It is. Only usually you use a pond weed. You can see the oxygen bubbles forming a stream. You capture them in a test tube. And you can relight a glowing splint to show that it is oxygen. You literally do this experiment at GCSE.

@Я завжди страждання oh man, I super duper care about your opinion. Please keep talking to me, guy who barely knows basic English and had to take a lesson from me. I love it when internet weirdos sperg out at me. ("Sperging out" is an advanced bit of English slang, meaning to act in a way that makes your asperger's syndrome very obvious, such as continuously sharing your opinion with someone who clearly doesn't want it. You're welcome for the 2nd free lesson. Your trial period is about to expire, though.)
In high school biology we did this actually 2 days ago but we used aldoe leafs and trapped the oxygen at the top and made air bubbles we tested the amount of air bubbles in different types of light
How on earth do you find so many versatile science experiments? It is totally mind boggling. Every video makes me say "gosh, I didn't know that at all".
If not viewer suggestions, most likely just pure curiosity. Imagine something already taught in school or read from some book then dig it deeper with real experiments.
Whenever he asks “do you know?” I automatically know I don’t. I don’t know why my teacher didnt explain photosynthesis this way back then in middle school
Maybe the school had teachers who didn’t know how to teach properly or who were lazy and chaotic in their schedules. Also students might not listen. Combine bad teaching with not listening and it wouldn’t be surprising if by 7th grade you don’t know this
Yep I see it in my tank too with CO2 injection… and whenever I have some dying leaves in my aquarium they never do such so I don’t know what Donald is talking about
When it gets dark they still keep on performing the dark reaction which happens in the stroma (matrix) of the chloroplast because that doesn't depends on the light but depends on the product of the light reaction , ie atp and nadph+h+ to produce carbohydrates out of it , when the stored atp and nadph+h+ gets over the reaction stops and starts again when the plant gets the light , that's one of the reason why the leaf didn't get down at the end , this experiment could have been better performed using a aquatic plant like hydrilla , as was shown during 19th century by Jan ingenhousz i appreciate the experiment you performed out in the video , I'm a med student namaste from India
Actually in Finland, we have made thar experiment by ourselves during class! It was a beautiful sight:) we also had done experiments on osmosis and many more. All that was on a special course I attended tho
I love aquatic plants and I can actually see it in my aquarium. When they're overproducing they're almost covered with bubbles and that's when I know my light malfunctioning and is a bit too bright.
Microscope footage of photosynthesis is also pretty cool. You don't think about them having moving parts, but the chloroplasts are in constant motion within the cells. Some really cool videos of it on TH-cam.
I didn’t know how effective photosynthesis actually is. I though it would be much slower than that, but today I learned something new. Keep doing cools stuff like this.
@Han Solo exactly. And it's been like that, since the dawn of youtube. People really do believe, that an 8 minute youtube video could constitute the entirety of their school, whilst they fail to realize that they were given the basic components to comprehend these abstract, scientific (e.g) ideas from what they abolish. The school system was never made to be fun, rather educating - the medium which conveys whatever class, is in charge of making it edible and entertaining for the students. People also fail to realize, that the knowledge they seek from a creator they find intriguing, will fall much more to their favor. See the connection? If you have a teacher you adore, you will be interested in what they say. It's no deep secret to life🤣
Great job, I never thought that this could be seen this way by a simple experiment, our teachers never went beyond the books, I wish I got to see it during school times, how easily today's kids may understand the process of photosynthesis by actually watching your video. Keep going and thanks a lot!
That’s so cool I love how you gave us the timeline of how long it took to float and I wasn’t quite sure how long it took to sink, but you’re really thorough thank you so much 🌱
OMG WE SAW THIS IN CLASS- IM SO HAPPY TO SEE IT CUZ I WAS REALLY SICK THE DAY THE TEACHER DID THAT LESSON SO I HAD TO TRY AND UNDERSTAND JUST FROM THE WRITTEN LESSON AND THIS HELPED ME UNDERSTAND IT MORE TYSM
We have a shitty education system in the US, the majority at least, so yeah, don't be too shocked no one knew this. I didn't know THIS but I did learn about photosynthesis in school. Sucks our education system is more focused on bullying, pronouns and gender reassignment surgery lmao how pathetic are we as cuckold Americans lmao. Not me but a big percentage of the country is.
I would’ve loved to see this video about five hours ago. I JUST took a standardized test that asked a question about this type of experiment. In hindsight, I got the question wrong 😩
This explains amazingly how plants survive at night! They need the light for photosynthesis but when it gets dark they can also use cellular respiration for a period of time
They use cellular respiration 24 hours a day. Photosynthesis is used to make glucose, but in modern plants, they have to use cellular respiration to use the energy of the sun they stored in the glucose.
@@starfall171 Cool. I wasn't criticizing, I teach this stuff, and the number of people who think plants do photosynthesis during the day and only cellular respiration at night is very large.
Anyone know of a channel like his but for math? Or chemistry? I wanna get back into these with a "teacher" that has the same passion/intresting way of explaining things
I don't know if these channels are specific to what you wanted but Vsauce (1 2 & 3) , Smartereveryday and Mark Rober are all excellent science channels. Vsauce is my favourite youtube channel!
We can use the same principle for respiration. By mixing some agar with yeast, we can form agar balls by dropping some of the solution into water or by using a mold. Then these balls can be dropped into a glucose solution. The yeast would then metabolism the glucose to form CO2, allowing the balls to float to the surface
"Leafs" is absurd. But "molecules of oxygen" refers to the 6 O2 molecules produced by photosynthesis. ("Oxygen" can refer to both an element and a molecule, I suppose.)
Yet to figure out the relationship between "oxygen" evolution and floating of the "leaves"....More so, Carbohydrates metabolism in the night caused the leaves to sink. Puzzling!
@@rasheedolajiire5135 the oxygen gas produced causes the leaf to float. When photosynthesis stops oxygen production also stops and hence the leaf starts to sink
So... my questions are: is the water "sweeter" in the day than at night? And therefore, is this why natural spring water tastes better than all other types of water, including filtered or distilled water, and especially tap water? And does well water taste different at night? I know these seem like dumb questions (because some folks can't tell the difference in the taste of water) but I need these answers and have no way to test/experiment to find out.
The sugar is bound inside the cells (it's their energy/fuel source after all) so I wouldn't expect much of a noticeable difference in the water's flavour. I'm not an expert on spring water but as far as I'm aware any difference in taste is mostly due to minerals, salts and other impurities from the surrounding earth/rocks.
Did you try something other than leaves to prove its oxygen? Just a scientific question. What happens when you mix baking soda and water? A chemical and exothermic reaction takes place that produces carbon dioxide, which is why the water fizzes ever so slightly.
What kind of spinach are you using because my hole punches immediately floated before adding baking soda. Perhaps I got that certified buoyant spinach.
We did this experiment in our cell lab! It was definitely one of my favorites, there's something about watching photosynthesis in real time that's sooo cool
How does one tell the oxygen bubbles from the carbon dioxide bubbles produced from baking soda in the solution when exposed to the organic acids in the leaves?
