transpiration lab exercise

[Virginia Berg]

Plant ed folks:

My simple transpiration lab (which works for many kinds of grass-shaped leaves)
can be seen at
http://fp.uni.edu/berg/pp/transpiration.htm

It gets the students calculating rates from raw data, and gives a good, simple
project for them to write abstracts about. I have abstract-writing
instructions, too.
