AP BIOLOGY Lab 5 Cellular Respiration Objective: To calculate the rate of CR from the data. To then relate gas production to respiration rate. Then test the rate of CR in germinating versus non-germinating seeds in a controlled experiment and then test the effect of temperature on the rate of CR in the germinating versus non-germinated seeds in a controlled experiment. Analysis: 1. The CR is higher in the germinating peas in the cold water rather than in the beads or non-germinating peas
