Abstract:The purpose of this experiment was to identify the relationship between six different sources of light and the growth of an Arabidopsis thaliana. This experiment measures wet mass, relative chlorophyll level, dry mass, and turbidity. The results explain the relationship between chlorophyll levels and the wavelength of light. This project has practical applications for commercial and indoor plant growers to produce an optimal harvest.
