Simulation Details
Description
In the metabolic process of respiration, food, particularly glucose, undergoes oxidation, releasing energy that is essential for various cellular functions. In this experiment, wet gram seeds have been utilized due to their active respiration process, leading to the emission of carbon dioxide. The KOH solution present in the setup serves to absorb the carbon dioxide emitted by the seeds.
Through this simulation, participants will gain insights into how humans and animals release carbon dioxide during respiration, mirroring the process observed with the gram seeds. Additionally, they will learn about the phenomenon where air bubbles exhaled gradually turn lime water milky, providing a visual representation of the presence of carbon dioxide in the exhaled breath and its reaction with the lime water. This experiment offers a hands-on opportunity to understand the fundamental principles of respiration and the exchange of gases in living organisms.
Requirements for this Science Experiment
- Test tube stand
- Test tube
- Freshly prepared lime water in a beaker
- Cork with two holes
- Two glass tubes bend at right angles
