• To investigate the relationship among leaf surface area, number of stomata, and the rate of transpiration
• To design and conduct an experiment to explore other factors, including different environmental variables, on the rate of transpiration
• To investigate the relationship between the structure of vascular tissues (xylem and phloem) and their functions in transporting water and nutrients in plants
Transpiration investigation:
answer "Getting started" questions 1-4 (pg. 137)
Step 1 --> a-h.
Step 2 --> a-l.
Designing and Conducting Your Investigation
Class investigation question(s)?
Method with a potometer and without a gas pressure sensor.
Answer questions in steps 1-2 & make up a PLF for investigating the class determined question related to plant transpiration.
Next step (Friday):
Designing and Conducting Class Investigation:
Standardize class investigation(s)/methodology
Step 3 (pg. 141):
Calculations (pg. 143) steps 1-5
Analyzing Results:
1-7
