Aquatic Plant Respiration Demonstration Kit
Product Code : SCL-BLE-11623
Aquatic Plant Respiration Demonstration Kit (SKU SCL-BLE-11623) is a simple glassware set, a 600 ml chemical beaker, a funnel and a glass test tube, used with a water plant to show that plants give off molecular oxygen during photosynthesis. It fits Class 7–10 science and Class 11 biology practicals and B.Sc. plant physiology demonstrations. The kit is supplied by Science Lab Supplies from Ambala, India, to schools, colleges, training institutes, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
The aquatic plant kit's parts and purpose are set out in the rows below. In short, a 600 ml chemical glass beaker holds the water and plant, the funnel covers the plant, and the glass test tube placed over the funnel stem collects the oxygen the plant releases during photosynthesis.

Applications and Experiments for the Aquatic Plant Kit
Despite its name, this kit demonstrates photosynthesis rather than respiration: a water plant under the inverted funnel releases oxygen in light, which rises into the test tube and can be tested with a glowing splint. It suits NCERT Class 7–10 science, Class 11 biology and B.Sc. plant physiology.
- Class 7 and Class 10 science: showing that green plants release oxygen in sunlight, with extra 75 mm glass Funnels for parallel set-ups.
- Class 11 biology: comparing the gas collected in bright light with a set-up kept in darkness.
- Confirming the gas: relighting a glowing splint lit from an Alcohol Lamp, under teacher supervision.
Standard Scope of Supply
Each kit includes a 600 ml chemical glass beaker, a funnel and a glass test tube. A live aquatic plant is needed for the experiment, and whether one can be supplied for your location is confirmed on the quotation; otherwise a local water plant can be used.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
One kit or a full class quantity can be quoted, and the quotation states the price, the packing and the delivery time for that number of kits. Other photosynthesis or respiration apparatus can be listed on the same quotation, so the plant physiology order travels together.
Using its Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Saudi Arabia, Oman, the Philippines, Nepal, Bangladesh and Zambia. If you need a school biology lab equipment supplier in India, reach the team on the contact page, place your selection in the enquiry cart, or follow the lab tender page for formal procurement.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Aquatic Plant Respiration Demonstration Kit show?
It shows that plants emit molecular oxygen during photosynthesis. A water plant placed under the funnel in the 600 ml beaker gives off gas in light, which collects in the glass test tube for testing.
How is the oxygen tested?
Once enough gas has collected, the test tube is lifted out with its mouth kept closed and a glowing splint is put inside. If the splint bursts back into flame, the gas is oxygen.
Who supplies the Aquatic Plant Respiration Demonstration Kit?
Science Lab Supplies supplies it from Ambala, India, to schools, colleges and distributors, and can add photosynthesis apparatus, funnels or test tubes to the same order.
