Virtual Experiments

1. Observation of the Typical Downward Growth of a Maize Root

2. What is the Response of a Root When the Entire Plant is Rotated 90 Degrees?

3. How Does Removing the Root Cap Affect the Gravitropic Response of Maize Plants?

4. Is There a Difference in the Elongation Rates of the Topside and Bottom side of a Root After Gravistimulation?

5.  How Does the Angle of Gravistimulation Affect the Response of the Plants? 

 

Here is a picture of the movies in the making.

The movies were made using a digital camera and an Apple Computer

Made with a Mac!

 

Show me how to set the plants up!

This is too much for me, take me to the background info!
