.... in carbon dioxide and makes the six carbon sugar glucose as described in Vodopich's definition.
For the first part of our experiment we wanted to observe how using paper chromatography separates pigments. Paper chromatography works since the pigments in plants have different polarities, weights, and sizes. Although, it was hard to make a clear hypothesis as to how the pigments would travel due to my lack of knowledge of such pigments, I believed that the different pigments would indeed ....
