A few days ago we did a celery experiment. When the water evaporates from the leaves through stomata, it creates suction. The suction pulls the water up to the leaves through pipes in the stalk.
then it evaporate. It's part of the water cycle!
In the second part of the experiment, we split the stalk. Then we put the two sides in two different colors of water, red and green. While the leaves were still green, we drew a picture of the plant. We waited a day to see what happened.
can you see green?
can you see red?
this is the stalk filled with veins.
the veins are filled with food coloring and water.
the plant looks like a tree.
Here are the entrances to the pipes.
