Flowers are grown all over the world in gardens, greenhouses and in the wilderness naturally, and are shipped across huge distances. While the flower is still attached to the plant the flower benefits from the sugars that the plant’s leaves manufacture through the process of photosynthesis (SFGate, Unknown). Photosynthesis is the process used by plants…

Abstract The effect of light wavelength on the rate of photosynthesis in baby spinach leaves was determined by recording the consumption of carbon dioxide for four minutes. Red, blue, and green light were tested to determine which color increased the rate of photosynthesis the most. Each color has a specific range of wavelengths to describe…

Abstract Photosynthesis is the solar energy- dependent process on which food production for human existence ultimately depends. Each day passes with 854 million people hungry and, for that reason, the United Nations Millennium Declaration committed the worlds nations to eradicate extreme poverty and hunger. Sixty percent of the worlds population lives in Asia, where each…

Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are connected in a way that one cannot take place if the other is not performed. They need each other’s existence, basically. It’s like they are made to be soulmates; they co-exist. Light + 6CO2 + 6H2O ’ C6H12O6 + 6O2. Photosynthesis, with the help of light, 6CO2 (6 carbon dioxide…

ABSTRACT Study on the temperature effect on plant photosynthesis is essential for proper understanding of physiology of plants as well as designing of crops that are able to cope-up with temperatures greater as well as lower than optimum growth temperatures. Any fluctuation in temperatures from the optimum temperature affects the overall growth and productivity of…
