Plants need water for photosynthesis but they take in water through their roots so they need to transport the water up the stem to the leaves. Water is taken in by the root hairs because there is a higher water potential in the soil than in the root hairs. Then osmosis occurs to move the water from a cell with high concentration of water to a cell with low concentration through the permeable membrane. Once the water has moved down the concentration gradient it reaches a vessel called a xylem. As

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

ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) * 1st Law of Thermodynamics- Energy not created or destroyed 1. The sum of energy in universe- constant * 2nd Law of Thermodynamics- energy transfer results in increase entropy (less organization!!) * Adenosine is bonded to 3 phosphates 2. When cell needs energy… it splits off that 3rd P 3. Energy is released‚ ADP + P is formed‚ cell uses that energy for whatever it needs 4. Destination of the broken Phosphate??- Used as part of an endergonic

Transpiration Abstract This lab demonstrates how different environments effect the rate of transpiration in plants. A potometer is set up and placed in four different environments: one simply at room temperature (the control)‚ one with a fan pointing toward it creating a gentle breeze‚ on with a floodlight on it and a beaker felled with water as a heat sink‚ and one where the leaves are misted then covered with a transparent plastic bag. It is imperative that the tubing doesn ’t have any bubbles
