Elodea is a type of rooted plant with multiple branches (Elodea). Elodea is known as a weed located in parts of Australia, Africa, Asia and Europe, but is known to be popular in Washington’s lakes, ponds and rivers (Native Freshwater Plants, 1994). Photosynthesis involves light energy converting to sugar while respiration burns the sugars produced in photosynthesis in order to help the plant grow and reproduce (Whiting, 2014). The equation for photosynthesis is 6CO2+ 6H2O⇢C6H12O6+ 6O2. In other words, carbon dioxide, water and light are the reactants, and the products of photosynthesis are glucose and oxygen. Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplast of plant cells. Respiration differs from photosynthesis because the reactants of respiration
Lima bean number 1 germinated but did not thrive. My plant was a yellow color with few leaves. Though my plant was very tall it was weak and could be broken easily. The plants in uv light were of a dark green color whereas my plant was yellow. In addition the leaves of my plant were very small.
A hydrilla grows a long steam that has many leaves on it as well as tiny white flowers on them which float above the water. They are an aquatic plant which means they live in water such as clean water, including lakes, ponds, rivers, streams, and marshes. Seen mostly in the Southeast of Florida and in their habitat they form dense mats of vegetation, can grow with little light, and more efficent in taking nutrients than other species. Florida faces many problems within their water bodies and waterways. The aquatic plants pollute 96% of the public lakes and rivers.
+ ATP Although plants and animals have different methods of obtaining glucose, the cell respiration process occurs in both types of organisms. Many external factors in the environment may affect the organism's’ rate of respiration such as the temperature of the surrounding,
Quinn Nguyen Floating Leaf Disk Photosynthesis Lab Conclusion: Graph your results for all 3 trials on one graph. Label the graph, both axes, and provide a legend to distinguish each trial. What was the rate of photosynthesis for each variable? How many leaves floated per minute? Rate of photosynthesis (leaves/min) Spinach: (2-0)/25 = 0.08
The process of photosynthesis is vital for the survival of most life on Earth. Without photosynthesis plant life would be unable to create its own food and sustain themselves causing them to die. Earth would lack the oxygen and energy that plant life provides. Producers are the main source of energy for living organisms because they can directly absorb light energy and turn it into chemical energy. Animals then eat the plants which give them a portion of that energy.
Oxygenic phototrophs have chlorophyll pigments while anoxygenic phototrophs have bacteriochlorophyll pigments. Bacteriochlorophyll pigments absorb light at longer wavelengths compared to chlorophyll pigments. Bacteriochlorophyll and chlorophyll also have varying side groups on their structures. How do the reaction centers and photosystems differ between cyanobacteria and Chlorobi? Cyanobacteria have photosystems 1& 2 whereas Chlorobi only have photosystem 1.
1. A viruses is a non-living infection agent and can be found anywhere. it has no cell organelles. They are eliminated by the immune system. Viruses are the smallest in size of all the microbes.
As stated in the background of the lab, "seeds are considered to be in a period of dormancy, where they metabolize stored energy at a very slow rate while the seed is still considered alive" (Hands On Labs). During germination, the developing plant embryo uses the stored food supply in the seed for cellular energy and growth. Thus, cellular respiration is taking place as the seeds grow. Without water the seeds cannot begin germinating thus the seeds in test tube N did not undergo photosynthesis(Hands On Labs). B. Were the seeds in the “G” tube undergoing both photosynthesis and respiration, only photosynthesis, or only respiration?
The story was happened in 1906, at Oklahoma territory, near Tulsa. Oklahoma! was adapted from a play called Green Grow the Lilacs which was adapted from an old folksong called “Green Grow the Lilacs”. The story is about an American soldier’s love for a Mexican lass(senorita). The cowboys in south Texas loved sing the song and white Americans became known as “Gringo” by the Mexicans. Richard Charles Rogers was an American composer of music with more than 900 songs and 43 Broadway musicals.
photosynthesis and cellular respiration are extremely important in the cycle of energy to sustain life simply because nutrients would not metabolize in a productive manner. Both have numerous stages in which the process of energy occurs, and relationships with organelles located in the eukaryotic cell. Photosynthesis is a process by which green plant and other organism manufacture their food using sunlight to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water while cellular respiration is the oxidation of organic compounds that occurs within cells, producing energy for cellular processes. Photosynthesis occurs within organelles called chloroplasts. These organelles can absorb light, and are located inside of leaves.
The carbon is used in the photosynthesis formula Carbon dioxide (CO2) + Water (H2O) + Energy ➡Glucose (C6H12O6) + Oxygen (O2) to create food such as glucose. Photosynthesis extracts carbon from both land and water plants. The water plants take the carbon dioxide that is found in water whereas the land plants take it from the air.
The water moves up the roots against gravity through the dead xylem cells without the assistance of a pump. Water is absorbed by the plant through the roots through the process of osmosis, which then exits the plant through the openings of the leaves, known as the stomata. Water is able to move up the roots of the plants by cohesion and adhesion. This is an important process that plants must go through in order to obtain H+ ions from the water which are required to perform photosynthesis.
Algae and autotrophs carry out oxygen there for generating photosynthesis, and then they use the
Introduction Plants are a major necessity in the balance of nature, people’s lives, and our terrain. We may not realize it, but plants are the ultimate source of food for almost 95% of the world population so says the National Group of Food. It’s a fact that over 7,000 species of plants are being consumed today. Plants are one of the reasons that we get clean water; as they help regulate the water cycle.
This type of cytokinesis only takes place in higher plants, while in the lower plants a form of cleavage cytokinesis takes place, Figure 2, ("Difference between Cytokinesis in Plant and Animal Cells,"
