Transpiration Uptake Water Record Air Bubble Set Investigation

Front How can we set up an investigation to investigate transpiration rate?
Back
  • We estimate the rate of transpiration by measuring the uptake of water by a plant
  • Use a potometer to measure the uptake of water
  • Record the starting position of the air bubble
  • Start a stopwatch, record the distance moved by the bubble per unit of time
  • Keep conditions constant throughout the experiment (e.g. temperature, air humidity)
