Stomata and Transpiration Rates—
Student Laboratory Kit
By: The Flinn Staff
Strengthen your students’ knowledge and understanding of stomata and transpiration with this engaging two-part student lab activity. Students first observe the physical properties of stomata and determine the average number of stomata in a leaf by viewing plant leaf impres- sions under a microscope. They then investigate and measure the rate of transpiration of plants under different conditions to learn more about photosynthesis, guard cells, and gas exchange. Includes detailed proce- dures, and complete Instructor Notes.
Complete for 30 students working in pairs.
Gibberellic Acid and Plants—
Student Laboratory Kit
By: The Flinn Staff
What effects do hormones have on plants? Will different concentrations of hormones affect plants differently? Students will be introduced to plant hormones and will see firsthand the powerful effects of gibberellic acid. Students place gibberellic acid solutions of varying concentrations on bean seedlings and observe and record the exciting results. Students will also have the opportunity to design and conduct their own gibber- ellic acid experiments. Includes Instructor’s Notes, detailed student section, and reproducible student handouts.
Complete 30 students working in pairs.
Hydroponics Experiment
The unique growth chambers in this kit enable students to view plants thriving in a nutrient solution and not in soil. They will compare the growth phases of five different plants and also experiment with induced nitrogen and iron deficiencies. This is a graphic and involving activity that students are certain to enjoy. Two complete hydroponic growth chambers are included.
Nutrient Deficiency in Plants—
Hydroponics Laboratory Kit
By: The Flinn Staff
Students will compare hydroponically grown plants with plants grown in soil. They will be amazed as they watch plants grow without soil! In their experimentation they will also study the effects of missing macro- and micro-nutrients. Pre-mixed nutrient solutions, seeds, and growth chamber materials make your preparation time minimal. Includes detailed instructions, hydroponics background, and sample results.
Complete for 30 students working in pairs.
