthesis consists of two parts‚ a light reaction and a light-independent reaction. The method of changing light energy into chemical energy for the formation of NADPH and ATP is done through the light reactions. Light independent reactions use carbon dioxide and the products of light reactions (ATP and NADPH) to form compounds such as glucose

Question/Purpose: The Question or Purpose of our lab is to answer the question “How is the germination of a seed affected by sunlight?” Experimental Hypothesis: We believe these results will occur. 1. The seeds that are water deprived (1 mL of H2O a day) will not grow very well due to a lack of water which is important in photosynthesis and also lacks nutrients. The seeds may also die off due to a lack of water. 2. The seeds that are have a proper amount of water (10 mL of
