Plant Growth Lab The world is full of variety of species that help make the Earth a unique place to live in. Many of the species that live on Earth are plants. Plants can be Bryophytes or Tracheophytes. Bryophytes are non vascular and lack roots, stems and leaves. Tracheophytes can be spore producing or seed producing. Seed producing Tracheophytes can be Gymnosperms or Angiosperms. Gymnosperms have seeds that are enclosed in a cone and would include Pines and Coniferous trees. Angiosperms…

They all marched closer to each other. When the chipmunk leader said that they just needed some acorns for the winter because they took all…

Introduction- Greta Arabidopsis is a plant commonly used in genotype tests. They display qualities that make them convenient for altering their genes without a lot of trouble. Consequently, there are several different genotypes of Arabidopsis. However, it is rather hard to test exactly what the genotypes do to the plants without some sort of stress being placed on them. This is a record of the experiments produced and their results. These experiments were important due to their nature- many…

The color we see in plants (green) is the color most reflected or transmitted by the pigment, chlorophyll a. (pg. 192) D. List three pigments that contribute to primary production. Indicate in which entities you find those pigments. There are three major pigments in chloroplast that contribute to the primary production: Chlorophyll a, Chlorophyll b and Carotenoids. (pg. 192) ● Chlorophyll a: Most abundant pigment in plants. Chlorophyll a absorbs light with wavelengths…

They clean our beaches and salt marshes, filter out small things in the ocean, and shed their old shell, just to eat it again. What kind of animal could this be? A Fiddler crab! They do all those things to help themselves. They don’t even know they are helping the entire world! Fiddler crabs live in many places. They live in mangroves, salt marshes, and on sandy and muddy beaches. Fiddler crabs are important to salt marshes because when they feed and burrow, they clean the salt marshes and…

experiment the following terms are defined as such: Growth: the amount in inches that a plant grows vertically.

Title Animal extinction has reached an all time high in recent years. Scientist believes that animal extinction as “one of the biggest environmental threats to the planet.”() Although there are many accusations of what this cause may be, there is an understanding that human interaction is a key factor when it comes to the extinction of animals. Human’s interactions have increased over the past few decades both good and bad. This threat has evolved from a local to a global scale. Scientists have…

Each group was assigned a specific ratio of seeds to plant in their flat. With varying amounts of buckwheat and oat, each group had a total seed count of 100. My group, Group One, received 100 oat seeds, Group Two received 75 oat seeds and 25 buckwheat seeds, Group Three received 50 oat seeds and 50 buckwheat…

effected the growth of the Tomato plants. My prediction was that the fertilised plant will grow more then the plants that were water. The fertilied plants will grow more because the fertiliser has element that the water cant give the plants that make it grow. The elements that fertiliser has is nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. This is why the fertilised plants grew so much.The experminent was used to investigate the difference between the growth of Tomato plants with fertiliser and with…
