This is a table on transpiration rate. Ensure that you do the graph.

Remember :

1. Have a title for your graph 2. Label your axes, not forgetting the units 3. Use a key because it is
two sets of data that you are plotting 4. Proper scale(occupies at least half of graph paper) 5.
Accurately plot your points and connect

1.
An investigation was carried out to determine the effect of temperature on rate of water
uptake. The distances moved by the bubble in the potometer within a specific time at 25
degrees Celsius and 35 degrees Celsius were recorded.

DISTANCE MOVED BY BUBBLE IN POTOMETER HELD AT 25 0C AND 35 0C

Distance travelled by bubble/cm


TIME/mins
25 0c 35 0c

4 0.6 1.2
8 1.4 2.3
12 2.2 3.5
16 2.9 4.8
20 3.6 6.0
24 4.4 7.2
28 5.2 8.4
30 5.7 9.6

(a) Represent this data on a single sheet of graph paper


(b) Explain fully the differences observed in the graphs
(c) What factors will have to be kept constant during this experiment?
(d) Describe how the process of transpiration takes place and say why it is important to plants
