Actually, if you put a white carnation in food coloring, the carnations will turn that color. Example: Put a white carnation in red food coloring. In a few weeks, the flower will turn red.
if you put white carnations in a vase with cold water and a couple drops of food coloring then the petals with turn the color of the food coloring..... ex: 1 white carnation+a vase+red food coloring+cold water=red carnation
white flowers (carnation)
Because I said it does ~LG
White flowers, such as carnations, daisies, and roses, absorb food coloring best because they have lighter petals that easily take on the color. These flowers are commonly used in science experiments or crafts where the goal is to see the color change.
Put different food coloring in jar (you can add water if you want lighter color) then take a carnation and split the stem into however many jar of coloring you have. Stick part of a stem in each jar then leave it for a couple hours. This is called colorful carnation if you would like to look it up on the internet. Or go to http://www.stevespanglerscience.com/experiment/00000144
it will become the coler of food coloring you had.
When you put a white flower in food coloring the flower drinks the food die and the pettals change to the color you put the flower in. Its a great science experiment for science fairs and you can get a great amount of facts.
Carnations typically absorb water at a rate of 1-2 inches per day. When food coloring is added to the water, the carnation will absorb the colored water through its stem, resulting in dyed petals in the color of the food coloring. The absorption rate may vary depending on factors such as the freshness of the flower and the concentration of the dye.
A vascular (tracheophyte) plant has a system of tubes or conducting tissues. Xylem transports water and minerals from the roots to the leaves. Phloem transports food from the leaves to the rest of the plant. Angiosperms are vascular and a carnation is an angiosperm (flowering plant). You can prove this by doing the color-changing experiment. Take a white carnation. Place the stem in water with food coloring added. The water travels up the xylem and the color is deposited in the white petals of the flower.
No. Food coloring is simply added for visual effect.
no
No, food Coloring is a water based dye, it will have a negligible effect on the rate at which water evaporates.
