Investigations Flashcards
Aim of path of water inv?
to investigate which tissue is responsible for upward movement of water in plant.
result of path of water inv?
xylem was stained darker red than other tissues. control had no stains.
conclusion of path of water inv?
Xylem is tissue responsible for upward water movement in dicot plants
Aim of factors and transpiration inv?
To investigate the effect of temp, humidity and wind on the rate of transpiration in dicot plants.
method and results of factors and transpiration inv?
wind: fan=fast air bubble
Temp: heater= fast air bubble
Humidity: plastic bag over leaves= slower air bubble
Conclusion of factors and transpiration inv?
heat and wind increase transpiration
humidity decrease transpiration
factors that increase rate of evaporation increase rate of transpiration.
