We can see through the results that there isn’t a normal proportional relationship between the wavelength of the light and the rate of photosynthesis and instead it starts relatively high then decreases and increases again. The colour red gives the highest rate of photosynthesis (89 bubbles per minute) with blue giving the second highest rate of photosynthesis (70 bubbles per minute)‚ and yellow giving the third highest rate of photosynthesis (64 bubbles per minute) and green with by far the least

Introduction Photosynthesis is the process that plants use to convert light energy into chemical energy. The reactants of photosynthesis include carbon dioxide (CO2)

Biology lab: measuring the effect of light intensity on plant growth Aim: Investigate the effect of light intensity on plant growth Hypothesis: Light intensity will have an effect on plant growth. With an increase in light intensity there will be plant growth at a faster rate in comparison to when the light intensity is low where plant growth is limited and will take place slowly. When there’s too much light intensity‚ the light intensity will no longer become a limiting factor. A limiting

out how light intensity can affect the rate of photosynthesis. Hypothesis I think that the further away the light source is the smaller the rate of photosynthesis is. This is because there is a further distance for the light to each the plant in order for it to photosynthesise. Although the closer the light source is‚ the more photosynthesis‚ the light source could also kill or damage the Elodea (type of pondweed) because it could become too hot and denature its cells. But because light intensity

In conclusion‚ one can determine how photosynthesis is impacted by light intensity through the experimentation on ivy leaf disks in a bicarbonate solution. The function of the sodium bicarbonate in this experiment was to provide a sufficient amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) for the photosynthesis process to occur. Without CO2 or any of the other necessary reactants‚ glucose nor oxygen cannot be produced. The leaves rise and sink due to photosynthesis occurring in the plant cells. As the carbon from

In the book‚ All the Light We Cannot See‚ by Anthony Doerr‚ many of the characters stories can seem fascinating to the modern reader. Marie’s story deals with her blindness‚ and how her father attempts to assist her by making a model of the neighborhood they used to live in‚ making puzzle boxes for her to solve on her birthdays‚ and even traveling with her on his back through the French countryside to Saint-Malo when the Germans attacked their town. Werner’s story‚ which is quite fascinating‚ deals

many variables that could affect the rate of photosynthesis and the net consumption of carbon dioxide. In this experiment‚ the effects of how the intensity of light energy affected photosynthesis were observed. Two pieces of elodea was placed into separate beakers and one of the beakers was placed under a bulb of lower intensity and the other beaker being placed under a higher intensity bulb. The results showed that the beaker under the higher intensity light energy had a higher consumption of carbon

experiment was to determine the wavelength and light intensity effect on the reaction rate of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the conversion of light energy to chemical energy in the form of organic compounds. There are two phases in photosynthesis‚ the light reaction and dark reaction. The following experiment tested only the light reaction. Photosynthesis takes place on the chloroplast‚ and the chloroplast contains chlorophyll pigments which absorb light energy. Pigments are particular to different

changing light intensity on the rate of photosynthesis. What is Photosynthesis? Photosynthesis is how plants get their food. The reason why plants have leaves‚ roots or being green is all linked to photosynthesis. In photosynthesis‚ a plant takes carbon dioxide from the air and water from the soil and uses the light from sunlight to turn them into food. Photosynthesis occurs only in the presence of light‚ and takes place in the chloroplasts of green plant cells. Photosynthesis can be defined
