Chlorine in Photosynthesis Experiment Abstract Photosynthesis the means by which green plants and different types of organisms use light from the sun to synthesize foods from CO2 and H2O. Chlorine is a chemical element usually in the form of a yellow-green gas and is a strong oxidizing agent. Elodea is a type of aquatic plant also known as waterweed that is native to North America. In the experiment that took place‚ the effect of chlorine in the presence of photosynthesis reactions were studied

Test the Effect of Temperature on the Rate of Photosynthesis in Green Algae Background Photosynthesis is an amazing process where plants are able to create their own food as well as oxygen using sunlight‚ carbon dioxide (co2)‚ and water. The part of the plant responsible for photosynthesis is the enzymes in the chlorophyll (structures that carry out photosynthesis located in leaves). Photosynthesis is the process of creating glucose. Water + Carbon Dioxide + Sunlight = Glucose + Oxygen. There

WHAT IS PHOTOSYNTHESIS? 3 Every day the total amount of energy that is captured through photosynthesis all across our planet is equal to approximately 135 terawatts. Now to put this number into perspective the entire human race consumes approximately 15 terawatts of energy daily. This means that there is 9 times more energy being absorbed every day through photosynthesis‚ as there is energy being consumed by all of mankind (Bridges 2008). In order to fully understand photosynthesis

[Note: The purpose of these questions is to activate prior knowledge and get students thinking. Students are not expected to know the answers to the Prior Knowledge Questions.] • To survive‚ what gas do we need to breathe in? Oxygen • Where is this gas produced? In plants Gizmo

PHOTOSYNTHESIS LAB Alyssa Wright VARIABLE: LIGHT INTENSITY AIM: to investigate the effect of light intensity (lux) on the amount of oxygen produced (number of bubbles) HYPOTHESIS: I predict that the rate of oxygen produced increases‚ as the light intensity increases‚ but only to a point. I predict this will happen because the plant will have enough carbon dioxide and water to keep up with the amount of light that there is. When there is less light intensity‚ photosynthesis will happen

I can model Photosynthesis with The Law of Conservation Of matter and The Law of Conservation of energy. I know this because of the articles i’ve read the articles are Discovering the secrets of Photosynthesis‚ Joseph Priestley‚ Discoverer of Oxygen and Photosynthesis: Yucky chemistry Details. Photosynthesis is a good example of the Law of conservation of Energy because in the process of Photosynthesis the radiant energy is absorbed by the plant. The radiant energy is then turned into chemical

Photosynthesis Matt Lazar 5/13/96 8th Hr. When you and me eat‚ we find our food. When plants eat‚ they make their own food and energy. They make their food and energy through a process called photosynthesis. Through photosynthesis oxygen is also produced. Photosynthesis is "a process in which green plants synthesize carbohydrates from carbon dioxide and water....The reverse of this reaction provides energy for plants‚ for animals that eat plants‚ for animals that eat animals that eat plants"

fuels‚ substandard emission techniques‚ and an ever growing population all play an intricate role of raising Earth’s overall temperature. Each can be linked through one key adversary‚ carbon dioxide. Rising CO2 levels are almost the sole reason temperatures are rising at such an alarming rate. Aside from water vapor‚ carbon dioxide is a chief ingredient in our Greenhouse Effect stew. It’s everywhere. It emits from our cars‚ it flies from our smokestacks‚ and it empties from our lungs. All of Earth is
