Summary of the In the laboratory practice we will identify the scientific phenomena that are linked to the coloration process of a rose,plant to understand in
experiment and key depth what happened during the experiment.
words Key
words: 1.Circulation 2.Coloration 3.Pigmentation 4.Capillarity

Objective of the
practice Demostrate the functioning of the circulatory system of plants and how it is involved in order to perform the rose
coloration experiment.

Theoretical
Before starting the experiment, it is necessary to clarify several concepts that will be vital for the practice, capillarity is a
Framework physical phenomenon that allows a liquid to ascend through very thin vessels to a certain height, this is evidenced in
plants in the Xylem and Phloem, this phenomenon can be evidenced in the Xylem, being in charge of transporting water
and minerals necessary for the plant from the root to the rest of the plants.

Conclusions:we can conclude that depending on the number of days that the roses are left in the water with dye, the
intensity of the color will be higher, in addition to this we can conclude that the sugar and salt to be rich in nutrients, the
color of the roses will be more intense. the phenomenas can be analized in this practice are the Adhesion this is the
conclusions and attraction of molecules of one type to molecules of another type, and for water it can be quite strong, especially when the
explanation of other molecules have positive or negative charges. Cohesión y adhesión del agua (artículo). (s. f.). Khan Academy.

and-adhesion-in-water. Another phenomena is the capillarity on the plants, this is when the Plants absorb water and
other substances from the soil through the root. These substances are transported to the leaves by conductive vessels
thanks to capillarity. The capillarity of liquids is a physical phenomenon that allows a liquid to rise through very fine
vessels up to a certain height.A. (2021, 2 febrero). Plantas que cambian de color: experimento - Fundación Aquae.
