1. Background research within text citations and references in APA format (50 pts):
I want to take a mint plant to transpiration is evaporation water and lack of sun. Transpiration is basically evaporation of water from the inside of the plant though the leaves. The mint is being warmed by the sun turns into evaporates and passes out tiny though ores (stoma) under the side of the leave. It is during two functions of transpiration are to cool the plant and pump water with minerals to leaves for photosynthesis.

Dependent Variable:
water given time and time of day

Control:
how much sunlight

. Title (5pts): The effect of sunlight and no sunlight on my mint plant
4. Testable Question(5pts): How does sunlight and no sunlight effect the mint plant?
5. Hypothesis(5pts): My hypothesis is the mint that has the sunlight would grow better. With the Controlled water.
6. Methods (20 pts):
two mint plants, gas pressure sensor, laptop, graphical app. Thermometer, tubing, Plant cutters, ruler, syringe, clamps, pipette, Vaseline, base for the plants, paper, pens, a dark room, clamps and Vaseline.
Set up the pressure systems. Connect to tubing to the plastic syringe systems. Draw the water up. Make sure the bubbles are out of the tubing. Cut the plant one inch from the soil. Connect the tubing to the plant. Then you connect valve on the gas pressure sensor. Close the tubing tight clamp shut. If the tubing leaks check to make sure the clumps are tight, and the plants is rights. Set one plant where you cannot control the wind, temperature and is not constant. The next plant set in a control environment. Content the gas sensor to the computer. Prepare the computer for data collection. Once you put the app on your computer, there should be a folder in the app that you will use for your data. Data
should be collected for about 15 minutes. When the data is finishing collecting you should find the rate of transpiration in your plant. A floating box will appear record the slope and close the box with the Vaseline.
Make sure you chose the formula for the best fit line. Record the slope line, m in table 1 as the control. The Vaseline should help seal the end of the gas tubing where the plant is inserted.

Part F - How to determine transpiration rates by the whole plant method
Which of the following best explains why the plant in front of the fan lost more mass than the control plant in normal room conditions?
The leaves of the plant in front of the fan had the highest initial water potential and therefore lost the most water.
The control plant had lower initial water potential in the root area and therefore lost less water.
The control plant had a lower initial mass and so lost water at a decreased rate.
The fan rapidly moves water molecules away from the leaf surface, lowering the water potential.

5. A scientist wanted to know how different conditions affect the rate of transpiration in
plants. To conduct her investigation, the scientist poured 70 mL of water into four cups. In
each cup she placed a plant. Then she placed each cup in a different condition: next to a
fan, under a light, next to a misting fan, and one just in the middle of the room. Her data
is in the table below.
