    water (Sadava‚ 2010).   In lab 3b‚ all of the plants in this experiment will lose a lot of water through transpiration‚ but those affected by the light and the fan will lose a larger amount of water.   Then the hypothesis can be factors that increase evaporation will increase transpiration.   Plants transpire actively in the light than in the dark‚ lights also speeds up transpiration by warming the leaf.  ranspiration is the loss of water from a plant. Plants transpire water out of the stomata in their

    Planning Introduction Stomata are pores on the bottom of leaves of vascular plants. The function of stomata is to allow gaseous exchange (transpiration) between the plant and the external environment (see diagrams below). This process is carried out by the plant‚ which controls the opening and closing of stomata via the guard cells. The more stomata a leaf contains the greater the rate of gas exchange and the less water it will be able to accumulate. Stomatal pores are formed between

    cells in the human body and reach an organ deep within it‚ like the heart. The movement of waste from inside the body to outside the body is also not possible without a transport system. For this very reason‚ large multicellular organisms such as plants and mammals must have multiple specialised transport systems. Many large multicellular organisms contain complex transport systems. In mammals‚ a circulatory system containing the heart‚ arteries‚ veins‚ blood and lungs allow cells in the organism

    transpiration of a plant (hibiscus) by measuring the plant’s water uptake in a period of time. HYPOTHESIS Transpiration is the process by which plants loses water to the atmosphere from their leaves. Water in the plant is lost to the atmosphere by evaporation. Evaporation of water can occur at any temperature. In the presence of sunlight‚ water in the plants evaporates into the intercellular air spaces and diffuses out through the stomata into the atmosphere. The diffusion of water from the plant into the

    Plant tissue culture is a widely used procedure in plant biology in which organism is planted from the explants of the living plants in a nutrient medium under aseptic conditions. There are both advantages and disadvantages of plant tissue culture. Advantages: 1. To produce many copies of the same plants then which may be used to produce plants with better flowers‚ odors‚ fruits or any other properties of the plants that are beneficial to the human beings. 2. To produce plants anytime we want

    diversity. From the coast to the mountains and the forests to the deserts‚ California is full of a wide array of plant life. California is the third largest state in the United States and thus has a major variation in climate resulting in the many plants found. Not only are there many plants found here‚ but many of those plants cannot be found anywhere else. There are also many nonnative plants that have become a part of the scenery in California. The best way to understand the state’s vegetation is to

    Photosynthesis: Plant cells vs. Solar Cells Chevon Allen 01/23/2010 SCI-115 Professor Garcia Photosynthesis and the semiconductor-based solar cell are very similar process with different ways of reaching the same goal. In photosynthesis‚ plant cells harness the solar energy of the sun with carbon dioxide to transform water molecules into hydrogen‚ oxygen‚ and electrons. Just like photosynthesis‚ Semi conductor based solar cells harness the solar energy of the sun for the same purposes

    What affect does fertilizer have on the rate of growth in plants over a certain period of time? When tested‚ there is no affect on the growth of plants from a change of an environmental factor‚ such as an exposure to fertilizer. By changing the independent variable (whether or not the plant was planted with fertilizer)‚ you are testing to see how the dependent variable would change (the growth of plants). In order to assure that there is no experimental error‚ a control must be kept to produce the
