Photosynthesis Virtual Labs
The greater the light intensity the faster the rate of photosynthesis.
Based on your data, draw a conclusion regarding how light intensity affects the rate of photosynthesis.
The lower the temperature the lower the rate of photosynthesis.
Based on your data, how does a decrease in temperature affect the rate of photosynthesis?
The higher the temperature the lower the rate of photosynthesis.
Based on your data, how does an increase in temperature affect the rate of photosynthesis?
The higher the amount of CO2 the faster the rate of photosynthesis.
Based on your data, how does the amount of available CO2 affect the rate of photosynthesis?
They get water from the the roots then up the stem through tubes to the leaves. They get CO2 through open pores in the leaves.
How is the plant able to obtain each "ingredient?"
Chloroplast
Identify the plant cell organelle in which photosynthesis takes place.
light chemical
Photosynthesis converts _________________ energy into the ____________________ energy of sugars and other organic compounds.
food
Plants use photosynthesis to make __________________ for the plant.
The chlorophyll absorbs solar energy. Then a chemical reaction changes H2O and CO2 into sugar and O2.
Summarize the process of photosynthesis. Water and carbon enter the chloroplast.....
light
What do plants need in order to perform photosynthesis?
It is released into the air.
What happens to the oxygen that is produced as a result of photosynthesis?
6CO2 + 6H2O------------------>6(CH20) + 6O2
What is the chemical equation for photosynthesis?
212
When the Light Distance was at 100 (cm), about how many bubbles where there per minute?
148
When the Light Distance was at 120 (cm), about how many bubbles where there per minute?
54
When the Light Distance was at 150 (cm), about how many bubbles where there per minute?
48
When the Light Distance was at 180 (cm), about how many bubbles where there per minute?
20
When the Light Distance was at 200 (cm), about how many bubbles where there per minute?
a. Temperature: 25°C b. Light: 50 c. CO2: increased
Which combination of settings produced the highest number of bubbles per minute?
We breathe the O2 that is released and get energy from fruits and vegetables that were produced by plants.
Why is photosynthesis also important for people and animals?
16
With the thermometer set to 10°C, light intensity of 20, and increased CO2, what were your bubbles per minute?
32
With the thermometer to 25°C (Room Temperature) and the light intensity to 20, what were the bubbles per minute at this setting?
48
With the thermometer to 25°C (Room Temperature), the light intensity to 20 and increased carbon dioxide, what were your bubbles per minute?
40
With the thermometer to 40°C, the light intensity to 20 and increased carbon dioxide, what were your bubbles per minute?
