1 AP BIOLOGY CELLULAR ENERGETICS ACTIVITY #5 NAME DATE HOUR FACTORS AFFECTING THE RATE OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this activity is to: Demonstrate how photosynthetic rates in different plants can change in response to factors such as light intensity, light quality, CO 2 concentration, and temperature. Compare photosynthesis in C 3 and C 4 plants. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN The basic experimental design begins with a lamp as a source of visible light. The intensity of visible light produced by this lamp can be increased or decreased, and the wavelengths of visible light released by the lamp can be altered using different filters that will allow only certain wavelengths of visible light to strike the leaf you are studying. To prevent the leaf sample from drying out or burning due to heat from the lamp, a reservoir of water is placed between the lamp and the leaf. The leaf is contained in a sealed chamber. In addition to manipulating the quantity and quality of light striking the leaf in the chamber, the scientists can also manipulate various environmental conditions of the leaf chamber, such as gas flow, temperature, and CO 2 concentration. When collecting data, the concentration of CO 2 in the leaf chamber will be measured using an infrared gas analyzer (IRGA). Because water vapors that can affect the accuracy of the IRGA will be produced in the chamber when light strikes the leaf, air leaving the chamber is passed through a drying column prior to entering the IRGA. The IRGA measures the amount of infrared radiation absorbed by CO 2 in the air coming from the leaf chamber. Analyzing data on the amount of CO 2 consumed by the leaf will enable the scientists to study several different parameters of photosynthesis. The rate of photosynthesis is calculated using four equations. Each equation is described below. Equation 1: Calculates CO 2 consumption by subtracting C-out from C-in and reports this value as the change in CO 2 concentration ( CO 2 ). Equation 2: Converts CO 2 concentration from parts per million to µmol/liter, based on the temperature of the leaf flask. Equation 3: Calculates the rate of CO 2 that is available for exchange between the leaf and the flask by multiplying CO 2 concentration against gas flow. Equation 4: Net photosynthetic rate (P) is calculated by dividing the CO 2 available for exchange by the total surface area of the leaf being studied. This value is reported as the number of micromoles of CO 2 released per square meter of leaf surface area per second (µmol/m 2 /s). Cellular Energetics Activity #5 page 1

EXPERIMENT #2: EFFECT OF LIGHT QUALITY ON THE RATE OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS What effect will different colors of light (white, red, green, and blue) have on the rate of photosynthesis in corn leaves? HYPOTHESIS: Write a hypothesis to predict of the effect of different colors of light on the rate of photosynthesis in corn leaves.
