Students will learn the necessary components and conditions for photosynthesis to occur while using leaf disks to measure the accumulation of oxygen and relate it to the rate of photosynthesis.
- Teachers manual and student study guide copymasters are included
- There are enough materials provided for 8 lab groups
Students will then use guided inquiry to design and conduct an experiment to examine the effects of a chosen variable on the rate of photosynthesis.
This lab meets AP science practices 1, 2, 3, 6, and 7, and big idea 2.
