Photosynthesis is the process by which light energy is used to convert inorganic compounds into organic substances with the subsequent release. There are many factors which can have an effect on the process of photosynthesis; in this laboratory experiment‚ the focus lies on carbon dioxide (CO2) availably and its effect on photosynthesis. By understanding the component that affect the rate of photosynthesis‚ one can do work to try and increase the rate of photosynthesis. The purpose of this laboratory

Polarized light are those that are vibrating in one direction- in a single plane such as up and down. Those that are vibrating in more than one direction -- in more than one plane such as both up/down and left/right -- are called unpolarized light. Generally‚ unpolarized light can be considered to be vibrating in a vertical and a horizontal plane. To polarize light‚ one can transmit the light through a polariod filter which will only allow light of single polarity to pass. The resulting light will be

circuit: Light Dependent Resistors Light Dependent Resistors (LDR) are also called photoresistors. They are made of high resistance semiconductor material. When light hits the device‚ the photons give electrons energy. This makes them jump into the conductive band and thereby conduct electricity. A photoresistor or light-dependent resistor (LDR) or photocell is a light-controlled variable resistor. The resistance of a photoresistor decreases with increasing incident light intensity; in other words

Photosynthesis is the process which plants use to change Carbon Dioxide and water into sugar by using the sunlight. Photosynthesis usually take place in plants cell such as chloroplast. In this lab experiment‚ we used sodium bicarbonate to influence photosynthesis. Sodium bicarbonate is a formula of NaHCO3 (baking soda). In this lab experiment‚ we observed photosynthesis in spinach leave and investigated the effect of sodium bicarbonate on photosynthesis. The experiment was to determine how many

normally is in its ground state energy. When a light source puts off an electromagnetic energy‚ the molecule can move to a higher more excited energy. When the molecule transitions down in energy‚ it usually is released as heat. Conversely‚ if the molecule is subject to high energy the molecule can transition down to its ground state by fluorescence. This emission of a photon creates wavelengths that are captured by spectrophotometric methods. Fluorescent intensity is represented by the equation F=k C. Where

respiration and photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is performed by plant organisms and some bacteria‚ and cellular respiration is performed by all living organisms. These two processes are reliant on each other. Photosynthesis creates oxygen‚ which is used in cellular respiration. Cellular respiration in turn creates carbon dioxide‚ which is an important “ingredient” in the process of photosynthesis. Let’s take a closer look at what makes these processes so important to all living things. Photosynthesis is the

First‚ the dye itself will be examined to see what the optimal wavelength and absorbance will be when created in a serial solution. Red Dye 40 was the prime object that will be studied in this lab because it is one of the most common dyes in every day drinks. Before performing any experiment though‚ it is important to understand
