    CHAPTER 1

    PREFACE

    1.1BackgroundAlthough we often think of respiration in terms of humans and breathing, it is

    important to note that it is one of the 7 characteristic processes shared by all living

    organisms, so it must have a universal definition: "processes leading to, and

    including the chemical breakdown (oxidation) of food materials to provide energy

    for life" (Beth, Asher.2010).

    It is important to realise that green plants respire at all times, like all living

    organisms. However, they are unique in that they can also make their own food by

    photosynthesis . As a by-product of this process, they produce a waste substance,

    oxygen, which they release from the cells of their leaves into the air. Of course,

    they may re-use some of this oxygen in aerobic respiration, so some people

    wrongly assume that plants do not need oxygen, or do not respire in the same way

    as other living organisms. What happens in these plants is merely a question of

    balance between the processes of photosynthesis and respiration.

    Seeds are dormant stages of living organisms, and contain embryo plants,

    ready to grow when conditions are right. Most of the time, they appear to be doing

    nothing much, but they are respiring only slowly because they do not need much

    energy, and need to conserve the food reserves they contain.

    However, before they start to grow into plants (and continue the life cycle by

    flowering and producing seeds again), seeds must germinate. In order to do this,

    seeds absorb water which they need in order to mobilise their food reserves using

    enzymes (basically the same process as digestion in animals), then they speed up

    their rate of respiration quite dramatically. They then use the energy released in

    order to sprout roots to absorb more water and minerals, and grow a shoot which

    takes the leaves above ground, so as to make food by photosynthesis. Of course

    this usually happens under the ground, but it is not necessarily so.

    CHAPTER 2

    THEORY

    Definition and The Process ofPlants Respiration

    Respiration is a catabolic reaction that breaks down glucose and other

    nutrients. Germinating seeds take in oxygen from the surrounding air. The oxygen is

    used to convert nutrients stored in the seeds endosperm into energy that the seed uses

    to sprout. Enzymes activated when the seed imbibes (takes in water) make the energy

    conversion possible. Carbon dioxide is given off as a waste product during

    respiration. Plant respiration is the mechanism by which energy stored in the form of

    glucose, a product of photosynthesis, is released for use in plant metabolism.

    Photosynthesis uses light energy from the sun along with water and carbon dioxide to

    produce glucose, or sugar, and releases oxygen into the atmosphere. Respiration

    releases carbon dioxide (Asher,Beth.2010).

    Respiration begins when a seed absorbs water. The enzymes inside seeds have

    to be in suspension to function. Activated enzymes start respiration and use organic

    matter stored in the seed during respiration to make ATP molecules needed for

    growth. Respiration continues in the seed after the sprout has emerged until the seeds

    endospermic material is used up and the cotyledons have produced the sprout

    (Schlesinger, 1997).

    Soaking seeds before planting has been a common practice and seeds need

    water uptake to begin respiring. Dry seeds do respire, but at an extremely low, nearly

    undetectable rate. Stored gases in seeds are released when water is first taken up. This

    is not true respiration. True respiration starts when the seeds testa (seed coating) is

    softened by water and enough water passes the softened coating to activate seed

    enzymes. The seed swells and begins to consume oxygen (Gifford, 1994; Amthor,

    1995).

    Respiration goes in spurts, like seedling growth. A root and a shoot develop as

    the result of the biochemical reactions in the seed. Seed respiration levels off after this

    point. When the root and shoot begin the next growth spurt leading up to true leaves,

    the respiration rate increases again to fuel the growth (Amthor, 1991).

    Respiration process begins with the arrest of O2 from the environment. Gas

    transport processes in plants as a whole takes place in diffusion. Oxygen used in

    respiration entry into any plant cell by diffusion through intercellular spaces, cell wall,

    cytoplasm and cell membrane. Similarly, the CO2 produced by respiration will

    diffuse out of the cell and into the space between cells. This is because the plasma

    membrane and the protoplasm of plant cells are highly permeable to both gas. After

    taking O2 from the air, O2 and then used in the respiration process with several

    stages, among which glycolysis, oxidative decarboxylation, Krebs cycle and electron

    transport. The first stage is glycolysis, which stages the conversion of glucose into

    two molecules of pyruvic acid (atom C3), this event took place in the cytosol.

    Pyruvate acid produced will then be processed in the stage of oxidative

    decarboxylation. Besides glycolysis also produces 2 molecules of ATP as energy, and

    2 NADH molecules that will be used in electron transport. In anaerobic conditions,

    glycolysis results Pyruvate acid is converted into carbon dioxide and ethyl alcohol.

    This conversion process is catalyzed by enzymes in the cytoplasm. In anaerobic

    respiration the amount of ATP produced only two molecules for every one molecule

    of glucose, these results differ greatly with ATP generated from the overall results of

    aerobic respiration is 36 ATP. The second stage of respiration is oxidative

    decarboxylation, namely the conversion of pyruvic acid (C3 atom) into acetyl CoA

    (atom C2) with the release of CO2, this event took place in the cytosol. Acetyl CoA is

    produced will be processed in the Krebs cycle. Other results of NADH that will be

    used in electron transport. The next stage is the citric acid cycle (Krebs cycle) that

    occurs in the matrix and inner mitochondrial membrane, namely the processing stages

    of acetyl CoA by the citric acid compound as the compound which was first formed.

    Some of the compounds generated in this phase, including the one molecule of ATP

    as energy, one molecule of FADH and three molecules of NADH to be used in

    electron transfer, as well as two molecules of CO2. Last stage is the transfer of

    electrons, ie a series of reactions involving the career system of electrons (electron

    carriers). This process occurs in the inner mitochondrial membrane. In this reaction

    electrons are transferred in a series of redox reactions and assisted by the enzyme

    cytochrome, quinone, pyridoxine, and flavoprotein. This electron transfer reaction

    will produce H2O (I Komang Jaya Santika Yasa, 2009).

    The process of respiration can be described as follows:

  • 7/28/2019 Repirasi Kecambah Ani

    6/22

    1.) glycolysis:

    Glucose 2 pyruvic acid + 2 NADH + 2 ATP

    2. Krebs Cycle:

    2 acetyl pyruvate acetyl CoA 2 + 2 CO2 + 2 NADH + 2 ATP

    2 acetyl CoA4 CO2 + 6 NADH + 2 FADH2

    3. Electron transport chain:

    10 NADH + 5O2 10 10 NAD + + H2O + 30 ATP

    2 FADH2 + O22 FAD + 2 H2O + 4 ATP

    Thus, the total energy generated from the process of respiration is 38 ATP.

    (Danang, 2008).

    Function of Plants Respiration (Davey et al., 2004).

    During respiration, glucose is broken down to become products that will fuel

    other processes that the plant will use. Respiration is a multi-stage process that can

    take different pathways depending on the presence or absence of oxygen. Glycolysis

    breaks glucose into two molecules initially, in the cytoplasm, or the main body of the

    cell enclosed within the plant cell wall.

    The presence or absence of oxygen determines how the process will progress.

    If oxygen is present, products from glycolysis will be used within the mitochondria,

    or energy centers, of the cell, to continue respiration. If oxygen is not present,

    fermentation, a less efficient use of energy, occurs.

    Effects of Plants Respiration (Davey et al., 2004).

    During photosynthesis, plants store energy captured during the day, the light

    reaction, to fuel the process of creating sugar chiefly at night, during the dark reaction

    of photosynthesis. As the name implies, the dark reaction is independent of the

    presence of light. Glucose is produced. Glucose will in turn fuel respiration.

    Factors Affecting Respiration Rate

    1. Availability of substrate

    Respiration dependent on substrate availability. Starch content of plants,

    fruktan, or low sugar, do respiration at a low rate. Scarcity of food plants carry on

    respiration of sugar often faster when sugar is provided. Even the leaf respiration rate

    is often much faster soon after sunset, when the high sugar content as compared to

    when the sun rises, while a lower sugar content. In addition, the shaded leaf or leaves

    the bottom usually slower respirated than the upper leaves are exposed to more light.

    If this does not happen, then the lower leaves will die sooner. Differences due to the

    sugar content may not equal of rate of photosynthesis which causes a lower

    respiration rate in the shaded leaves. (Salisbury & Ross, 1995)

    2. Availability of oxygen

    The availability of oxygen will affect the rate of respiration, but the magnitude

    of these effects are different for each different species and even between the same

    organs in plants. Normal fluctuations in the oxygen content of air is not much affect

    the rate of respiration, because the amount of oxygen required for berespirasi plants is

    much lower than the available oxygen in the air. (I Komang Jaya Santika Yasa, 2009)

    3. Temperature

    Effect of temperature factors for respiration rate of plants is strongly

    associated with factors Q10, which is generally the reaction rate of respiration will

    increase for every increase in temperature of 10 C, but this depends on each species.

    For most parts of the plant and plant species, Q10 respiration is usually 2.0 to 2.5 at

    temperatures between 5 and 25 C. When the temperature is increased further to 30

    or 35 C, respiration rate remained elevated, but more slowly, so Q10 begin to

    decline. An explanation of the decline in Q10 at high temperatures is that the rate of

    penetration of O2 into the cell through the cuticle or periderma start inhibit respiration

    during chemical reactions take place quickly. Diffusion of O2 and CO2 are also

    accelerated with increasing temperature, but the Q10 for the physics of this process is

    only 1.1, so the temperature does not significantly accelerate the diffusion of solution

    through the water. Increasing the temperature to 40 C or more, in fact decreasedrespiration rate, especially when plants are in this state in a long time. It seems that

  • 7/28/2019 Repirasi Kecambah Ani

    8/22

    the enzymes necessary to quickly start having denaturation at elevated temperatures,

    preventing an increase in metabolic proper place. In pea sprouts, increase in

    temperature from 25 to 45 C initially rapidly increasing respiration, but after two

    hours of its speed began to decrease. Possible explanation is that a period of two hours

    is long enough to damage some respiratory enzymes. (Salisbury & Ross, 1995)

    4. Type and Age of Plant

    Each plant species has metabolsme differences, thus the need for berespirasi

    plants will be different in each species. Young plants showed a higher respiration rate

    than older plants. Similarly the plant organ that is in its infancy. (I Komang Jaya

    Santika Yasa, 2009).

    Graphic1.The Relationship of Temperature to The Respiration Rate of

    Bean Sprout

    4.2 Analysis of Data

    Based on the data above, we can see the relationship of temperature in room to the

    respiration rate of bean sprout. In incubation room with temperature 37 C has

    respiration rate 0.2375 mL/hour. In room temperature with 32 C has respiration rate

    0.125 mL/hour. So, the higher of temperature, the faster of respiration rate but just

    until the optimum temperature to do respiration.

    In usual room temperature 32 C, the volume of HCl used for titration of the 5mL

    of NaOH (until the pink color is being colorless/white) is 1.5mL in control

    Erlenmeyer, 0.8mL in 1st Erlenmeyer of bean sprout, and 1.2 mL in 2nd Erlenmeyer of

    bean sprout. The volume of NaOH (from 30mL of NaOH volume) which isnt binded

    by CO2 is 9.0mL in control Erlenmeyer, 4.8mL in 1st Erlenmeyer of bean sprout, and

    7.2 mL in 2nd

    Erlenmeyer of bean sprout.The volume of NaOH (from 30mL of NaOHvolume) which is binded by CO2 is 21mL in control Erlenmeyer, 25.2mL in 1

    st

  • 7/28/2019 Repirasi Kecambah Ani

    17/22

    Erlenmeyer of bean sprout, and 22.8 mL in 2nd

    Erlenmeyer of bean sprout. The

    volume of CO2 that as respiration product is 3mL. And the respiration rate is the

    comparison between volume CO2 as the respiration product with the time of saving

    (24 hours), as much 0.125mL/hour.

    In incubation temperature 37 C, the volume of HCl used for titration of the 5mL

    of NaOH (until the pink color is being colorless/white) is 1.8mL in control

    Erlenmeyer, 0.8mL in 1st Erlenmeyer of bean sprout, and 0.9 mL in 2nd Erlenmeyer of

    bean sprout. The volume of NaOH (from 30mL of NaOH volume) which isnt binded

    by CO2 is 10.8mL in control Erlenmeyer, 4.8mL in 1st Erlenmeyer of bean sprout, and

    5.4 mL in 2nd Erlenmeyer of bean sprout. The volume of NaOH (from 30mL of NaOH

    volume) which is binded by CO2 is 19.2mL in control Erlenmeyer, 25.2mL in 1st

    Erlenmeyer of bean sprout, and 24.6 mL in 2nd Erlenmeyer of bean sprout. The

    volume of CO2 that as respiration product is 5.7 mL. And the respiration rate is the

    comparison between volume CO2 as the respiration product with the time of saving

    (24 hours), as much 0.2375mL/hour

    4.3 Explanation

    Based on the data analysis above we can see that, the higher of temperature, the

    faster of respiration rate but just until the optimum temperature to do reaction rate. If

    the optimum temperature has reached, so the reaction rate will be decreased. It

    because respiration is the enzymatic reaction which is involving a lot of enzymes

    work inside. So, if the temperature is so high and in long time in that condition, the

    enzyme which is needed for doing respiration rate is denaturated.

    In this experiment we used bean sprout of green bean with age 2 days,

    because the bean sprout is very active doing metabolism for growth, and there is still

    no photosynthesize process in these bean sprout because they have not chloroplast

    organ yet in their body, so the energy from metabolism is concerning for growing

    activity of these bean. In other hand, the bean sprout in age 2 days starts to have

    cotiledone as the storage tissue (food storage) which contains of a lot of carbohydrate.

    The carbohydrate is the substrate in repiration process to get energy by carbohydrate

    combine with oxygen. So, the carbohydrate contain is decreasing for bean sprout

    growth. The reaction of respiration in bean sprout, as follow:

    C6H12O6 (carbohydrate)+ 6 O2 6 CO2 + 6H2O + Energi

  • 7/28/2019 Repirasi Kecambah Ani

    18/22

    Bean sprouts do breathing to get the energy carried by involving gaseous oxygen

    (O2) as the material is absorbed / required and produce the gas carbon dioxide (CO2),

    water (H2O) and the amount of energy. Basically, the process of respiration has

    functions to get the energy used in metabolism and growth and developmental

    processes to become a mature plant. The larger a plant, then the greater needed for

    energy, so in respiration process is requiring a lot of oxygen too.

    The tested bean sprout us placed in the Erlenmeyer tube which is filled by NaOH

    solution. These NaOH has function to catch the carbon dioxide which is resulted by

    these bean sprout respiration. The respiration process that we tested to sprout is 24

    hours, then the NaOH will be reacted with BaCl2 solution, and droped by PP solution

    as indicator. After it, these NaOH solution will be titrated using HCl to produce salt.

    The whole reaction of our practice activity to know the respiration rate, as follow:

    - When NaOH catch the carbon dioxide as the result of respiration process:NaOH + CO2 NaHCO3

    - When 5mL NaOH is reacted with 2.5 mL of BaCl2 :2NaOH + BaCl2 2NaCl+ Ba(OH)2 Base properties because when it

    reacted again with indicator PP, the color is being redish purple.

    - When doing titration with HCl:2Ba(OH)2 + 2HCl 2BaCl + H2O

    Base + Acid Salt + water

    The amount of HCl needed to change the color of Ba(OH)2 reddish purple to

    the recent disappear (become white or transparent) is the amount of NaOH which is

    not binding the CO2 , or can be written like this: HCl needed = NaOH which is

    not binding CO2. So, from the volume of HCl needed, we can know how many NaOH

    which isnt binding the carbon dioxide.

    NaOH has ability to bind the Carbon dioxide as the product of respiration, but

    not all of CO2 can be binded by NaOH. So, the NaOH which is not binded the carbon

    dioxide is not all of them can be reacted with BaCl2 and produce Ba(OH)2 that has

    white color. Ba(OH)2 is tested with indicator PP, the color is changed to be redish

    purple that indicates the properties of that solution is base. When we titrates the 5 mL

    of Ba(OH)2 with HCl, it results the salt of BaCl2. We can know the solution has

    changed to be salt BaCl2 from the changing of color, if the redish purple color is

  • 7/28/2019 Repirasi Kecambah Ani

    19/22

    changed to be disappear recently of color being transparent, so the solution has been

    the salt.

    In the temperature range of 0C to 45C, a temperature increase will be

    followed by an increase in respiration rate. In incubation room with temperature 37 C

    has respiration rate 0.2375 mL/hour. In room temperature with 32 C has respiration

    rate 0.125 mL/hour. It means that in incubator temperature, the respiration rate is

    faster than in room temperature. Its because in incubator, the temperature is stable or

    constant. The enzyme work is more optimal if it is placed in stable temperature

    without the denaturation of enzyme. As we know, all the respiration reaction is

    involving the enzymes. If the enzyme is not denaturate, so the work of enzyme will be

    optimum in respiration. It means that the enzyme will make faster the glucosechanging to be carbon dioxide, and the number of carbon dioxide produced in

    respiration of bean sprout is more number. If the temperature is higher, the volume of

    carbon dioxide is big binded by NaOH, so that the concentration of carbon dioxide

    which is produced in respiration is bigger too.

    In room temperature the volume of carbon dioxide as the product of

    respiration is fewer than in incubator room. It is because if the temperature is lower,

    the enzyme work is not optimal. It means that the enzyme will make slower theglucose changing to be carbon dioxide, and the number of carbon dioxide produced in

    respiration of bean sprout is fewer. If the temperature is lower, the volume of carbon

    dioxide is few binded by NaOH, so that the concentration of carbon dioxide which is

    produced in respiration is fewer too.

    In control Erlenmeyer which is not filled by bean sprout is also showing the

    respiration process. Because there is another microorganism which is did respiration

    except the bean sprout. We can know it because there is NaOH which bind the carbon

    dioxide, it means there is carbon dioxide production in the Erlenmeyer. Maybe from

    microorganism which live in the Erlenmeyer because we didnt sterilize the

    Erlenmeyer firstly before doing those practice.

    The respiration rate of Erlenmeyer with bean sprout is faster than without bean

    sporut and the carbon dioxide product is more than in without bean sprout, it because

    of the oxidizing substrate in respiratory metabolism. And generally substrates for

    respiration are substances that accumulate in number and relatively many metabolic

    processes involves a series of enzymatic reactions that involve enzymes, the

    respiration rate on the existing Erlenmeyer sprouts are also influenced by the enzymes

    contained in the sprouts and enzymes will increase when the temperature also high

    when the temperature is too high but will also damage the enzyme. While the

    erlenmeyer containing only NaOH, the process of respiration is slower and less CO2

    emitted. This is because it is not influenced by enzyme

    CONCLUSION

    From the experiment we did and the explanation above, we conclude that

    temperature is affecting the respiration rate of bean sprout. The higher of temperature,

    the faster of respiration rate happen, but just until the optimum temperature to do

    reaction rate. In the temperature range of 0C to 45C, a temperature increase will be

    followed by an increase in respiration rate. More of CO2 is produced by the bean

    sprout, the faster of respiration rate.
