Experimental Design Bio 1110 ! ! Background: Plants need water to survive. Water makes up 80-95% of the mass in plant tissues. Transpiration is the loss of water from plants in vapor form. 95% of the water is absorbed from the soil for transpiration and 5% is absorbed during photosynthesis for producing necessary carbohydrates for growth. The rate of transpiration is dependent on the amount of water in which is available within the plant‚ soil‚ and on sufficient energy to vaporize water

Why did plants exposed to no light grow better than the plants exposed to light? The plants exposed to no light performed better than those exposed to light is most likely caused by the plants exposed to no light having more water than those in light. Even though the amount and frequency of water added to all plants were kept the same‚ the amount of water the plants in no light had access to was more than the amount of water the plants in light had. This is due to two reasons: a) because the plants

we should learn about something new and difficult. A problem this plant faces is‚ it’s one of the world’s most endangered plant. It was found because it was a juvenile plant and it has been non-existent and last seen since 2003. The Cyanea Kuhihewa died because of a hurricane in Hawaii that impacted Kauai. Scientist are trying to create a genetic version of the plant but it will be a very hard process. The botanic garden grows plants that are all offspring of the same parent. In my opinion‚ you can’t

FIXING PEA PLANTS (Pisum sativum) ON GROWTH OF CORN (Zea mays) Introduction Interactions among plant species‚ particularly negative ones‚ have been a concern in agriculture (Levene 1926‚ Russell 1961). Novoa (1981) suggested that it would be advantageous to rotate certain crops by season‚ grow certain crops together‚ or avoid growing certain crops on the same land. Observations indicated that some crops require specific types of nutrients in contrast to other crop species‚ and plants within

building of coal-fired power plant in Aborlan‚ Palawan has swiftly been a controversy. Environmental organizations and the residents of Aborlan have strongly opposed the said proposal. Why? What makes them oppose such power plant? But first of all‚ what is coal? Coal‚ which is the most abundant fossil fuel‚ is a combustible black or brownish-black sedimentary rock usually occurring in rock strata in layers or veins called coal beds or coal seams. Coal-fired power plant converts heat energy of combustion

Describe five specific situations where pest and disease control measures are required: Vineweevil: This is an insect that attacks a wide range of plants‚ both indoors and outdoors‚ but can be especially damaging to container plants. He needs to be controlled otherwise he will kill the plant. Adult weevils eat plant leaves during spring and summer‚ its the grubs in autumn winter attack the roots of the plants‚ plants growing

Fast Plants Material and Methods When first preparing our fast plants we had to set up four different systems that would dictate our variable of fluorescent light. Each system would provide light to our fast plants for different amounts of time per day. Our systems were set up for 0 hours of light‚ 6 hours of light‚ 12 hours of light‚ and 24 hours of light. To setup the lab we began to setup our lighting system with fluorescent a timer for each set of fast plants. Our 24 hours was set up in

The Effect of Watering on the Plant Growth 1. Problem/Question: Sarah observes the small garden in their house. She ask her mother why are the plants needed water but it has fertilized already. Their plants aren’t grow . So she decided to experiment on what is the effect of watering on plant growth. 2. Observation/Research: She water them every day‚ they have good soil‚ and they’re in the shade. 3. Formulate a Hypothesis: Sarah think plants will grow better if they’re in the sun
