       PLANT SCIENCE BUNDLE 1
       Kit #AG-S07         $199.85 (Savings of $43 .85)

       THIS BUNDLE CONTAINS THE FOLLOWING KITS:
       30S   Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration Developed by SEPUP  AG  LITERACY  ADD A GROUP  NONCONSUMABLE
               Part One is an investigation into the reactions of photosynthesis and cellular respiration using a series of images and
              statements . Students then discuss these processes relative to ecosystems and the carbon cycle . In Part Two, students
              read about the details of photosynthesis and cellular respiration, including light and dark reactions, glycolysis, the Krebs
              cycle, and the electron transport chain .
              Accommodates unlimited classes, each with 6 groups of four students.
       31     Photosynthesis, Plants and Food                          LITERACY  AG  ADD A GROUP  NONCONSUMABLE
                 In the first activity, students build carbon dioxide and water molecules then “react” them to form sugar and oxygen
               molecules . To reinforce and extend these concepts, students then read about plants as producers and the process of
               photosynthesis, including the role of chloroplasts .
              Accommodates unlimited classes, each with 12 groups of two students.
       66     Seed Staining                                                                    AG  REFILLABLE

                 In this engaging and fun kit, students learn how to differentiate between plant food stored as a simple sugar and food
               stored as a starch. Using a step-by-step procedure, students first dissect the seeds, and then treat them with reagents.
                 This helps to determine the quantity and location of the sugar and starch. The individualized, open-ended worksheets
               provide additional investigations for student exploration .
              Accommodates 15 groups of two students.






       PLANT SCIENCE BUNDLE 2

       Kit #AG-S10         $277.05 (Savings of $60 .75)
       THIS BUNDLE CONTAINS THE FOLLOWING KITS:
       65     Seed Structure and Enzyme Actions                                                AG  REFILLABLE
               An excellent activity for middle school through college, this kit focuses on the structure of dicot and monocot seeds .
               Students first examine and dissect two representative types of seeds - dicotyledons and monocotyledons. After
              diagramming and labeling seed structures, they study the action of enzymes in the germination process and the fate
              of each part of the germinating seed. Finally, students draw conclusions about the enzymatic process.
              Accommodates two classes, each with 15 groups of two students.
       68     Effects of Gibberellic Acid                                                 AG  STEM    REFILLABLE
               This fascinating lab exercise studies the effects of gibberellic acid on plants . Gibberellic acid, when applied to plants,
              causes them to respond differently and at times unpredictably . This is an excellent activity for introducing your students
               to the study of growth hormones and also allows them to experiment with growth behavior . It also provides for special
               projects and additional explorations .
              Accommodates two classes, each with 15 groups of two students.
                                                                                          REFILLABLE  LITERACY
       320    Simulating Threshold Effects of Soil pH on Hydrangea Plants                     AG  ADD A GROUP
               Students model how hydrangea plants are affected by soil pH . The use of a simulation allows students to determine
               the effect of agricultural lime on hydrangea flower color. Students use the data obtained from the simulation to
               determine the positive and negative threshold doses for “agricultural lime.” They also reflect upon the results to decide
               whether they have sufficient data to recommend an optimal level of lime treatment to produce healthy plants with
               large, pink flowers.
              Accommodates three classes, each with 6 groups of four students.
