Investigation To Measure How Temperature Affects The Rate Of Photosynthesis In Water Plants
Photosynthesis is the method by which plants make oxygen and food (glucose).
This is the equation for photosynthesis;
Sunlight
Carbon Dioxide + Water Glucose + Oxygen
Chlorophyll
OR
Sunlight
6CO2 + 6H2O C6H12O6 + 6O2
Chlorophyll
Four things that affect the speed of photosynthesis in plants are;
- Concentration of Carbon Dioxide
- Light Intensity
- Temperature
- Amount of Water
If any one of these factors is not present then photosynthesis will not happen or will happen slower.
Trial Experiment
In order for us to check that we can do the experiment in this way we will conduct a trial experiment.
