Grades 9–12. Using aquatic plants, students explore the processes of photosynthesis and cellular respiration by testing for the presence of carbon dioxide in water. They then apply their knowledge and design an experiment testing factors that might limit or improve the rate of cellular respiration in yeast.
- Explore the relationship between cellular respiration and photosynthesis in plants
- Understand how cells use an aerobic or anaerobic process to generate energy
- Design and perform scientific investigations
