Title: The success of photosynthesis in geranium leaves using visible light wavelengths obstructed by black paper‚ and red‚ blue‚ and green translucent filters. I. Abstract Photosynthesis is a process in which plants use light‚ water‚ and carbon dioxide to produce sugars‚ water and oxygen. Chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b‚ in the chloroplasts of a leaf‚ are responsible for absorbing wavelengths of light for use in photosynthesis with red and blue wavelengths being optimal. Testing

Paper Towel Lab Report AP Biology 15 September 2011 Which Towel is The Quicker-Picker Upper! To determine which of the most popular paper towel brands such as Bounty and Marcal would be the Quicker-Picker-Upper I conducted the following experiment during which I dipped 6in X 6in squares of paper towels into 100mL and measured the amount of water absorbed by the towels in 20 seconds. After averaging all 3 trials for the paper towel brands that I tested I arrived to the conclusion that the

The results of 7 mL water from the front camera in the experiment type 1 is shown in Figure 17. These results were also analyzed with the three different points on the time scale in the same way as the case of 5.5 mL water: that is‚ the first point (A)‚ the second one (B) and the third one (C). According to the three points‚ the graphs from PIV analysis are as well listed with the averaged velocities for 60 frames (30 seconds) and the black vector for only one pair of the frames.

Abstract Duckweed is a small aquatic plant that is able to grow rapidly‚ making it the ideal specimen for our experiment. It is hypothesized that altering the amount of light received by duckweed will alter its photosynthetic rate. It is predicted that a lower light intensity will lower the rate of growth in duckweed. Two treatment groups were covered with a screen in order to reduce light intensity. Both groups were kept under a controlled light source for fourteen days and plant counts were

as the graphical representation of the rate of photosynthesis against wavelengths of light. The graph shows how effective the different wavelengths of light are at enabling photosynthesis‚ and this can be determined by measuring either the carbon dioxide consumed or by the amount of oxygen released. Chlorophyll is a pigment found in the chloroplasts of organisms. In plants‚ it is the chlorophyll that absorbs the light energy and drives photosynthesis. On the absorption spectrum‚ chlorophyll a and

works. In our experiment we tested termite “handedness” – if termites prefer to turn left or right. We did this by placing a termite in an ink path with a fork in it which would cause the termite to choose between going left or right. The ink used in the experiment attracts termites insuring they will not run randomly in any direction. The data suggests that termites will prefer to turn left when given a choice even when the right path is identical to the left. Overall‚ this lab experiment lays the groundwork

SEEDLING GROWTH EXPERIMENT GEOS170C1 Fall 2014 Workshop 1 09/10/2014 Hypothesis: Electric energy can speed up the growth rate of plants. The access of an electric current can modifies the physic-chemical properties of the seed. It can charge the mitochondria‚ and intensifies other metabolic processes of the seed. This can achieve the purpose of sterilization‚ and enhanced the ability of absorbing water and oxygen. Prediction: The seeds that have been energized will sprout early than the control

Effects of Allelopathy on Plants Dates experiment was conducted: Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is to design a controlled experiment to see if a plant could survive living in eucalyptus tea. Allelopathy is when a plant gives off a bio-chemical that kills that plants around it‚ such as eucalyptus trees‚ black walnut trees‚ etc. My class went to the a eucalyptus grove and observed the eucalyptus trees. We noticed that there was a small circle around the tree that had nothing growing
