Biology Experimental Protocol
Objective:
The students create an experiment log.
Contents and Methods:
The worksheet provides a structured biology experimental protocol. Students are required to document the process through technical drawings, data recording, and a written conclusion.
Competencies:
- Planning and executing a scientific experiment following a specific procedure.
- Collecting and recording empirical data through observation.
- Visualizing experimental setups and results through scientific labeling and drawing.
- Drawing evidence-based conclusions to explain biological phenomena.

Biology Experimental Protocol
Introduction
Use this worksheet to create an experiment log.
Research Question: How does light intensity affect the rate of photosynthesis in aquatic plants?
Materials: Aquatic plant (e.g., Elodea), beaker, water, sodium bicarbonate, light source (lamp), ruler, stopwatch, measuring cylinder, scissors
Procedure:
- Fill a beaker with water and add a small amount of sodium bicarbonate to provide a source of carbon dioxide.
- Cut a piece of the aquatic plant (about 10 cm) and place it in the beaker with the cut end facing upwards.
- Position the light source at a fixed distance (e.g., 10 cm) from the beaker.
- Allow the plant to acclimate to the light for 5 minutes.
- Start the stopwatch and count the number of oxygen bubbles produced by the plant in 1 minute.
- Record the number of bubbles.
- Repeat steps 3-6 at different distances (e.g., 20 cm, 30 cm, 40 cm) to vary the light intensity.
- Compare the rate of photosynthesis (number of bubbles) at different light intensities.
