    relationship of different wavelengths of light and the rate of photosynthesis in spinach leafs. The rate of photosynthesis was measured every five min under light colors of white‚ green‚ red‚ blue and yellow under a light intensity of 2000 lux. The rate of photosynthesis was measured by the spinach disk method in which we replaced the air from the disks with sodium bicarbonate using a vacuum. Under photosynthesis‚ oxygen‚ a product of photosynthesis‚ replaced the bicarbonate solution‚ made the disks less

    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

    I) Introduction In this lab‚ a test was conducted to determine how the relative redox activity of chloroplasts from spinach leaves‚ which were performing photosynthesis‚ would change when in the presence or absence of light. To observe these changes in redox activity‚ the chloroplasts were exposed to DCPIP‚ a chemical that changes color according to such activity. By determining the redox activity of the chloroplasts‚ it could then be inferred which chloroplasts were photosynthesizing more actively

    would result in slower growth. The results did not support the hypothesis. Referring to table‚ one can see that blue caused both the spinach and radish plant to grow the most and that green light cause the plants to grow less. Spinach is a long-day plant therefore it was able to grow better under a constant light source. This would have aided in the plant growing faster than other forms of plant species. When experimenting with the spinach plant blue light worked exceedingly well in making the plant

    effect of differing wavelengths of visible light on the photosynthetic activity of Beta vulgaris Introduction Photosynthesis is a crucial biological process that occurs within the chloroplasts of plant cells where CO2 + H2O + Sunlight C6H12O6 + O2. The chloroplasts use light‚ an electromagnetic energy source‚ to produce food for the plant in the form of sugar molecules. During photosynthesis‚ the excited electrons from the light pass through proteins in the electron transport chain (ETC)‚ where ATP

    three smaller experiments as a result of the different properties chlorophylls possess and the need to test them individually to receive the most accurate results. Preparation for the lab began with selecting a medium to large spinach leaf and deveining it. Once the spinach was prepared‚ it was ground in 5 mL of 100% acetone‚ creating a green acetone extract. The extract was filtered through a funnel with a kimwipe and into a test tube. The volume of the filtered extract was estimated‚ and one half

    What is Photosynthesis? Its general reference is sunlight protons converted into resourceful energy‚ of which are autotrophs that work and feed themselves independently. To be more scientific using its equation 6CO2 + 6H2O – Sunlight Energy – C6H12O6 + 6H2O‚ carbon dioxide particles travel through a leaf’s cell surface‚ which is where the chloroplast organelle produces “chlorophyll molecules forming a light harvesting complex absorbing that energy‚ exciting electrons” ((n.d.).

    All green parts of a plant have chloroplasts. However‚ the leaves are the major site of photosynthesis for most plants. There are about half a million chloroplasts per square millimeter of leaf surface. The color of a leaf comes from chlorophyll‚ the green pigment in the chloroplasts. Chlorophyll plays an important role in the absorption of light energy during photosynthesis. Chloroplasts are found mainly in mesophyll cells forming the tissues in the interior of the leaf. O2 exits and CO2 enters
