    then used the chlorophyll extract we originally prepared and painted this on a chromatography strip. We measured the band distances to find out the number of pigments in the spinach leaf. These processes helped emphasize how the chloroplast pigment extract and chloroplast membrane suspension have different functional capabilities and how photosynthesis works. Methods: This photosynthesis

    INTRODUCTION Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water. The photosynthesis process and their capability of producing organic materials from CO2 is having a big influence in the biosphere. The process of photosynthesis generates the plants to take two inorganic substances, CO2 and water, and also light, and remodel their atoms to make the organic compounds on which life depends: (McGraw-Hill) Light

    All organisms on earth depend on photosynthesis, in which light energy is used to make sugar and other food molecules from carbon dioxide and water. For example, plants and other photo-synthesizers need only energy from sunlight, carbon dioxide from air, and water from the soil to make the sugar glucose. Photosynthesis is the most important chemical process on earth because it provides food for virtually all organisms, not only for photo-synthesizers but for the organisms that eat them. Plants can

    Photosynthesis is a process that plans protistans and some bacteria, use energy from the sun to create sugar. Cellular respiration turns into ATP which is fuel used by all living things. The transformation of sunlight energy into chemical energy, also goes along with the same process as green pigment chlorophyll. The photosynthetic process mostly uses water and releases the oxygen that is mandatory for us humans must have to live. The two stages connected with Photosynthesis are called

    Introduction: Photosynthesis is the process that converts carbon dioxide into sugars, such as glucose, using energy from the sun and other lights. When light is absorbed by the pigments in the leaf, the energy absorbed is used to incorporate the carbon dioxide into organic molecules in a process called carbon fixation. The equation for photosynthesis in words is carbon dioxide + water (light energy) → Glucose + Oxygen. In numbers it is 6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2. This lab used leaf disks to evaluate

    Inhibition of Direct Light affects Elodea’s CO2 production during Photosynthesis Diana Monyancha Sydney Censullo, Monica Mendoza, Saul Longoria Biology 1441 Section 014; Audra Andrew; October 02, 2015 Elodea Canadensis, also referred to as American waterweed or common elodea, is an aquatic plant that is usually found in lakes, ponds or even rivers. Elodea helps support aquatic life such as young fish and amphibians by providing shelter and can be consumed as food by ducks and beavers. Elodea, like

    Photosynthesis is a process in plants, algae, and some prokaryotes, that coverts solar insulation into chemical energy stored in glucose or other organic compounds. Photosynthesis occurs in slightly different ways in higher plants relative to photosynthetic bacteria. Photosynthesis is an important process because it harnesses the sun's energy into utilizable forms of energy on earth. Most biological organisms such as animals and fungi are unable to directly use light energy to power biological processes

    Light On Photosynthesis

    • 551 Words
    • 3 Pages

    This lab allowed the experimenters to understand the effect of light on the producer’s photosynthesis. Once understanding how the light dependent reactions of photosynthesis worked, the experimenters can make predictions on how the light will affect the photosynthesis. For example, a low amount of light will affect the light dependent reactions of photosynthesis because light is essential for those reactions. The question the experimenters asked was, “Does having more or less exposure to light cause

    Claim Photosynthesis has changed the Earth in many different ways including causing The Great Oxygenation, causing the first ice age, and creating aerobic life. What Is Photosynthesis? Photosynthesis is how the first oxygen came to Earth. For photosynthesis to happen there has to be three key elements present; water, carbon dioxide, and sunlight. Plants capture sunlight using chlorophyll as stated in http://www.ducksters.com/science/photosynthesis.php, “Plants capture sunlight using a compound

    Water quality describes the condition of the H¬2¬O, including chemical, physical, and biological characteristics. The water quality test that are generally carried out are pH, turbidity, temperature, dissolved oxygen, dissolved phosphate and nitrate. Dissolved oxygen refers to the level of free present in H¬2¬O. It is an important parameter in assessing water quality because of its influence on the organisms living within a body of H¬2¬O. Dissolved oxygen is oxygen gas molecules (O2) present in
