    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

    Micropipettor and Spectrophotometer Introduction In scientific experiments‚ correct measurements are required to achieve precise and accurate data. Precision is the degree to which several measurements provide answers very close to each other. Accuracy describes the nearness of a measurement to the standard or true value. Certain measuring devices are used to attain precision and accuracy. One example is the Air displacement pipette or the micropipettes. The micropipettes are measuring tools used

    Methods We began this experiment by turning the Spectrophotometer to 605 nm absorbance‚ and setting up each of the tubes as stated in Table 7-2*‚ ignoring the DPIP until the rest of the sample was set up. Once all of the samples were set up accordingly‚ we blanked the spectrophotometer‚ and added the DPIP to the sample right before‚ inverting the sample and taking a reading at the Zero time mark‚ and placing the sample in the designated light apparatus‚ Sample 1 was wrapped in aluminum foil to

    Aim To work out how light intensity can affect the rate of photosynthesis. Hypothesis I think that the further away the light source is the smaller the rate of photosynthesis is. This is because there is a further distance for the light to each the plant in order for it to photosynthesise. Although the closer the light source is‚ the more photosynthesis‚ the light source could also kill or damage the Elodea (type of pondweed) because it could become too hot and denature its cells. But because

    : Joanne Wong Student ID : 00000012636 (BM1/14) Title : Spectrophotometer and its function Introduction Spectrophotometry is the quantitative measurement of the reflection or transmission properties of a material as a function of wavelength.[1] It can measure any of the listed light ranges that usually cover around 200 nm - 2500 nm using different controls and calibrations. [1] There are a few types of spectrophotometer such as calorimeter‚ UV spectrometer‚ IR spectrometer‚ atomic spectrometer

    AFFECTING THE RATE OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS. Introduction Photosynthesis is a chemical reaction which takes place inside the green plants (plants with chlorophyll‚ a pigment found in chloroplasts which causes the colour of the plants and it is the main photosynthetic pigment) and light energy is converted into chemical energy. Carbon dioxide‚ water and sunlight is transformed into sugar an oxygen‚ which later will be used as energy for the plant. The chemical equation of photosynthesis is:

    Introduction Photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplast and is the use of sunlight energy for cell processes. It happens through a number of chemical reactions and the transfer of electrons. It is used as the source of energy (ATP) for plants. The reaction equation for photosynthesis is H2O + CO2 + (Light) (CH2O)N + CO2 In the Hill reaction‚ Robert Hill showed how chloroplasts in water can still function if there is light and an electron acceptor to release oxygen. He proved that the oxygen

    effect of differing wavelengths of visible light on the photosynthetic activity of Beta vulgaris Introduction Photosynthesis is a crucial biological process that occurs within the chloroplasts of plant cells where CO2 + H2O + Sunlight C6H12O6 + O2. The chloroplasts use light‚ an electromagnetic energy source‚ to produce food for the plant in the form of sugar molecules. During photosynthesis‚ the excited electrons from the light pass through proteins in the electron transport chain (ETC)‚ where ATP

    light intensity on the rate of photosynthesis. What is Photosynthesis? Photosynthesis is how plants get their food. The reason why plants have leaves‚ roots or being green is all linked to photosynthesis. In photosynthesis‚ a plant takes carbon dioxide from the air and water from the soil and uses the light from sunlight to turn them into food. Photosynthesis occurs only in the presence of light‚ and takes place in the chloroplasts of green plant cells. Photosynthesis can be defined as the

    Introduction The aims of the lab session was to familiarize with the principles‚ operation and application of a light spectrophotometer. This report discusses an experiment to study the relationship of absorbance and concentration‚ the interaction of electromagnetic radiant energy(ERE) and matter which is an important aspect of the Beer-Lambert ’s Law. This law states that the absorption of a compound is directly proportional to the concentration of that particular compound. This is because (a &
