Abstract<\/b><\/p>\n

The differences between dicot and monocot roots have to do with the type of vascular system they have. Dicot roots have a secondary xylem and phloem system, while monocot roots only have a primary xylem system. This means that dicot roots can absorb water and nutrients from the soil more easily than monocot roots.<\/span><\/p>\n

Dicot plants require more water because they have many channels that pull up water and nutrients from the soil. Monocots do not need more water because they have a fibrous root system, and they absorb nutrients from deep in the soil.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ins this study, the effects of cobaltous ion uptake in a monocotyledon and a dicotyledon was investigated.<\/span><\/p>\n

Title: <\/span><\/i><\/b>The spectrophotometric determination of cobaltous ion uptake between the monocotyledon <\/span>Allium cepa<\/i> <\/span>and the dicotyledon <\/span>Daucus carota<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Purpose<\/i><\/b>: to use the spectrophotometer to determine the uptake of cobaltous ions in the monocotyledon <\/span>Allium cepa<\/i> <\/span>and the dicotyledon <\/span>Daucus carota<\/i>.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Importance: <\/span><\/i><\/b>negative impacts on living organisms in the environment; this study can give insight into the effects of cobaltous ions in plants<\/p>\n

\n

Hypothesis:<\/i><\/b>the dicot Daucus carota will have a greater uptake of cobaltous ions than will the monocot Allium cepa because of the differences between the morphology and physiology of their roots and stems.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Materials: <\/span><\/i><\/b>spectrophotometer, cobaltous nitrate, allium cepa, Daucus carota, beakers, cuvettes, graduated cylinder, pipette, small test tubes, parafilm<\/p>\n

Methods: <\/span><\/i><\/b>submerge the two plant specimens in two separate 0.1 M solution of a solutions of cobaltous nitrate and use the spectrophotometer to determine the absorbance of the solutions once a day for five days.<\/span><\/p>\n

Independent Variables<\/i><\/b>: cobaltous nitrate<\/p>\n

Dependent Variable:<\/i><\/b> <\/span>absorbance of cobaltous nitrate<\/p>\n

Control Group:<\/i><\/b> <\/span>does not receive treatment with cobaltous nitrate.<\/p>\n

Experimental Groups:<\/i><\/b> <\/span>receives treatment with cobaltous nitrate.<\/p>\n

Levels of Treatment (M):<\/i><\/b> <\/span>0.0   <\/span><\/span>0.02   <\/span><\/span>0.04   <\/span><\/span>0.06   <\/span><\/span>0.08   <\/span><\/span>0.10<\/p>\n

Ethical Considerations:<\/i><\/b> <\/span>Toxics substances need to be disposed of properly to avoid contaminating the environment.<\/p>\n

Statistical Analysis:<\/i><\/b> <\/span>t-test<\/p>\n

Null Hypothesis: <\/span><\/i><\/b>To be<\/i><\/b>determined. The null hypothesis will either be rejected or accepted.<\/p>\n

Vulnerability: <\/span><\/i><\/b>small sample size due to limited numbers of plant specimens as a consequence of space availability.<\/p>\n

Conclusions:<\/i><\/b> <\/span>To Be Determined: The hypothesis will either be rejected or supported<\/p>\n

Questions: <\/span><\/i><\/b>Why was <\/span>were Allium cepa and Daucous carota used in this experiment?<\/i> <\/span>Answer:<\/i><\/b> <\/span>To compare the uptake of cobaltous ions in a monocotyledon versus a dicotyledon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
