The Effect of Light Intensity on Photosynthesis and Transpiration Inna V. Raymundo BOTANY I Section V-6L August 29‚ 2012 ¹A scientific paper submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements in Botany I laboratory under Dr. Nonnie Bautista‚ 1st sem‚ 2012-2013. ABSTRACT Photosynthesis and transpiration both play important roles in plants. But there are factors which affect the rate of photosynthesis and transpiration. The external factor that was identified is the

Collecting Photosynthetic Rates in Spinach (Spinacia oleracea) Introduction: The purpose of this study was to see which light color would cause the spinach sample to photosynthesize the most within the given time. In order to understand photosynthesis‚ we need to know that chloroplasts absorb light energy from the sun‚ the plant then takes that energy along with water and carbon dioxide and changes it to sugar and oxygen. This happens in order for the plants to grow. But‚ light energy comes in a

What is the best possible set of conditions for the maximum production of ATP? Nathaniel Redwine 9-24-14 590550535305001st Introduction The process of photosynthesis occurs when six carbon dioxide molecules (CO2)‚ six water molecules (H2O)‚ and light energy are added together and result in glucose (C6H12O6) and six oxygen (O2) molecules. There are two stages to this process; light reactions and dark reactions. Light reactions start with chloroplast which absorbs the light. Inside the chloroplast

Photosynthesis is a process whereby plants‚ algae and bacteria convert light energy in to chemical energy‚ using carbon dioxide and water. • Because photosynthesis only occurs in plants‚ why is it essential to animal life? Photosynthesis is important for animals because the plants produce the sugar they need as a vital

PLANT SYSTEMS QUESTION 1979:L. PETERSON/AP BIOLOGY In relation to plants‚ describe in detail one way of: a) measuring the rate of transpiration b) measuring the rate of photosynthesis c) separating pigments Essay : Transpiration is the loss of water vapor from land plants into the atmosphere‚ causing movement of water through the plant from the soil to the atmosphere via roots‚ shoot and leaves‚ which occurs mainly through the stomata. Factors which can affect the rate of transpiration are

number: a1740189 Word Count: TITLE A study using an oxygen electrode to determine the effects of varying light intensity on the rate of photosynthesis of spinach‚ Spinacia oleracea. INTRODUCTION Photosynthesis is a two-stage process‚ each with multiple reactions‚ which must work concurrently with each other in order for plant survival. The first stage of photosynthesis is the light dependent reactions which occur in the thylakoids followed by the second stage called the Calvin cycle which occurs in

The overall goal of photosynthesis is provide plants with energy which in return provides us with energy when we eat the plant. • Because photosynthesis only occurs in plants‚ why is it essential to animal life? Photosynthesis is essential to animal life because humans and animals rely on the energy from the plants to
