Abiotic Factors Affect Plants Growth & Development
Introduction:
Thousands of plants which occur in different ecosystem they all share the same requirements in order to survive, grow. These referred to as abiotic factors. Abiotic factors are essentially non-living components that affect the living organisms .There are six abiotic factors that affect plant growth: air, water, space, temperature, light and soil (nutrients). These are the basic favorable environmental conditions, its allow them to successfully live and reproduce.Light
Light energy is the primary source of energy in nearly all ecosystems. Photosynthesis is the process by which plants turn sunlight into food. Visible light is of the greatest importance to plants because it is necessary for photosynthesis this process is directly dependent on the supply of water, light, and carbon dioxide.From the air with the sun’s energy to create photosynthesis. Oxygen is releases as a byproduct.
Photosynthesis ooccurs only in the chloroplasts, tiny sub-cellular structures contained in the cells of leaves and green stems.is responsible for making the leaves and stem green. Limiting any one of the factors can limit photosynthesis regardless of the availability of the other factor it will reduction in photosynthesis and thus a decrease in plant vigor and growth or without the process of photosynthesis, plant stops growing.
There are Factors such as quality of light; intensity of light and the length of the light period (day length) play an important part in an ecosystem. Increased hours of lighting allow the plant to make sufficient food to grow. However, plants require some period of darkness to develop properly and thus should be haves certain hours. Excessive light is as harmful as too little or no light. When a plant gets too much direct light, the leaves become pale, sometimes, turn brown, and die.

MATERIALS

Potting soil gloves cow bean labels
Beaker marker ruler growth chamber
Procedure: Fill the pots with soil and chose type of seed (broad bean/cow bean/sun flower)
for each students. Plant the 5 seeds in each 3 pots deep them 1 cm inside and cover them with soil. Place pots inside growth chamber to provide keep the soil moist by watering it
every day (be careful not to use too much water). Observations seeds germinate and seedlings.
Abiotic factor:Procedure:
Choose an abiotic factor to test on the growth of plants. Determine a way to vary the factor you have chosen. Be sure to include at least three different settings of variable and to keep other
factors constant. Have one plant be a "control" to compare. Obtain 3 pots after seeds have been gown. Label one cup "C=Control" and the
remaining two "A," "B". List the abiotic factor that is different in each cup (light/dark/control) –
(water/water definite)-(temperature/low temperature).Remember what each cup contains.
Each day make an observation of your plants. Mention whether the height of plant (in cm), branch, color, and number of leaves present.
Be sure to keep plants watered with exact amount if needed.
List the Difference in each Cup:A: Abiotic Factor (light/water/temperature) B: limited abiotic factor C: Control Observations: Write the Date in each Box labeled “Day”.

Light EXPERIMENT:
Materials
3 identical plants (bought from grown cow bean seeds) it is fine if they have just emerged from the soil.
measuring cup or water squirt bottle water dark room or box with a lid ruler
Method
Label the 3 plants. The labels will read, A=full Light=Dark (No Light), Control .Water all plants every day or second day with the same amount of water.
Place the No Light plant in a dark room or closed large box. Keep the Full Light plant in growth chamber for the whole length of the
experiment. Write about any changes in the plants, take pictures. Carefully, measure the height
of the plant and describe the number of leaves. Keep the No Light plant in the dark while watering, measuring and
photographing.
Independent Variable: This is the item or thing that is changed by the person doing the test( light)
Dependent Variable: This is the “thing” item or outcome that the person is measuring or observing. Dependent variables are changes that occur due to the independent variable being introduced into the experiment. Plant height, leaves number, branch number.
Control Variables: A controlled variable is all other things that are kept constant so that they do not have an affect or influence on the dependent variable. Same type plants, fertilizer, soil, water, potting soil,

LIGHT Result:
(A) plant that expose to more light, quick changes in their development occurs in their leaves which there color become slightly green and stems are elongate, then the (C) control & (B).(B) Plants in dark are the lowest development compare to (A) & (C), few leaves are slightly wilted
(C) Control plants are developing normally that mean leaves & stems have been changes in color and length but not clear.
(A) There's no changes in Leaves number, stem branch and only increase on length, then the (C) control & (B).(B) Plants in dark, are the still rate of their development compare to (A) & (C)slow ,but there stem length, branch and
leaves number are increase but not too much only in 1 plant(C) Control plants are developing at normal rate that leave number, stem branch & length increase more than (B) but less
(A).

Control
Notes Even though the plants growing in the control place are not as tall as other plants grow, the control looks the healthiest with nice full growth (regular ways) and dark green leaves and stem.Light Plants that receive a large amount of light they really grow and develop in faster rate. However plant that expose to light they are the first how loss there leaves maybe to adapt their self but after that they continue grow.
Characteristic Getting leaves become bigger, stem become Taller than others and
there color change from green to slightly green to yellowish green each day.
DarkNotes at begin it's continue grow, length of not receiving light in many days in certain point leaves start change their color to dry out and losing its organs.However that ware in dark each day leaves, stem. Branch number is reduced
until fall down.
Characteristic Stem and leaves start to grow, change in color to yellow fast than
control and unstable growth of leaves and branch by try to survive. In certain point, in leaves occur scar or holes and number branch
reduced. One's leaves, stem dry out, plant lose their organs and die

DISCUSSION:
The photosynthetic process occurs most readily when the light to makes food for itself to grow. In leaves, Chlorophyll that contains chloroplasts to absorb light. Without light, plant growing in the dark uses their food reserves. Once the reserves have been used the plant will die. Also the stem of the plant rapidly elongates to increase the probability of the plant finding light by using its food reserves, so when plant does not find light has used these reserves, it will die.
Leaf ColorThe color plant's leaves are closely related to how much light it gets. Generally, plants that require a great deal of sunlight tend to have leaves that are rich and dark in color, while the leaves of plants grown in dark and too much light conditions are often lighter yellowish green.
Stem Length and BranchThe amount of light a plant receives has a large impact on the length of its stems. Plants that receive a great deal of light tend to be spindly and long in length, while those grown in low-light or no light conditions are usually shorter. However, dark they become less branch because there no light to get there energy that process photosynthesis and develop new tissue to build up organs.
Comment:The temperature of growth chamber were too height 26c.Plant cover dark box must put in in dark room. Plant in dark, in and out of growth chamber cause them to stress that will affect there growth.
