    Investigate the effect of on exercise on the heart rate. Aim: To find out if there is any relevant link between the amounts of exercise taken to increase a person heart rate. Equipment needed: Stop watch Screen volunteer P.E kit Calculator Record sheet Type of exercise: skip for few minutes ‚ then break in between and again repeat it once or twice. Method: First of all‚ we needed to take the resting heart rate of the person who is about to skip. Then‚ with the stopwatch one

    In this experiment‚ the class examined how the rate of photosynthesis was affected by different light colors at different distances in shoots of a Cabomba plant. The plants were placed in two different beakers‚ one with recently boiled and cooled distilled water and the other with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution. The three different color photoflood lamps used for this experiment were white‚ red‚ and green at four distances of thirty‚ sixty‚ ninety‚ and one hundred-twenty centimeters away

    Light Intensity Experiment: For the light intensity experiment‚ our first set of data illustrated strange correlations between the three tubes placed in front of a light source‚ so the data provided in e-campus was used. The tube that was 24 cm away from the light had the greatest decrease in absorbance over the course of 20 minutes‚ followed by the 30 cm and then the 49 cm light apparatus. The tube that was placed in the dark (wrapped in foil) remained a dark blueish-green color whereas the tubes

    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

    starch molecules. The process by which this happens is called photosynthesis and results in the formation of oxygen and glucose. Plants take in carbon dioxide‚ water‚ and light then release oxygen back into the air. This process happens because of the movement of hydrogen to the hydrocarbons that are produced during photosynthesis. The discovery of photosynthesis is attributed to Dutch scientist Jan Ingenhousz who was the first to find that light is necessary to the process‚ it happens in the green parts

    Investigating the effects of Caffeine on the heart rate of Daphnia Shrimp. Aim: In this experiment we are trying to find out how varying the concentration of caffeine can affect the heart rate of Daphnia shrimp. Prediction: I predict that caffeine will increase the heart rate of the shrimp . Introduction: I believe the results will comply with my prediction. Caffeine is a compound found in especially tea and coffee plants and acts as a natural pesticide. Caffeine is a central nervous system

    the relationship of different wavelengths of light and the rate of photosynthesis in spinach leafs. The rate of photosynthesis was measured every five min under light colors of white‚ green‚ red‚ blue and yellow under a light intensity of 2000 lux. The rate of photosynthesis was measured by the spinach disk method in which we replaced the air from the disks with sodium bicarbonate using a vacuum. Under photosynthesis‚ oxygen‚ a product of photosynthesis‚ replaced the bicarbonate solution‚ made the

    LIGHT IN PHOTOSYNTHESIS Theory: Leaf discs float normally. When the air spaces are infiltrated with the solution the overall density of the leaf disc increases and the disc sinks. The infiltration solution includes a small amount of sodium bicarbonate. The bicarbonate ions serve as the carbon source for photosynthesis. As photosynthesis proceeds oxygen is released into the interior of the leaf which changes the buoyancy – causing the discs to rise. Since cellular respiration is taking place

    Determination of rate of photosynthesis INTRODUCTION Photosynthesis is the major process by which light from the sun is captured by plants‚ algae and some bacteria to produce energy. It is a process in which light energy is converted into chemical energy which is then stored in sugars. Photosynthesis occurs in two stages‚ light-dependant reactions and light-independent reactions. In light-dependent reactions the chlorophyll traps light energy which is then used to excite electrons and split water

    AMDG THE RATE OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS The Factor of Carbon Dioxide I. Introduction In this lab‚ the rate of photosynthesis will be measured by manipulating a variable that is needed for the process of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process by which plants use light energy‚ carbon dioxide‚ and water to produce oxygen and glucose. This release of products provides the necessary nutrients for all forms of life. In water‚ leaves‚ usually float in water due to the gases such as carbon dioxide and
