Water Transport in Plants Introduction In this lab experiment‚ we set out to examine the different transpiration rates of a plant system in certain environments. Water is transported in a plant by the process of transpiration‚ which is the loss of water through evaporation from the surface of leaves. The stomata in leaves are responsible for the diffusion of water vapor. Transpiration brings water upward through the xylem in the plant. There are certain factors that can affect transpiration

Plants Organs As was noted in the previous chapter‚ most plant cells are specialized to a greater or lesser degree‚ and arranged together in tissues. A tissue can be simple or complex depending upon whether it is composed of one or more than one type of cell. Tissues are further arranged or combined into organs that carry out life functions of the organism. Plant organs include the leaf‚ stem‚ root‚ and reproductive structures. The first three are sometimes called the vegetative

IB Biology HL Y1 15 January 2009 The Effect of Humidity on Transpiration in Plants Problem/Aim How does placing a plant in a more humid location for 50 minutes affect its rate of transpiration? Introduction Transpiration is the loss of water from a plant‚ mainly through the stomata of leaves. Darkness‚ internal water deficit‚ and extremes of temperature tend to close stomata and decrease transpiration; illumination‚ ample water supply‚ and optimum temperature cause stomata to open and increase

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

effects of caffeine on plants are not as well developed. Many experiments were done on the effects of caffeine on plants yet; scientists are still confused on the topic. Plants are an important aspect of the ecosystem. Water‚ sunlight‚ and rich soil are all key elements of plant growth and development. Balance is an important concept in plant growth‚ too much or too little water is harmful to plant. Water helps the plant by giving it key nutrients. Without water the plant becomes physically weak

Thursday‚ October 4th‚ 2012 Tuesday‚ October 9th‚ 2012 Comparing Plant and Animal Cells Abstract The purpose of our lab was to have a better understanding of what are the differences between animal cells and plant cells. Although the cell is the basic unit in both living beings they are not completely alike. For that I have examined and compared human cheek cells to Elodea leaf cells. First‚ I’ve scraped the inside of my cheek with the end of a swab stick to collect the cells then I’ve prepared
