In this activity, learners conduct a series of hands-on experiments that demonstrate how the working of plants' veins, known as capillary action, enables water to travel throughout the length of a pla

Over the course of several days, learners explore the property of water that helps plants move water from roots to leaves or gives paper towels the capacity to soak up water.

Learners place cut flowers in colored water and observe how the flowers change. The flowers absorb the water through the stem and leaves.

In this combination chemistry and physics activity, learners explore water absorption in dried beans or peas and learn how this affects their physical properties.
