the rate of photosynthesis using leaf discs. Aim : To measure the effect of light intensity on the rate of photosynthesis in leaf discs. Introduction : The simple concept of photosynthesis is that it can occurs in the presence of light‚ which takes place in the chloroplasts of green plant cells. Photosynthesis can also be defined as the production of simple sugars from carbon dioxide and water causing the release of glucose and oxygen. The chemical equation for photosynthesis can

purpose of this lab was to investigate whether veins affect photosynthesis rate. It was predicted that having veins would decrease the rate because chloroplast might be less frequent due to the vascular tissue. For this experiment‚ 4 groups were set up: veins and no veins in CO2 solution‚ and veins and no veins in distilled water‚ the distilled water groups served as controls. These 4 groups were placed under a light bulb in order for photosynthesis to occur. No disks experience movement in the first 7

The purpose of this lab was to use a spectrophotometer to find the concentrations of glucose in varying samples of Gatorade. The varying executions included changing the temperature of reaction (room temperature instead of 40 degrees centigrade)‚ changing the time for reaction (20 minutes in the water instead of 45 minutes)‚ and changing the amount of enzyme added (0.1mL of enzyme. The results in from this lab gave data points with respect to ferricyanide. Fortunately‚ ferricyancide and glucose have

component in photosynthesis; converting electromagnetic radiation from the sun into potential chemical energy. Photons excite electrons in chlorophyll which move through the electron transport chain‚ resulting in energy being stored in the bonds of ATP and NADPH. The flow of electron through the electron transport chain can be measured using DCPIP‚ a blue chemical which turns colourless when reduced by electrons at the final step of the electron transport chain. The absorbance was measured using a spectrophotometer

How light intensity effects the Rate of photo synthesis. Aim The aim of my experiment is to find out how light intensity affects the rate of photosynthesis. Prediction I predict that as the light intensity increases that the rate of photosynthesis will increase in proportion‚ so for example if you increase the light intensity from 10cm away to 20 cm away form a stationary plant. There for the rate of photosynthesis will decrease proportionally with the distance of the light from the plant (in

Five clean spectrophotometer tubes wereare necessary with the different temperatures labeled on them using a wax pencil (Blank‚ Room Temp‚ 35 degrees Celsius‚ 45 degrees Celsius‚ and 55 degrees Celsius).

Based off the results from this lab the student was able to determine and have an overall better understanding of the variables that affect the rate of photosynthesis in a plant. The first variable the student tested in the lab was 30cm of light with CO2 present. The student started this trial with all 10-leaf disks and timed how many leaf disks came up every minute for 15 minutes. One minute into the trial and the student recorded that no leaf disks had yet to rise to the top of the solution. At

The colour red gives the highest rate of photosynthesis (89 bubbles per minute) with blue giving the second highest rate of photosynthesis (70 bubbles per minute)‚ and yellow giving the third highest rate of photosynthesis (64 bubbles per minute) and green with by far the least (44 bubbles per minute).
