Topic 7 - Omosis and Transpiration in Plant.

 Topic 7: Omosis and Transpiration.

Task 1 

Photosynthesis - Food

Co2 + H20 Sunlight Sugar + o2 

Source of carbon - humans & animals 

Roots absorb water

Phloem is a special type of cell to distribute food/sugar to different parts of a plant. 

Stomata are tiny pores on leaves to help absorb Co2 

Celeri & Food Colouring Experiment:

See water movement from roots to the leaves through xylem. 

Supplies for experiment:

1. Celeri

2. Water

3. Conical flask

4. Food Colouring

Method: 

Fill a Conical Flask with approximately 200 mls of water.

Then taking any food colouring of your choice and adding 10 drops to the conical flask filled with water. You then take 2 pieces of celery, cut equally and add to your conical flask and stir, then take a clear plastic bag and wrap it around the leaf, then you twist it using a twist tie.

Observation: 

What I am going to see as an outcome from this experiment is hopefully the xylem by the water moving to the leaf.
