Teach your students about transpiration, the process in which plants get water from the roots, travels through the stem, and evaporates out the stomata, leaf pores, through this fun and interactive lab. Cut the end off of the celery and place it in a cup with food coloring and water. Fill out the pre-lab questions and hypothesis while you wait for the celery to soak. Let the celery soak for at least 24 hours, and then finish the project off with observations in the post-lab questions! Includes vocabulary, videos, pictures, lab questions, and more!

You will need:
2 pieces of celery (per student)

2 cups (per student)

Food Coloring

Scissors

Water

Spoon (per student)
