Question
What would be the independent variables for the spinach leaf serial dilution experiment
Expert Solution
arrow_forward
Step 1
The spinach leaf serial dilution experiment is a method, used to measure the rate of photosynthesis when spinach leaves are submerged in a concentration of CO2 and water.
In this experiment, 10 uniform shaped spinach leaf discs were dipped in a solution of Sodium Bicarbonate and in water and it was observed that spinach leaves dipped in Sodium Bicarbonate solution float up faster, indicating higher rates of Photosynthesis.

- On the graph that relates absorbance to flavin concentration, draw a horizontal line that starts at the point on the y-axis that corresponds to the absorbance of your unknown sample and ends at the curve you drew through your data points . Next draw a vertical line that starts at the point where the horizontal line intersected the curve and ends at the x-axis. The point where this vertical line intersects the x-axis corresponds to the concentration of flavin in your unknown sample. What was the letter on the tube with your unknown sample?

- cite your referencearrow_forwardThirty corn seedlings of equal size were randomly assigned to one of three treatment groups. At the beginning of the experiment, the plants in group I were dried and the mass was determined. The plants in group Il were maintained in light for a week. The plants in group III were maintained in the dark for a week. All conditions, other than light, were the same for groups IlI and III. At the end of the week, the plants in groups Il and III were dried and the mass was determined. The experimental results are provided in the table.
