Plan I plan to investigate how light intensity affects the rate of photosynthesis in pondweed. The rate of photosynthesis will be measured by the number of bubbles given off (considering that oxygen is produced as a waste gas during photosynthesis). The light intensity is measured by the distance between the lamp and pondweed. Fair test: Fix: the amount of pondweed‚ the amount of water and sodium hydrogen carbonate solution in the test tube‚ the time allowed for each experiment Change: the

* Red light cameras cause more traffic accidents. The majority of studies and reports done on red light cameras have shown an increase in crashes. The results show an average of a 27% increase in crashes and a 21% increase in injury crashes after red light cameras are installed. These are caused by drivers having to slam on their brakes due to the known presence of the device at an intersection. * Red Light Cameras are used primarily for profit. Most cities use these systems to fund large portions

known as photosynthesis. When photosynthesis is functioning as it should‚ in its fullest capacity‚ all organisms benefit from it in some way. Furthermore‚ scientists aim to better understand the photosynthetic process to help enhance the efficiency and quality of life on Earth. By fully understanding the function of photosynthesis‚ some environmental adjustments can then be made to refine the photosynthetic process. In this lab specifically (Lab No. 7)‚ we isolated specific color wavelengths and recorded

Background Theory Photosynthesis: Plants require water from the soil‚ sunlight and carbon dioxide found in the atmosphere for growth and development. In the process of photosynthesis‚ carbon dioxide and water – in the presence of chlorophyll and light energy – are converted into sugar and oxygen‚ which is given off as a by-product. Generally‚ as sunlight increases in intensity‚ the rate of photosynthesis also increases [1]. This means greater food production within the plant. Many garden vegetables
