Purpose of Experiment: The Purpose of this experiment was to observe the part of the photosynthetic process in which oxygen is built up in the leaf from water. When leaf disks are submerged in a carbon solution with soap and shaken, they will sink, and after about 30 minutes in the solution they should float again, showing more oxygen in the leaf.
My leaf disks sunk very fast and never came back up, similar to many others.
Purpose of experiment: To watch plants grow and determine which is a monocot and which is a dicot Predictions: corn is a monocot and mung bean is a dicot Observations: The corn had a longer skinnier whole body while the mung beans had leaves that went opposite directions. Findings: The corn is a monocot because inside it has only one seed while the mung bean has two and leaves that go out opposite from each other. Conundrums: My plants thrived and did well with great growth throughout the project.
