Putting a mouse in a jar with a plant , then taking the plant out to see if it affected the mouse and of course it did.The mouse was able to live in the inclosed jar as long as the plant was there but when the plant was takin away the mouse died.

∙ 9y agoWhen Joseph Priestley, an Englishman, discovered oxygen in 1774, he answered age-old questions of why and how things burn. He did this by systematically analyzing the properties of different "airs" using an inverted container on a raised platform. The container captured the gases produced by the various experiments below it. The container could also be placed in a pool of water or Mercury, sealing it, and then the gas tested to see if it would sustain a flame or support life.

Can plant carry out photosynthesis using artificial light?
Plants cannot make photosynnthesis it is the process of making food. But a plant could make food with torchlight as long as it has soil and the nutrients it needs to survive aswell. It may not grow properly though. Why don't you try an experiment to conclude I am right.
How are the rate of photosynthesis and the growth rate of grass related -?
Energy is needed to reproduce. Photosynthesis is how plants make "food". That "food" is turned into energy by cellular respiration. So, the more cycles of photosynthesis are done, the faster a plant grows.
Why is control important in an experiment?
Every experiment requires a control group. This is so that the group that is manipulated can be compared to a group that has had nothing done to it., in order to measure changes.
What is experiment set-up?
An experimental setup uses the independent variable.
A compound need for photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis is a process used by plants, which is done to make food (glucose/sugar). Photosynthesis requires carbon dioxide (CO2), sunlight, and water (H2O) which would create glucose (sugar), and oxygen (O2). A compound is a group of 2 or more different atoms combined chemically. The compounds that is included for photosynthesis is carbon dioxide and water.
What priestley had done to introduce mint plant without disturbing experimental set up?
Can you answer
What is done in an experiment?
The reason for the experiment is to answer the problem
When did Ben Franklin performs famous kite experiment?
Unfortunately, Franklin's original account of this experiment only stated that it had been done in Philadelphia, without any mention of where or when it was done, or even by whom. The only statement that Franklin did so came 15 years after the fact from Joseph Priestley, a close friend who claimed to be writing down the verbal account of Franklin's. Priestley stated that Ben, when deciding to do the experiment, chose "to take a walk in the fields, in which there was a shed convenient for his purpose." This could have been just about anywhere in the Philadelphia area.
Who are three scientists that contributed to our knowledge on photosynthesis?
Three scientists that contributed to our knowledge on photosynthesis are: Jan Ingenhousz, who discovered the role of sunlight in photosynthesis. Melvin Calvin, who elucidated the Calvin cycle, the process by which plants fix carbon dioxide during photosynthesis. Rudolph A. Marcus, who developed the theory of electron transfer reactions in photosynthesis, explaining the mechanism by which plants convert light energy into chemical energy.
Where are most experiment done explain the benefits of this choice?
Experiment done the most is doing hypothesis

What are necessary precautions for safety purposes while conducting an experiment?
The necessary safety precautions when conducting an experiment depend on what is done during the experiment and where it is done.
How deforestation related to photosynthesis?
Since trees can do photosynthesis, cutting down trees will decrease the amount of photosynthesis being done.
What is the deffintion of controlled experiment?
a controlled experiment is an experiment that has an iv, dv, and a control, is in a well handled environment, and the experiment is safely done.
Who is photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis is not a person. It is a process done by plant to get energy
What is intended to be done in an experiment?
It is the "aim"
Do all experiment have to be done in a lab?
No
