Photosynthesis 2 - Oxidation of Water Lab Flashcards
independent variable
amount of chloroplast added
dependent variable
rate that water is oxidized at of DPIP
what does water split into
O2 and H+
oxidation
loss of electrons
reduction
gain of electrons
is NADP+ reduced or oxidized
oxidized
if DPIP is oxidized
it stays blue
if DPIP is reduced
it becomes clear
what color wavelength does DPIP reflect
blue wavelength
kind of relationship between the rate of reaction (y) and mL of chloroplast (x)
direct relationship
chloroplast causes the reaction to have an increase in
H2O oxidation
what played a factor in absorbence
light & heat
did light or heat have a larger role in driving the reaction?
light
what did the blank receive and others did not
bisulfide
what did the bisulfide do?
it made the blank clear
