Pedagogical Use Description | The students make calorimetry measurements and dry weight measurements to show that plants gain mass and energy through the process of photosynthesis. Elements of directed inquiry are used because the students are not given the expected results of their experiments. The student are asked to relate their results to the summary equation of photosynthesis. |
Uniqueness | This laboratory investigation is derived from a biofuels curriculum developed at the University of Detroit Mercy. Thus, the student are analyzing their data and relating their results in the contacts of a real world problem. |
