1. Transpiration is critical for plant physiology. In your own words‚ what is transpiration‚ and why is this important in plants? (2 pts) Transpiration is the evaporation or loss of water through the pores (stomata) on the underside of leaves. Transpiration is vital to plants because it not only allows the plant to cool itself‚ but it also changes the osmotic pressure of cells allowing for nutrient transfer between cells‚ and between roots and stem. 2. Plants can respond to abiotic factors and

What is the scientific method ‚and how is the theory applied to fingerprint analysis? The complete friction ridge identification process involves using the "identification philosophy and scientific methodology" in determining whether or not an "unknown friction ridge impression"(herein‚ called latent) came from the same source as a "known inked print (herein called print)to the exclusion of all others. (1) David Ashbaugh refers to this identification process as‚ "a guide of how friction ridge quantative-qualititive

Question : Psychology follows the scientific method and is therefore considered as a science. Discuss Psychology is a science and therefore it follows the scientific method. The scientific method is a standardized way of making observations‚ gathering data‚ forming theories‚ testing predictions and interpreting results. This scientific method employs a set of rules that apply to a form of research that identifies cause and effect relations. This research is called an experiment and it consists

What is the Effect of the Colour of Light on the Rate of Photosynthesis? By Amelia Rowan‚ 12SDa Aim To discover whether the colour of the light source has any effect on the rate of photosynthesis of a sample of algae. Hypothesis It was predicted that the colour of the light source would have a very slight effect on the rate of photosynthesis. It was further predicted that when the sample was placed under the green light‚ the rate of photosynthesis would be the lowest. This hypothesis was arrived

Scientific Revolution – Documents Packet Primary and secondary documents are the backbone of historical research. Primary sources give us a first hand account of an event‚ while secondary sources give us a broader perspective on an event‚ given time‚ distance and new insight. As students of history‚ we must possess the ability to properly analyze a document in order to understand its value. This packet of documents relating to the “scientific revolution” of the 16th & 17th centuries is designed

rom 1924[-]32‚ an innovative series of research studies was funded by the Western Electric Company at its Hawthorne plant in Chicago‚ then a manufacturing division of AT&T. The plant was one of the oldest in operation and employed approximately 25‚000 of Western Electric’s 45‚000 workers. The research proceeded through five phases: (1) The initial Illumination studies (1924[-]27) were aimed at evaluating the effect of lighting conditions on productivity; (2) the Relay-assembly Room studies (August

Scientific Management Taylorism Frederick Winslow Taylor (1956-1915) observed in his role as a apprentice machinist that workers used different and mostly inneficient work methods. He also noticed that few machines ever worked at the speed of which they were capable. Also‚ the choice of methods of work were left at the discretion of the workers who wasted a large part of their efforts ussing inefficient and unstead rules-of-thumb. They kept they craft secrets to themselves (between the group

Women of the 18 century and Today Rodney Pittman Grantham University Women of the 18 century and Today The Scientific Revolution which occurred in the years 1550 to 1700‚ introduced the idea that the universe and everything in it worked accordingly to the laws of nature which were discovered by means of reason. The reasoning was straying away from previous thinking which entailed that God was the creator of the universe and had complete control over individual lives. Women have always
