Benjamin Kleveland 502 October 26‚ 2014 Lab 7 Report Lights Distance and Wavelength Effect on Photosynthesis Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are often mistaken as the same thing. Although they are similar in many ways‚ photosynthesis and cellular respiration are the exact opposite of each other. Not figuratively‚ but literally the reverse (Photosynthesis). They incorporate the others products while adding some outside energy to create a never ending cycle. This brings us to the photochemical

the relationship of different wavelengths of light and the rate of photosynthesis in spinach leafs. The rate of photosynthesis was measured every five min under light colors of white‚ green‚ red‚ blue and yellow under a light intensity of 2000 lux. The rate of photosynthesis was measured by the spinach disk method in which we replaced the air from the disks with sodium bicarbonate using a vacuum. Under photosynthesis‚ oxygen‚ a product of photosynthesis‚ replaced the bicarbonate solution‚ made the

Light I | | INTRODUCTION | Light‚ form of energy visible to the human eye that is radiated by moving charged particles. Light from the Sun provides the energy needed for plant growth. Plants convert the energy in sunlight into storable chemical form through a process called photosynthesis. Petroleum‚ coal‚ and natural gas are the remains of plants that lived millions of years ago‚ and the energy these fuels release when they burn is the chemical energy converted from sunlight. When animals digest

Fermented Santol (Sandoricum koetjape) As a Vinegar Introduction Background of the Study Vinegar is a versatile liquid that results from the fermentation of ethanol. The key ingredient of vinegar is acetic acid‚ which gives it an acidic taste. While there may be additions of other kinds of acid like tartaric acid and citric acid‚ the typical pH of vinegar ranges anywhere from 2 to 3.5‚ although the store-bought kind usually measures 2.4. In food preparation procedures‚ it is a multi-purpose product

use a process called photosynthesis to covert energy from the sun into energy they can use for their activities. The plant’s chloroplasts‚ along with water‚ carbon dioxide‚ and light are the essential elements required for photosynthesis to take place. The “photo” part of photosynthesis is in reference to the fact that the process requires light. The simplest form of the photosynthesis equation is: H2O + CO2 ----light----> (CH2O)N + O2 As shown in the equation‚ photosynthesis produces carbohydrates

Based on the prompt above‚ “Investigate how light and darkness contribute to the cycling of carbon through both cellular respiration and photosynthesis of a plant” we devised a hypothesis that states‚ If we place the two test tube‚ one with carbonated water and the other regular water‚ with the Elodea inside a dark environment it will perform cellular respiration as it will not receive enough light energy to perform photosynthesis. From the result of our experiment we found that the test tube with

Factors Affecting Photosynthesis Low light intensity lowers the rate of photosynthesis. As the intensity is increased the rate also increases. However‚ after reaching an intensity of 10‚000 lux (lux is the unit for measuring light intensity) there is no effect on the rate. Very high intensity may‚ in fact‚ slow down the rate as it bleaches the chlorophyll. Normal sunlight (usually with an intensity of about 100‚000 lux) is quite sufficient for a normal rate of photosynthesis. Open and Closed

Photosynthesis is the process of converting light energy to chemical energy and storing it in the bonds of sugar. This process occurs in plants and some algae (Kingdom Protista). Plants need only light energy‚ CO2‚ and H2O to make sugar. The process of photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplasts‚ specifically using chlorophyll‚ the green pigment involved in photosynthesis. Photosynthesis takes place primarily in plant leaves‚ and little to none occurs in stems‚ etc. The parts of a typical leaf

Factors Limiting Photosynthesis The rate of photosynthesis increases with increasing light intensity. But too much light intensity can slow down the rate of photosynthesis because the light damages chloroplasts in the leaf. The higher the temperature the greater the rate of photosynthesis as photosynthesis is a chemical reaction and chemical reactions increase with temperature. But at temperatures above 40 C the rate slows down because the enzymes involved are destroyed

explain to you why photosynthesis is bad while helping Earth too. I will be giving you a few reasons to explain that photosynthesis is important. So even though photosynthesis can kill the plant‚ photosynthesis is important‚ because it helps grow food for omnivores and herbivores. Photosynthesis grows plants and trees‚ which produce clean‚ fresh oxygen. Photosynthesis helps us living organisms with lungs breathe. It helps us when plants go through the process called photosynthesis. During this process
