Investigation 5: Photosynthesis Problem: If the leaf disks are treated in a way you know increases the net rate of photosynthesis‚ should they start to float faster or slower? Why? Hypothesis: If the leaf disks were bathed in a red light source‚ then the rate of photosynthesis would increase than leaf disks that are bathed in a regular light source because chlorophyll absorbs red pigment and reflects green pigments. Therefore‚ shining a red light source onto the leaf disks would cause them

The effect of different wavelengths of light on photosynthesis rate in spinach leaves Abstract: This experiment was performed to test the effect of different wavelengths of light had on photosynthesis. According to the results gathered we can say that if two plants are put under different lights‚ one green and one a normal light‚ that the plant under the normal light will perform photosynthesis at a higher rate than the plant under the green light. This experiment is important because it shows

AP Lab #5 Plant Pigments/Photosynthesis I. Identifying the Effects of Different Variables of Light and Carbon Dioxide on the Rate of Photosynthesis and Observing the Separation of Pigments Through Chromatography II. Introduction Plants have a variety of pigments‚ all of which absorb a different color of light. The three main pigments are chlorophyll a‚ chlorophyll b and carotenoids. Chlorophyll a is the primary plant pigment that absorbs red and blue light‚ which ultimately appears green to the human eye

this solvents can be used for chlorophyll extraction. However they have different property called polarity. This property affects their efficiency as chlorophyll solvent. For our tests we used isopropanol and hexan/benzin mixture. Note: solvent mixtures can give better results in extraction of the full complex of plant pigment then individual solvent. You could study how good the different solvents and their mixtures for chlorophyll extraction are. (Good chemistry science fair project idea

Trypsin has 51% light transmission at pH 2. At pH 9 the Trypsin has 39% light transmission. Between pH 2 and pH 9 the percentage of light transmission decreases at a steady rate‚ until it reaches pH 8 where there is a steep increase from 30% to 39% as the enzyme has reached its optimum pH at 8. During the experiment in the boiling tube this pH had the deepest red colour as the most protein gelatine was broken up. This meant that in the colorimeter when testing to see what the light transmission‚ this

In this lab‚ we extracted spinach pigments‚ and analyzed what colors of light these pigments absorb. By using TLC plate‚ hexane and acetone‚ I separated the pigments of spinach‚ and discovered that the main pigments were green and yellow. This works because with different polarities‚ pigments move at different rates. Hexane and acetone were also used to separate chlorophyll and carotene from spinach. Since they are polar‚ they can separate organic and inorganic things. From the experiment‚ I know

Benjamin Kleveland 502 October 26‚ 2014 Lab 7 Report Lights Distance and Wavelength Effect on Photosynthesis Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are often mistaken as the same thing. Although they are similar in many ways‚ photosynthesis and cellular respiration are the exact opposite of each other. Not figuratively‚ but literally the reverse (Photosynthesis). They incorporate the others products while adding some outside energy to create a never ending cycle. This brings us to the photochemical
