IN CLASS:
Objectives: Demonstrate a basic understanding of photosynthesis by running a controlled scientific experiment to study the effects of varying CO2 concentration on rates of photosynthesis
Warm-up: What are the reactants for and products of the photosynthesis reactions in plant cells? What is the significance of these products for heterotrophs? [5]
Introduction to photosynthesis and a tour of the chloroplast [30]
Photosynthesis Lab (teams of 3 to 4) [70]
Check/stamp osmosis demonstration data table/calculations and photosynthesis tour questions
OUTSIDE OF CLASS:
Work on photosynthesis lab if you got some data--otherwise make sure
you know what you are doing so you can run or re-run the experiment on
Monday
Continue working on ESLP project
