Photosynthesis and Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide
Photosynthesis and Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide Classroom/ Laboratory Activity A classroom/laboratory activity that shows how to measure the rate of photosynthesis and its changes under different conditions including high concentrations of carbon dioxide, a potential contributor to climate change. Students will be able to explore, measure, and determine the rate at which photosynthesis occurs under one […]
Photosynthesis Under Variable Environmental Conditions
Photosynthesis Under Variable Environmental Conditions Classroom/Laboratory Activity A simple simulator that allows users to change a range of variables such as the color of light, brightness of light, and carbon dioxide concentration, and then note their impact on the photosynthetic efficiency of a plant. Use this tool to help your students find answers to: What […]
Carbon Dioxide and Photosynthesis
Carbon Dioxide and Photosynthesis Reading An article in Nature Education Knowledge that describes the effect of elevated levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere on photosynthesis. This article describes how elevated levels of carbon dioxide causes an increased rate of photosynthesis, which is more pronounced in C3 plants. Students will learn about the different photosynthetic […]
Impact of Climate Change on Photosynthesis
Impact of Climate Change on Photosynthesis Overview As a high school or undergraduate Biological Sciences teacher, you can use this set of computer-based tools to help you in teaching photosynthesis, factors affecting photosynthesis, and the impact of increasing levels of atmospheric CO2 and some climaterelated factors on photosynthesis This lesson plan enables students to understand […]
Climate Change Impacts on Secondary Metabolites of Plants
Climate Change Impacts on Secondary Metabolites of Plants Overview As an Undergraduate Biological Sciences teacher, you can use this set of computer based tools to enable students in developing a comprehensive understanding about the core topics of plant pathology, mycology, plant response to biotic stress and medicinal botany. Plants being immobile, synthesize a diversity of […]
Breathless Oceans: Impact of Climate Change on Dissolved Oxygen
Breathless Oceans: Impact of Climate Change on Dissolved Oxygen Overview As a high school or introductory undergraduate Chemistry or Environmental Sciences teacher, you can use these computer based tools to teach a practical component of environmental chemistry paper i.e. the determination of dissolved oxygen in the given sample of water. In this lesson plan, students […]
