Transpiration Experiment...Take 2
You all came up with some great ideas about different factors we could control in order to get more accurate data on transpiration!! What factors did we control in today's experiment? Do you think our class data will be more similar to one another tomorrow? What other tests would you like to perform?

SHOCKING RESULTS?!?!
Why were the wheat seeds grown in the dark....
wait for it.....
LIGHT BROWN???
I knew what was going to happen and I even got the WOW face!!!
What makes plants green anyway?? Knowing what YOU know about how plants get their food, where do you these plants, grown in the dark, are getting the food necessary to grow? What test would you like to try next with our wheat plants to find more information?
