Starch Production Through
Photosynthesis
Kathleen
Moran
2002- 2003 Fellow
This lab provides students with
the opportunity to see the contrast between parts of a leaf that have photosynthesized
and parts that have not. They will observe that areas of a leaf that receive
light are able to photosynthesize to produce glucose (and eventually starch),
while areas of a leaf that do not receive light cannot photosynthesize and
thus do not produce glucose. This visual image will help students see and
understand the results of photosynthesis.
This lab
is designed for use in high school Biology classes. You can download the
files in 3 formats:
