Q

photosynthesis

A

is a chemical reaction which takes place in plants. converts carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen
it uses light energy from sun to power chemical reaction which is absorbed by the green pigment chlorophyll this means its endofermic whole reaction takes place inside chloroplast

Q

effect light intensity photosynthesis practicvle

A
  1. measure 20cm3 of sodium hydrogen carbonate solution pour into a boiling tube
  2. collect 10cm piece of pondweed and gently attach a paperclip to one end
  3. clam boiling tube ensuring you will be able to shine light into pomdweed
  4. place a metre rule next to clamp stand
  5. place lamp 10cm away from the pondweed
  6. wait two min until pondweed started to produce bubbles
  7. using stopwatch count the number of bubbles produced in a minuit
    8.repeate stages 5-7 moving lamp 10cm away
  8. repeat whole thing twice to ensure you have three readings for each distance

Q

oxygen debt

A

during vigorous exercise body carries out anarobic respiration produces lactic acid transported through bloodstreeme to liver liver converts to glucose oxygen needed for this reaction
