ATP synthase complexes. Chlorophyll molecules use their energy to strip water molecules‚ and biological molecules then adding hydrogen to them. In prokaryotes instead of chloroplast they use their own cell membranes to do the job. Wavelength also has a role in photosynthesis because they have just the right amount of energy to excite chlorophyll electrons boosting them to a higher energy level. When summing everything up the reactants are carbon dioxide‚ water‚ and the suns energy and the process is

Three factors that influence the rate of photosynthesis can be adjusted in the simulator to determine how each of the factors affects the rate of photosynthesis.

The rate of photosynthesis in each of the beakers will depend what is wrapped around the beakers such as red and blue cellophane‚ as well as the control of the experiment the beaker without cellophane. The cellophane will directly impact the light getting absorbed as well as the amount of CO2 in the beakers. Which overall as result will determine the final color of the water mixed with bromothymol blue. What was being measured was the color of the water after CO2 has been blown in the beakers. The

Answers to Photosynthesis Practice AP Biology 1. Draw a picture of the chloroplast and label the stroma‚ thylakoid‚ thylakoid lumen (space)‚ inner membrane‚ outer membrane. 2. Using 18O as the basis of your discussion‚ explain how we know that the oxygen released in photosynthesis comes from water. When the oxygen in water has the radioactively labeled oxygen‚ the gas released from photosynthesis also has the labeled oxygen. This shows that the oxygen gas given off during photosynthesis comes from

Title: The success of photosynthesis in geranium leaves using visible light wavelengths obstructed by black paper‚ and red‚ blue‚ and green translucent filters. I. Abstract Photosynthesis is a process in which plants use light‚ water‚ and carbon dioxide to produce sugars‚ water and oxygen. Chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b‚ in the chloroplasts of a leaf‚ are responsible for absorbing wavelengths of light for use in photosynthesis with red and blue wavelengths being optimal. Testing

Abstract: The rate of photosynthesis and cellular respiration can change in varying conditions. How does the rate change with varying degrees of temperature and light exposure? To test this algae beads were exposed to a CO2 indicator‚ which changes colors based on the level CO2 level present. The algae beads were exposed to two different variables‚ light and temperature and tested for color change‚ Ph‚ level‚ and CO2 absorbance level. The beads were exposed to a light and a dark condition‚ and another

Objective To investigate the effect of carbon dioxide concentration on the rate of photosynthesis Introduction Photosynthesis is a process that is essential for every living organism. Organic substances‚ such as glucose‚ are made from carbon dioxide and water by light energy from the sun. The light energy is absorbed by chlorophyll and converted to chemical energy. During the process‚ oxygen is released as a by-product. The rate of photosynthesis is affected by a few of factors‚ including

rise‚ which will show us the optimal color of light for photosynthesis. These different colors of light included blue‚ red‚ green‚ fluorescent‚ regular light‚ and classroom light. The classroom light was our control cup during the lab. Before we conducted our experiment‚ the class learned about the photosynthetic process of‚ not only spinach discs‚ but plants in general. As I did more research on photosynthesis‚ the Calvin Cycle‚ wavelengths and pigments required for a proper equation of

Abstract: Two parts of this lab were performed involving photosynthesis and cellular respiration. The first part of the lab consisted of cutting out spinach leaf disks with a straw and then putting them into syringes containing an infiltration solution and sodium bicarbonate. Then the syringes were place under the presence of light and watched as certain disks floated. This part of the lab consisted of watching photosynthesis take place. Then for the second part of the lab we tested cellular respiration
