Publisher's Synopsis
Cultivate curiosity about everything from germination to grafting with activities that demonstrate the life functions of plants and the factors that affect them. These evergreen labs help students learn such essentials as the parts of a plant and photosynthesis. Students also explore the impact of the absence of light on growth, the relationship between colored lights and chlorophyll production, and that raging botanical controversy: Do radish seedlings really have an allelopathic effect on lettuce seeds?
