In this lab you will be investigating the effects of different environmental factors on the rate of transpiration in a plant. You will be using a. potometer. (a pipette attached to a rubber tube) to measure the rate of water loss in a plant.n this lab you will be investigating the effects of different environmental factors on the rate of transpiration in a plant.

The carâs radiator acts as a heat exchanger, transferring excess heat from the engineâs coolant fluid into the air. The radiator is composed of tubes that carry the coolant fluid, a protective cap thatâs actually a pressure valve and a tank on each side to catch the coolant fluid overflow.
The thermostat in your car is responsible for controlling the amount of coolant released into your engine. When your car first starts up, the thermostat is closed and does not allow coolant into the engine until it is warmed up. The thermostat should open and allow coolant in once the engine is adequately heated.Sometimes the thermostat fails and remains closed.ocate your radiator and remove the cap. 3. Unfasten the radiator drain cock located near the bottom of the radiator and allow some of the coolant to drain out into a container with a lid until the level is below the upper radiator hose.
