 Update to the bean plant





You can see here that the trifoliate leaves have formed, and one of the branches actually broke itself with its own weight. These will now be replanted outside with better support.

LAB - Exercise 1, Pigment Separation Leaves used in the experiment, Groups A, B, and C respectively. Leaves used in the experiment, Groups A, B, and C respectively. Filter papers for each test. Note: Filter papers were not included in the lab kit, so a coffee filter was used in its stead. 2 of the leaf fragments had 4 visible pigments, and the other had 3. The distance traveled varied slightly between the 3 groups but stayed in a short-range. Most of the filter papers reflected similar colors and not the colors of the leaves themselves. The time of year these were taken from would most likely be average as the plants had yet to change.
