Photosynthesis depends on an interaction between two sets of reactions: the light reactions and the Calvin cycle. Chlorophyll and the other molecules responsible for the light reactions are built into the thylakoid membranes. The enzymes that catalyze the Calvin cycle are located in the stroma. Beginning with the absorption of light by chlorophyll‚ the light reactions convert light energy into chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH. The ATP provides the energy‚ and the NADPH supplies the electrons

The Experiment Gloria Isham Central Texas College Twenty- six men are chosen to participate in the roles of guards and prisoners in a psychological study led by a Doctor Archaleta for which each participant is to receive $14‚000 after two weeks. Travis has just lost his part time job and is a peace protester who wants to travel to India with his girlfriend. Barris is a 42-year-old who lives alone with a domineering mother‚ who has made him join the experiment to raise money for her hip operation

EXPERIMENT 1: REACTIONS OF ENOLATE IONS WITH CARBONYL GROUPS Aims In this experiment we used two techniques for the reactions of enolate ions with carbonyl groups. One technique used was Doebner reaction and the other technique used was Claisen-Schmidt reaction. Therefore the aim of this experiment is to synthesize trans p-methoxycinnamic acid and to synthesize dibenzalacetone via an aldol condensation reaction between acetone and benzaldehyde. The products would be recrystallized using ethanol

How does light intensity affect the rate of photosynthesis? Poorly Pondweed Questions 1) How does light intensity affect the rate of photosynthesis? 2) How does temperature affect the rate of photosynthesis? sunlight carbon dioxide + water glucose + oxygen chlorophyll sunlight 6CO2 + 6H2O àààààà C6H12O6 + 602 chlorophyll Prediction I predict that the more intense the light‚ the higher the rate of photosynthesis. To photosynthesise‚ plants need light. It provides the energy for the process

Experiment 2: IDENTIFICATION OF UNKNOWNS BY TLC AND MP IN COMBINATION Introduction: Thin layer chromatography (TLC) is one of the most valuable techniques in organic chemistry. This is a best method of separating and identifying mixtures of two or more compounds. The separation is accomplished by the distribution of the mixture between two phases: one that is stationary and one that is moving or mobile. Chromatography works on the principle that different compounds will have different

Title: Rate of Photosynthesis Introduction: Photosynthesis occurs in plants where the light energy changes to chemical energy. This process occurs in the chloroplast of the plant cell in order to have gas exchange in the organism. Purpose: To measure the effect of light intensity on the rate of photosynthesis in the leaf cells. Hypothesis: The higher the concentration of the sodium bicarbonate solution‚ the faster the leaf of the plant will rise to the surface of the water in the beaker‚ the

FIRE RESISTANT BALLOON: Materials - 1 matchbox - 1 candle - 1 yellow colored balloon - 1 blue colored balloon - Half a cup of water Procedure: 1. For this experiment‚ the independent variable is whether the balloon is filled with water or not. The dependent variable is what happens to the balloon when it is placed above the lit candle. This is determined by observing the balloon. The constants (control variables) are how much the balloon is inflated and the amount

process of distillation. Distillation is the separation of volatile substances mixed with nonvolatile substances by boiling the mixture to alter the phase of the volatile substance. The researchers used the simple distillation set up to conduct the experiment. 25 ml of The Bar Vodka was used and 7 ml of distillate was collected before a temperature of 95 degrees Celsius was reached. Collected distillate was then subjected to a flammability test to confirm ethanol content. The percent ethanol was computed

Conclusion I predicted that if the decolorization of DPIP is caused by photosynthesis and not cell respiration and spinach extract containing chloroplasts and mitochondria is incubated with DPIP‚ then the rate of DPIP decolorization should be higher if in bright light verses dark light because DPIP is reduced by photosynthesis and not by the mitochondria or any other cellular function. If DPIP was only decolorized by chloroplasts‚ then the percent transmittance of chloroplast suspensions would be
