Results from our forumPhotosynthetic capacity of plant - Experimental control... would have included which of the following? I. Expose the plant to 32 hours of continuous moderate light and measure rates of carbon dioxide uptake and tissue starch concentration. II. Expose the plant to 32 hours of continuous dark and measure rates of carbon dioxide uptake and tissue starch ...

How to measure cell pearmability/uptake in yeast?... chemical. My ideas are to add a dye to the media the yeast are growing on and see if the yeast with the promoter of permeability chemical (A) uptake more of the dye than ones without the promoter chemical. Then if the ones cells are darker which grew up with (A) then it would show that (A) ...

Also, uptake of iron, I hear, is necessary through a chelating agent because it will form a precipitate with phoshphorous. Why? And a few other things: Where ...
