Series 3 - Photosynthesis (Labs 8-10) Objectives:
In this series of three weeks of experiments you will learn:
- How photosynthetic pigments are harvested and used in vivo in converting light energy to chemical energy
- How to extract, separate, measure, and analyze photosynthetic pigments
- How to use an artificial electron acceptor to measure an aspect of photosynthesis in vitro
- How to investigate a variable that might affect the rate of electron transport in photosynthesis
- How to write an original scientific research report
Lab 8: Photosynthetic Pigments
Lab 9: The Hill Reaction
Lab 10: Variables Affecting the Hill Reaction
