Showing 26 experiments that use the Wireless CO₂ Sensor (Carbon Dioxide).
Plant Respiration and Photosynthesis
Students use a carbon dioxide sensor to measure the rates of photosynthesis and respiration in spinach leaves.
Cellular Respiration
In this lab, students use a carbon dioxide gas sensor to measure the rate of cellular respiration of germinating seeds. Students will design and conduct...
Photosynthesis
In this lab, students test how light influences the rate of photosynthesis.
Energy Dynamics
Students set up a variety of simple detritus-based model systems to estimate energy flow and carbon cycling within an ecosystem. Students set up their...
Cellular Respiration in Animals
In this activity, students will quantify the rate of cellular respiration for a macroinvertebrate or fish and determine the oxygen consumption rate.
Plant Photosynthesis and Respiration
In this activity, students will measure carbon dioxide levels in a closed environment to determine rates of photosynthesis and respiration for different...
Decomposition
In this lab, students will investigate the rate of decomposition in different soil and substrate samples.
Modeling an Ecosystem
In this lab, students use a variety of sensors to explore the use of terrariums as a closed system for environmental studies and design methods for exploring...
Photosynthesis and Cell Respiration in a Terrarium
In this lab, students will use an oxygen sensor, carbon dioxide sensor, and a temperature sensor...
Cellular Respiration and Carbon Cycle
In this lab, students use a carbon dioxide sensor to compare the respiration of dormant bean seeds...
