Plant Science Bundle 1
kit #AG-S07
This bundle provides a savings of $43.85 and contains the following kits:
Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration, Developed by SEPUP (#30S)
Part One is an investigation into the reactions of photosynthesis and cellular respiration using a series of images and statements. Students then discuss these processes relative to ecosystems and the carbon cycle. In Part Two, students read about the details of photosynthesis and cellular respiration, including light and dark reactions, glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and the electron transport chain.
Photosynthesis, Plants and Food (#31)
In the first activity, students build carbon dioxide and water molecules then “react” them to form sugar and oxygen molecules. To reinforce and extend these concepts, students then read about plants as producers and the process of photosynthesis, including the role of chloroplasts.
Seed Staining (#66)
In this engaging and fun kit, students learn how to differentiate between plant food stored as a simple sugar and food stored as a starch. Using a step-by-step procedure, students first dissect the seeds, and then treat them with reagents. This helps to determine the quantity and location of the sugar and starch. The individualized, open-ended worksheets provide additional investigations for student exploration.
