soooooo coooooool

[@DisneyVacationFamily]

Love this! Luca enjoyed it as well... he just loves learning about this stuff!

[@KidsFunScience]

Yeah its a fun experiment. thanks Ken

[@augustusgreen7881]

can you do the ear and nose switch to help how to control your brain?

[@KidsFunScience]

Good Morning Augustus, I don't know this experiment ear and nose switch. Please explain what it is? thanks Ken

[@staczs]

This looks like fun to do with my little niece but have to wait for the weather gets warm outside he got cold again.

[@KidsFunScience]

Yeah good idea to wait, its in the 60's and 70's here in California. : ) thanks Ken

[@staczs]

It was nice out couple days ago but that's Michigan weather 🙆‍♀️

[@KidsFunScience]

In time you can try. : )

[@Aramalisadventures]

CooL one Ken! I should give it a try as well with my children! But I should try to find a novelty 🧐🤔🤔🤔

[@KidsFunScience]

Yes I think your kids would like it. thanks Ken

[@josu-sd8oz]

cool ! i did not know leafs breath😀👍❤

[@Placidia-t4w]

There's no sunset in my side it's raining and don't have torch to do it so how should I do

[@KidsFunScience]

Follow instructions and just put out in the afternoon. The leaf will still produce bubbles. Thx

[@josu-sd8oz]

Does it matter what type of leaf

[@KidsFunScience]

Hi Josu, No it should not matter. Let me know what kind you use. thanks Ken

[@Johan-bb4sy]

Maybe it is also interesting to have the leave half submerged and half above water. Then it is still able to take up CO2 from the air. The photosynthesis now taking place, is because the CO2 already present in the leaf, I think.

[@KidsFunScience]

Good Morning Johan, great suggestion. I will give it a try. Thanks for watching.

Experiment 👌👌👌👌

[@MichelleGayscienceteacher]

Great Ken!

[@KidsFunScience]

Thank you Michelle.

[@Ricktocool]

cool

[@KidsFunScience]

Thank you as this is one of my favorite experiments. Thanks for watching

yo! I bob

Coochie Photosynthesis. Sunlight on fresh green leaves and transpiration. Our lungs of this planet this earth.❤

[@vegiravi2835]

Ok

[@yaphelename]

why use warm water?

[@KidsFunScience]

Good question. I have always used warm water, but it would be fun to see the difference if a leaf was in cold water and one in warm water. I wonder what would be the results? Have you tried cold water? Thx KEN

[@josu-sd8oz]

@@KidsFunScience do another video of a leaf in cold water please

[@georgiana6598]

Warm H20 takes oxygen molecules out of the leaf pores faster than cold water. ​@@KidsFunScience

[@KervhinCristoria]

I have no idea what's going on in our environment..

[@erenYeager-h2q]

Stomata

[@hunk3891]

I thought respiration means Oxygen in and CO2 out.

[@GivenAndaya]

I’ve been trying this multiple times but it doesnt work for me for some reason 🥲 i’ve been doing exactly like what you do but it doesn’t show any bubbles for me 🥲🥲 the only difference in what i do is i put rlly hot water and the sunlight here sometimes goes away but only for a little while..

[@KidsFunScience]

Good Morning @GivenAndaya, Sorry its not working. Let me see if I can help you to get it to work. My suggestions would be, you need more sunlight, so you might have to try this experiment when the weather gets better and you have sunlight. The leafs use the sun’s energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and sugar. The gases carbon dioxide and oxygen travel in and out of the leaf through tiny holes called stomata. When you try again in the sunlight let me know if it works? thx Ken

[@GivenAndaya]

@@KidsFunScience just tried it! It works well now 😁😁 thanks for making these videos 🫶

[@KidsFunScience]

Good Morning @@GivenAndaya Your welcome. That is great and I'm glad to hear it works. Science is AWESOME! Thank you for sharing this with me. Cheers! Ken
