Preliminary experiment:
In my preliminary experiment I will be aiming to find out how different light source like LED and the
distance between the light source and the pondweed affect the oxygen production in pondweed. In
my preliminary experiment I will have different distance length between my pondweed and the light
source like going from 0, 8, 14, 16, and 20cm. My overall aim of the investigation is to see how
different light intensities affect the oxygen production in pondweed. The preliminary experiment is
done before the actual practical to see what goes wrong and could also see if the equipments and or
the method provides valid or effective results that can prove the hypothesis.
