The aim of this investigation is to see whether I can find a definite relationship between the light intensity onto the leaf's surface and the surface area of the leaf. Hypothesis I think the light intensity could affect the surface area in the following way: ·A higher light intensity could make the surface area of the leaf larger. The reason I think a higher light intensity could make the surface area larger is the fact …showed first 75 words of 641 total…

…showed last 75 words of 641 total…with only a low light intensity, there would have to be a large number of chloroplasts containing chlorophyll to absorb the light intensity available, meaning the surface area would have to be larger to get all the light possible. If I was doing this experiment again, I would take a larger number of samples and I would also try to get a larger range of light intensities, as this would make my investigation more accurate.
