Answer:

The leaf discs only float in bicarbonate solution and in the light environment.

Explanation:

The bicarbonate dissolves in water to produce a source of inorganic CO2 in the reaction:

NaHCO3 + H2O → H2CO3 + OH- + Na+

Then, the HCO3- undergoes fixation through several complex steps in order to form a carbohydrate or sugar. These store the converted solar energy in their bonds as chemical energy to be used in metabolism.

Photosynthesis is a chemical process, essential to plant and other primary producers producing energy. Energy in the form of glucose molecules is derived from solar or light energy, water, and inorganic carbon dioxide, while it releases oxygen (from the light reaction). The leaf discs float as O2 gas is produced, making them buoyant.

6CO2 + 6H20 + (energy) → C6H12O6 + 6O2

Carbon dioxide + water + energy= glucose + oxygen

The solution should become hypertonic.

A solution will be called hypertonic if their oncotic/osmotic pressure is higher than the body fluid. When a hypertonic solution is administered, they will attract water from the nearby membrane. This will make a nearby cell become shrink as they lose water. This might be dangerous as the cells as they might go lysis if the amount of water loss is too many.
After the salt absorbed, it will be dumped by kidney into urine. But the salt will also attract water, so you will lose some fluid and might become dehydrated. This is why drinking sea water is dangerous because it will cause more fluid loss in urine.

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

This question is asking to formulate a hypothesis for the experiment in the question. A hypothesis is:

IF natural compost is used instead of artificial fertilizer, THEN the tomato plants will grow faster and taller than when artificial fertilizer was used.

Explanation:

In an experiment, a hypothesis is formulated to provide a possible explanation or solution to an observed problem or question. The hypothesis must be testable or falsifiable via an experimentation.

In this experiment involving a biology student who is trying to find out if using natural compost will cause his tomato plants to grow faster and taller than his previously used artificial fertilizer. A possible hypothesis for this experiment goes thus:

IF natural compost is used instead of artificial fertilizer, THEN the tomato plants will grow faster and taller than when artificial fertilizer was used.
