Name: Laboratory Reflection: Plant Transpiration (Part 2) Instructions: Make sure to scroll through the entire document to answer all questions. It would also help with grading if you put your typed answers in a different (but readable) color font . Save and upload your completed assignment to the associated assignment page on Canvas. It is the student’s responsibility to confirm that the correct file was submitted to Canvas by the due date. 1. (.5pts) Transfer the data you collected on page 6 of your laboratory protocol packet to the tables below (type in your values). Vial # Treatment Initial mass (g) Final mass (g) Change in mass (g) Transpiration rate (g/day) 1 Sun 58.673g 33.123g 25.550g 3.65g/day 2 Sun 59.387g 49.321g 10.066g 1.438g/day 3 Sun 60.702g 31.713g 28.989g 1.141 g/day 4 Sun 58.515g 45.661g 12.854g 1.836 g/day 5 Sun 60.999g 58.526g 2.473g 0.353 g/day 6 Sun 60.387g 55.865g 4.522g 0.646 g/day 7 Sun 58.015g 55.463g 2.522g 0.365 g/day 8 Sun 60.539g 58.434g 2.105g 0.301 g/day 2. (4pts) Create a graph that accurately illustrates the results from your plant transpiration experiment. Your graph must include all relevant elements, including a figure caption. Your 1
caption should describe the graph, include a brief description of the experimental design (~1 sentence), and a results statement that includes your statistical findings (see hint below on how to do this). If needed, see additional resources linked within the assignment page on canvas. [Insert your graph and caption here] Transpiration Rates of Corn Red: Exposed to Sunlight Green: Control (No Sunlight) There was a significant difference in the transpiration rates (g/day) between plants that were exposed to sunlight and those that were not (t=3.5136, df=6, p=0.0126). 3. (2pts) What do your experimental results tell you about transpiration rates in corn? In other words, what do your findings suggest regarding the impact of the environmental condition 2 Note on figure captions: A complete figure contains both an image and a caption. Together, these two parts should provide enough information that a reader can understand the data presented without referring to the text. A figure caption should contain a concise description of the graphic allowing a reader to understand the figure.
