Try to come up with ideas to conduct some experiments to get a better understanding of photosynthesis (e.g. you can play with the intensity of the light, study how fast a plant recovers, investigate differences between day and night, etcetera). Check out literature to collect ideas. If the study you would like to undertake requires a specific kind of plant, or specfic treatment of a plant and/or its leaves (e.g. to perform stress studies), please contact Jan Mulder (j.m.mulder@vu.nl).
Before you conduct your measurements, (1) define your research question, (2) describe how you can experimentally determine what the answer would be, (3) present expected outcomes for possible senarios. Then conduct the experiment, analyse and discuss your results and present your conclusion.
