to 28 degrees the slope of the line increases and shows a slight curve. The rate of evaporation increases with temperature since transpiration is a cooling mechanism to release heat. More stomata open as temperature increases as this allows a faster transpiration rate. Although‚ at much higher temperatures‚ plants close stomata to prevent excess water loss. b. The increasing humidity causes reduced transpiration rates. This is because atmosphere is saturated with water vapor and so not much can

Homeostasis of BP and Heart Rate A normal blood pressure can be identified by having a systolic pressure of around 120 and a diastolic pressure of around 80. This value is expressed as "120/80". A normal heart rate is expressed as the amount of times it beats in a minute; a normal adult heart rate is between 60-100 beats per minute (BPM). There is a relation between these two measurements‚ but they are stimulated by several different circumstances. The blood pressure is mainly affected

Biology Assignment Transpiration rates between Exotic vs. Native plants In this investigation we will be looking at transpiration. The topic we will be focusing on is transpiration rates between native plants as well as exotic plants. We will be experimenting with 2 native plants as well as 2 exotic plants. The reason we are experimenting on this topic is because of Australia’s dry weather‚ we are wanting to find out which plants will be able to hold more water during Australia’s peaking tempretures
