    Introduction: The rate of photosynthesis varies greatly with changes in wavelengths of light. Light’s colour is determined by its wavelength of light‚ and thus it is possible to devise an experiment to determine which wavelengths of light are most productive for photosynthesis than others. In this experiment I use a plant called Elodea (pond weed). Elodea is native to North America and it is also widely used as aquarium vegetation. The basic structure of these plants are whirls of leaves around

    Photosynthetic saturation is the maximum rate of photosynthesis. What was the value for photosynthetic saturation in tomato leaves? Answer Light quality does not effect the rate of photosynthesis. Answer Based on what you know about photosynthesis‚ provide possible reasons for what causes photosynthetic saturation (these cannot be determined from the graph). Answer Which color of visible light was least effective for photosynthesis? Answer What is the relationship

    Photosynthesis Green plants absorb light energy using chlorophyll in their leaves. They use it to react carbon dioxide with water to make a sugar called glucose. The glucose is used in respiration‚ or converted into starch and stored. Oxygen is produced as a by-product. The equation for photosynthesis: Carbon Dioxide + Water (+ Light Energy) → Glucose + Oxygen Symbol equation: 6CO2 + 6H2O ------> C6H12O6 + 6O2 (http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/gcsebitesize/science/add_aqa_pre_2011/plants/plants1

    Adenosine Triphosphate‚ also known as ATP‚ is the molecule responsible for the energy that we‚ and all other organisms‚ need to survive. It is produced primarily in the processes of aerobic and anaerobic respiration by oxidative and substrate phosphorylation. 4 molecules of ATP are produced from 4 ADP and 4 inorganic phosphates in glycolysis in the cytoplasm of every cell‚ by the oxidation of a triose phosphate into two molecules of pyruvate. In anaerobic respiration these are the only 4 ATP

    wildlife? We must make a conscious effort to conserve the world’s plants and animals. Plants are essential for our own survival. Plants use the sun’s energy to make food—a process called photosynthesis. Therefore plants are the first important link in the food chain of which humans also form a part. During photosynthesis‚ oxygen is released and oxygen is vital for the existence of life itself. Animals need plants in order to survive‚ but plants also need animals. Animals and plants are therefore

    germination of a seed affected by sunlight?” Experimental Hypothesis: We believe these results will occur. 1. The seeds that are water deprived (1 mL of H2O a day) will not grow very well due to a lack of water which is important in photosynthesis and also lacks nutrients. The seeds may also die off due to a lack of water. 2. The seeds that are have a proper amount of water (10 mL of H2O a day) will grow the best and achieve the greatest height‚ and overall best appearance.
