Osmosis and Diffusion Lab
a as the demonstration, by putting objects in different concentrations of a substance; in this case elodea leaves in salt water. In both cases, the objects in a greater concentration of the substance ... part of this lab was observing osmosis under real life conditions with actual cells. Five different Elodea leaves were placed on microscope slides, and added to each one was a different concentration ...

How does light intensity affect the rate of photosynthesis?
re slowly.I think that as we move the lamp away (and therefore reduce the light intensity) from the elodea pondweed the number of bubbles produced will decrease steadily. For instance, say at 10cm dis ... ween 0-50°C, but then it should decrease dramatically from 50-100°C.PlanApparatus*desk lamp*Elodea pondweed x 2*boiling tube x 2*paperclip x 2*250ml glass beaker x 2*test tube rack*thermometer ...

Ultimately, different wavelengths of light have significant affec ... s of different wavelengths of light on an organism. First, you need to submerge seven equally sized elodea plants completely in different beakers of the same amounts of water. Then, shine one color of ...
