Investigation of Photosynthesis in Pond weed
Prediction: I predict that the closer the lamp is to the plant the photosynthesis will be greater.
Hypothesis: My prediction is based upon the fact that the closer the lamp is to the plant, the more light will get to it, so more of the plants surface area will be in contact with the light. If this is so, the plant will produce more glucose and oxygen.
Photosynthesis is where a plant respires. A plant will take in light, water and carbon dioxide and produces glucose and oxygen. The glucose is used by the plant as food and the oxygen is put back into the environment. So, photo synthesis is very important in the environment otherwise there would be no way of recycling the carbon dioxide waste product from animals back into the useable gas of oxygen.
