PPT-Making the most of Photosynthesis

How do farmers maximise the growth of their plants Starter Farming Rags to Riches How could this farmer Get to this point Success criteria I can name techniques famers use to grow crops. Lab. 5: Photosynthesis. Lab. 5: Photosynthesis. Leaves float in water due to presence of air (air spaces) in the leaf. . How does one get them to sink?. Lab. 5: Photosynthesis. Put leaf discs under vacuum . Bryanna Wolfe. ECE 2320. October 2012. Start Here. Objective:. . When you get hungry you might decide to raid the cookie jar or ask your mom to make you a sandwich. You do this because humans and animals get energy from the foods they eat. Photosynthesis. OB48. Describe, using a word equation, how plants make their own food through photosynthesis.  . OB49. Show that starch is produced by a photosynthesising plant.  . OB50. Investigate the growth response of plants to . 1. ENERGY AND LIFE. OBJECTIVES: 8.1. Explain where plants get the energy they need to produce food.. Describe the role of ATP (adenosine . triphosphate. ) in cellular activities.. 2. Energy is the ability to do work.. Leaf Disc Assay. F Block. Photosynthesis Lab. . An Educational Slide Created By Squade. . (Andy, Alex, Colin, Jordyn). Summary of Findings . In this lab, the effects of plant photosynthesis were investigated by comparing the rates of photosynthesis of two plants, spinach and kale. The rate of photosynthesis was measured the number of leaf cutouts on the surface per minute. These floating leaf cutouts show that oxygen, a product of photosynthesis is produced. We found that the rate of photosynthesis for the spinach leaves was 8.6 cutouts per minutes, 1.4 less than that of the kale leaves (10 cutouts per minute.) This difference could be a result the different amounts of light absorbing chlorophyll present in each leaf, or a difference in vascular tissue sizes, which may affect the plant’s ability to absorb water for photosynthesis.. Unit 3 . Think back to Energy Transfer…. Living things use energy for . Growth. Repair. Reproduction. Metabolism. The collection of reactions that occur in a cell . Metabolism. Involves either:. . Why Study Photosynthesis?. *All food webs start with photosynthesis!*. Photosynthesis is arguably the most important biological process on earth because of two key chemical reactions.

Oxygen is a by-product (leftover, waste product). Energy now stored in the sugar. And Respiration of Plants. By: Annette Miles. Photosynthesis is a process by which plants turn energy from the ____ into _______ or _______________. . sun. glucose. carbohydrates. First, _______________ strikes the leaf, passes into the leaf, and hits a ______________ inside an individual cell. . Photosynthesis . process used by plants using light energy to create sugar (glucose, C. 6. H. 12. O. 6. ) from carbon dioxide (CO. 2. ) and water (H. 2. O). oxygen gas (. O. 2. ) is produced as a waste product and the light energy used is stored as chemical energy.
