Light Intensity and the Rate of Photosynthesis
Read the Fine Print
Rating
0.0 stars

In this inquiry-based lab, students will construct an experimental setup to compare the rate of photosynthesis to the rate of respiration. This will make it possible to perform a quantitative analysis of the rate of photosynthesis under different light intensities.

Making a Root Move Through a Maze
Read the Fine Print
Rating
0.0 stars

In this activity, students make the root of a seedling grow through a maze by rotating a petri dish to different angles. When a seed germinates, a root and a shoot appear. Their directional movements are a response to gravity or gravitropism. Primary roots show positive gravitropism as they grow toward gravity.

Microscale Investigations of Catalase Activity in Plant Extracts
Read the Fine Print
Rating
0.0 stars

Students demonstrate how different plant materials show different amounts of catalase activity - and the most metabolically active tissues show the greatest activity. The procedure can be used to show differences in activity in imbibed and germinating seeds and in damaged or decaying plant material.
