Observations and Questions

[1] Show your oxygen change rate calculation for the Sun-Adapted data run.

[2] Show your carbon dioxide change rate calculation for the Shade-Adapted data run.

[3] Examine your results. Do your results reveal a possible relationship between (rates of) production of oxygen and carbon dioxide? Explain. Cite your results as part of your explanation.

[4] Using your results for change in oxygen concentration as a reference, discuss whether your Procedure I results confirm research findings about differences in the amount of chlorophyll production for sun-adapted and shade-adapted leaves.

[5] How is the net photosynthesis rate related to the rates you determined? (note that this is not a calculation)

[6] Explain why (or why not) you would expect respiration to occur when the illumination is 100%?
