    Biology Coursework ¡V Does The Light Intensity Affect the Rate of Photosynthesis The Investigation In this experiment I will investigate the affect in which the light intensity will have on a plants photosynthesis process. This will be done by measuring the bubbles of oxygen and having a bulb for the light intensity variable. Variables The input variable which will be used in this investigation will be the light intensity (this will be a 100Watt bulb being moved closer and further away from

    How does light intensity affect the rate of photosynthesis? Poorly Pondweed Questions 1) How does light intensity affect the rate of photosynthesis? 2) How does temperature affect the rate of photosynthesis? sunlight carbon dioxide + water glucose + oxygen chlorophyll sunlight 6CO2 + 6H2O àààààà C6H12O6 + 602 chlorophyll Prediction I predict that the more intense the light‚ the higher the rate of photosynthesis. To photosynthesise‚ plants need light. It provides the energy for the process

    For this experiment I am investigating how the light intensity as my limiting factor will have in impact on the amount to oxygen produced‚ to should the rate of photosynthesis.Therefore‚ all the controlled variables must remain constant‚ if not there could be an affect on the accuracy of the dependent variable. The CO2 levels are the same for each trial because before placing the sodium hydrogen carbonate i will weigh it with a measuring scale for 1.5 grams. After completing the five measurements

    This experiment focuses on the effect of light intensity on the rate of photosynthesis. In simple terms this refers to how the production rate of the products of photosynthesis (oxygen and glucose) will be affected by a light source at different distances. The hypothesis states that “If there is a higher light intensity‚ then more oxygen and glucose molecules will be produced‚ and the rate of photosynthesis will increase.” This hypothesis was accepted. This was determined by counting the number of

    Research question : How does the different light intensity affect the rate of photosynthesis in plants? Objective : To investigate the relationship between different light intensity (by having the source of light at different distance to the plant discs which is at; 10cm‚ 15cm‚ 20cm‚ 25cm‚ 30cm‚ and 35cm ) and rate of photosynthesis of plant. Introduction : Photosynthesis is the process where light energy is absorbed by green plants to convert the raw materials (carbon dioxide and water) into

    Objective To investigate the effect of carbon dioxide concentration on the rate of photosynthesis Introduction Photosynthesis is a process that is essential for every living organism. Organic substances‚ such as glucose‚ are made from carbon dioxide and water by light energy from the sun. The light energy is absorbed by chlorophyll and converted to chemical energy. During the process‚ oxygen is released as a by-product. The rate of photosynthesis is affected by a few of factors‚ including

    In conclusion‚ one can determine how photosynthesis is impacted by light intensity through the experimentation on ivy leaf disks in a bicarbonate solution. The function of the sodium bicarbonate in this experiment was to provide a sufficient amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) for the photosynthesis process to occur. Without CO2 or any of the other necessary reactants‚ glucose nor oxygen cannot be produced. The leaves rise and sink due to photosynthesis occurring in the plant cells. As the carbon from

    How does light intensity and carbon dioxide levels affect photosynthesis rate Phaladi Phaladi 201102379 Department Of Mathematics And Science Education University Of Botswana Plants‚ through the use of chlorophyll (green pigment in plants) that traps light can generate ‘food’ by combining carbon dioxide in the air and water. As with many chemical process energy is need to make and break molecules during the chemical process. The greater the light levels the more energy is available to carry

    If i increase the intensity of the rate of photosynthesis would drastically increase which is the light bubbles would be emitted in the jar in one minute because of the fact that the more photons of light that fall on a leaf then more chlorophyll molecules would be ionised and the more ATP and NADPH are generated If i increase the intensity of the rate of photosynthesis would drastically increase which is the light bubbles would be emitted in the jar in one minute because of the fact that the more

    INVESTIGATE A FACTOR AFFECTING THE RATE OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS. Introduction Photosynthesis is a chemical reaction which takes place inside the green plants (plants with chlorophyll‚ a pigment found in chloroplasts which causes the colour of the plants and it is the main photosynthetic pigment) and light energy is converted into chemical energy. Carbon dioxide‚ water and sunlight is transformed into sugar an oxygen‚ which later will be used as energy for the plant. The chemical equation of photosynthesis
