Innovating Science™ AP Biology Investigation Kit No. 11: Transpiration

Description

Includes

• Eight each: clear tubing 12 in.; tubing clamps; pipettes - 1mL; syringes- 10mL; planting trays- six cells;
• One each: bag potting soil;pack of bean seeds; tube of petroleum jelly; bottle nail polish; Pack of microscope slides
• Teacher's manual and student's guide

Students study transpiration/transpiration pull and the role it plays in water/nutrient movement in plants.

Students will design and conduct an experiment to show how altering an environmental condition may affect the rate of transpiration.

• Study the role of stomata
• Examine transpiration in a bean seedling
• Show effect of altering environment
• Meets AP Science Practices 1, 2, 4, 6, and 7, and Big Idea 4
• Materials for 32 students in eight lab groups
