To identify the raw materials needed for photosynthesis
To Identify the products of photosynthesis
PREPARATION OF
MATERIALS

20 PUNCHED ALUGBATI LEAVES

After being in a
vacuum while
shaked slowly with
consistent strokes
this is the result
 DISTRIBUTION OF THE
DISCS TO CUP A AND B

Distribution of the alugbati discs on both cup

A and B with equal amounts (10 for each cup)
should be observed. Cup A is exposed to
sunlight/artificial light while cup B is kept
away from any source of light

THE RESULT

After 15 minutes of observation all the alugbati

discs in cup A floated to the top, while the discs
in cup B remained at the bottom of the cup

QUESTIONS AND ANALYSIS

1. What happened to the spinach discs as they gave off oxygen from
photosynthesis.
-The spinach discs sank in both detergent and bicarbonate solution.
2. What happened to the set up exposed to sun-light.
-In exactly 15 minutes all of the disc went up.
3. What happened to the spinach disc kept from light source.
-In 15 minutes only 1 discs floated to the top.
4. What three things did you give the spinach for them to perform
photosynthesis.
-Carbon Dioxide, Sunlight and Water.
5. What are the products of photosynthesis. Presentation Design

-Oxygen and Glucose
