Distant Science Learning

This lab will help students conceptualize that plants in the dark will go through cellular respiration and in the light, plants go through photosynthesis. For the plant, I would suggest going to Petsmart or another pet supply store that sells live, under-water plants. Post-lab questions are also included.

First students will identify two variable in each scenario. Then, students will just identify the independent variable in 5 scenarios. Lastly, students will identify the dependent variable in 5 scenarios. *Fully editable* Answer key included on the second page.
