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

Investigations in Light Intensity Change through Angular Displacement Guiding Question How does the intensity of light change as the angle of incidence to the light source increases? Prediction of Results Predict what you think will happen and what type of equation and graph might best fit the data representing the intensity of a light as the angle of incidence increases. Objective After completing this lesson‚ a student should be able to analyze light intensity striking a surface at varying

Photosynthesis Lab Report Introduction The lights are essential for photosynthesis and it plays a major role. All the food we eat and all the fossil fuel we use is a product of photosynthesis‚ which is the process that converts energy in sunlight to chemical forms of energy that can be used by biological systems. Photosynthesis is carried out by many different organisms but usually by plants and algae. All these organisms convert CO2 (carbon dioxide)

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

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

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

UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND‚ COLLEGE PARK‚ MARYLA‚-ND Aimong the environmental factors affectingf the growth rates of unicellular algae‚ light is frequently at an improper level. In many laboratory cultures used for physiological research the light intensity is too low to permit logarithmic growth. In nature the intensity is well above saturation

The light reactions of photosynthesis contain two photosystems‚ two electron transport chains‚ and ATP synthase. These parts are embedded in the thylakoid membranes of a chloroplast. The photosystems contain a collection of chlorophyll molecules. Chlorophyll‚ which is the green pigment of leaves‚ absorbs light energy that excites electrons to a higher energy level. Energized electrons from photosystem I are passed down an electron transport chain and added to NADP+ to form NADPH. Electrons from photosystem

Conclusion In this experiment I tested different light intensities. I tested a normal fluorescent light bulb‚ a 100-watt light bulb‚ a 25-watt light bulb‚ and a 15-watt light bulb. I was surprised to find that the control plant grew the most at 135 mm. The 100 watt plant grew the least at 0 mm due to the fact that it fried the plant. The 25 watt plant grew the next highest at 120 mm. The 15-watt light bulb grew tall fastest‚ but then slowed down and stopped at 98 mm you would want to use this
