myself about the effects of light intensity‚ representing the three seasons of summer‚ spring‚ autumn and winter‚ on the transpiration rate of mangrove shoots. Abstract: The overall aim of this report was the conduct an experiment based how different light intensity levels‚ representing the four seasons in a year: summer‚ spring‚ autumn and winter‚ affects the transpiration rate in a mangrove plant. To do this we had to set the 4 different beakers at different lengths apart‚ each beaker (from

Title: Rate of transpiration I found interesting to know how different environmental factors affect the rate of transpiration. There are different environmental factors‚ such as light intensity‚ humidity‚ wind and temperature that affect the rate of transpiration. Transpiration is a topic 9 in our Biology higher level book. I have read all the information through this chapter and researched some extra information. Based on this information that I had known I decided to take experiment of environmental

Title: Transpiration Aim: To study the significance of the pattern of stomatal distribution in Coleus and Lucky bamboo leaf Theory: Transpiration is the loss of water vapour from the surface of the plants due to evaporation. Transpiration can help the uptake of water in the xylem due to transpiration pull. During transpiration‚ mesophyll cells lose water continuously to the air space. This decreases the water potential of the mesophyll cells. Water is then drawn from their neighbouring cells

the leaves of the marram grass roll up to form long tubes. This helps drain any water down towards the roots of the plant. Match the adaptations of the marram grass leaves with their function Waxy Cuticle Reduce water loss through transpiration Stomata sunk in pits Trap a layer of moist air close to the leaf surface Leaf

set out to examine the different transpiration rates of a plant system in certain environments. Water is transported in a plant by the process of transpiration‚ which is the loss of water through evaporation from the surface of leaves. The stomata in leaves are responsible for the diffusion of water vapor. Transpiration brings water upward through the xylem in the plant. There are certain factors that can affect transpiration rates in plants. Most transpiration is boosted with the help of leaves

Fenland Celery: The Winter Asparagus We could all be forgiven by thinking that celery is celery‚ but in fact the main crop of celery in the UK stops being grown around October depending on the (currently very unseasonal) weather. The frosts would destroy a normal crop grown by normal methods. So how does Fenland Celery manage to be grown right up until the end of the year? Indeed this year it could be until mid-January. We’ve taken a look at this heritage crop‚ which sees its origins at Christmas
