Carbon Dioxide And Water Organic Compounds
791 wordsHave you ever wondered why your plants in your house and outside lean towards the sun. In my project I hope to answer why this happens. I am going to be using lima beans to do this with. The Greek philosopher Aristotle may have been the first to attempt to explain the processes of photosynthesis and food production. He believed that plants could obtain from the soil all the components required for growth. The cycle was completed when organisms perished and became reincorporated into the soil. Th...

Amount Of Light Five Minute
482 wordsDetermining Rates of Photosynthesis Through Chloroplasts 2) Purpose = measure the rate of photosynthesis in chloroplasts. 3) The chloroplast will be subjected to two experimental conditions- light, and the absence of light, using a spectrophotometer to determine the amount of DPIP reduced at specific time intervals under each condition. 4) I predict the amount of DPIP reduced will vary for each condition and increase over the time intervals. I hypothesize under the light condition the amount of ...

Endoplasmic Reticulum Organic Molecules
1,136 words... m is used to breakdown glycogen to glucose. The endoplasmic reticulum is versatile and grows and shrinks according to the cell's activities. Chloroplasts which are found in plant cells are used in the process of photosynthesis. They fall into the category of plastids but they are differentiated in that they contain chlorophyll. These organelles produce chemical reactions from the energy that the sun gives them. The Golgi complex's structure is made up of many flattened membranes sacs that ar...

Blue Light Significant Difference
1,039 wordsThe Effects of Various Wavelengths on Photosynthetic Rate Photosynthesis is the process by which autotrophic organisms convert light energy to chemical energy in the form of glucose [ 1 ]. Without this process life on earth would be very different because every organism directly or indirectly depends on photosynthesis. Because plants are at the bottom of the food chain they must create their own energy; this is done through photosynthesis. Various pigments located through out the leaves and stem...

Plants And Animals Earths Rotation
849 wordsWhat is required for a planet to be able to support life? This is a question that people have been trying to answer for many years. Earth is a very unique planet because it is the only one proven to support life. Living organisms need certain things in order to survive that are not found on any other planet. Some of these life supporting features include food, water, atmosphere, temperature, rotation, gravity, surface and a moon. First, living things need a source of food. Energy is needed in or...

Carbon Dioxide Hydrogen Ions
1,424 wordsPhotosynthesis is the process by which organisms that contain the pigment chlorophyll convert light energy into chemical energy which can be stored in the molecular bonds of organic molecules. Photosynthesis powers almost all trophic chains and food webs on the Earth. The net process of photosynthesis is described by the following equation: 6 CO 2 + 6 H 2 O + Light Energy = C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6 O 2 This equation simply means that carbon dioxide from the air and water combine in the presence of sunli...

Infrared Light Blue Green
344 wordsThe Basics. Sunlight plays a much larger role in our sustenance than we may expect: all the food we eat and all the fossil fuel we use is a product of photosynthesis, which is the process that converts energy in sunlight to chemical forms of energy that can be used by biological systems. Photosynthesis is carried out by many different organisms, ranging from plants to bacteria (Figure 1). The best known form of photosynthesis is the one carried out by higher plants and algae, as well as by cyano...

H 2 O Carbon Dioxide
854 wordsColours Chloroplasts contain several different pigments the majority of which are chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b. Both of these types of chlorophyll absorb similar wavelengths of light, but chlorophyll a absorbs a slightly higher wavelength than chlorophyll b. Neither chlorophyll absorbs much light in the green region of the spectrum thus making it appear green. This can be plotted onto a graph (fig 1. 1). This graph is called the Absorption Spectrum. The Absorption Spectrum is very similar in ...
