Maidenhair Tree is a totally unique tree. It is the only surviving member of the Ginkgoaceae family and has no living relatives, making it to be completely isolated from the rest of the Plant Kingdom. To get a true sense of how isolated Ginkgo biloba is, this quote from http://www.kew.org/science-conservation/plants-fungi/ginkgo-biloba sums up its situation quite well, “Ginkgo biloba is the only member of its genus, which is the only genus in its family, which is the only family in its order,…

hillsides, and Keuka Lake State Park. It’s here. But there are some things we can do if we want to keep the species in check, if we want to save hemlock trees and subsequently, our gullies and lakes. I do not promote the use of insecticides and other chemical poisons, ask anyone who knows me. But the HWA scares me enough that I am willing to rethink a few of my beliefs, at least until the little woolly devil’s biological controls can be introduced – which is coming – it’s just that by the time…

it helps us to lessen the hardship carrying things, it helps to increase the pollution. Plastics takes years before it biodegrade. Humans just throw it everywhere, worst, it flows with rivers until it goes to the sea and gives pollution. It has a chemical substance that brings pollution. Numerous species have been pushed into extinction as an increasing portion of Earth's land surface has been appropriated for human enterprise. This improvement affects the environment in a bad way. At the…

Roses aren’t a plant that will be able to last forever in just a vase with water. Believe it or not, they actually do need nutrients daily and a good amount of sunlight to even last 10 days! Studies show that bleach and/or sugar can actually help cut flowers live for longer periods of time. The average lifespan of a cut rose is 4-12 days, which isn’t very long. An experiment will be conducted to prove the theory that bleach and/or sugar improves the lifespan of a cut rose. The most important…

Localization of Antidiabetic Potential of Cassia Tora Linn. Seeds Abstract Cassia tora Linn. is the wild medicinal plant and grows in most parts of India as weeds. In traditional literature, it is found that seeds of Cassia tora Linn. were used as folk medicine for the treatment of Diabetes in different parts of the world. In preliminary phytochemical investigations methanolic extract showed positive tests to sterols, carbohydrates, flavanoids, phenolic compounds, saponins and anthraquinine…

Humans May Be The Cause of The Sixth Mass Extinction Where have all the animals gone? Mass extinctions are periods in time where large numbers of species go extinct. Newsela staff claims that "The most famous mass extinction came from space, but the biggest might have been because of carbon dioxide." Scientists predict that humans could be the cause of the 6th mass extinction. Humans burned off ages worth of different types of fossil fuels, because of this the climate has changed. According to…

much of your respect and promise that this will not happen again. What does it take for something to grow? The main answers are things like water, air, and nutrients; but, the main thing that sparks the chemical reactions within every seed is light. A little light can go a long way, not only in plants but in people. The Greek Enlightenment is something that has never been seen before where... “In that black and fierce world a little centre of white-hot spiritual energy was at work... unlike all…

low-density wood species, such as Eucalyptus, Pinus and Acacia are largely used for timber, paper pulp, charcoal and fuel, because they have short rotation period and they have advantages in competing for light, nutrients and water resources over native plants (Li et al., 2014; Nguyen et al., 2014; Chaudhary et al., 2016). In temperate and boreal zones, Populus are planted to provide shelter, protect soil and water resources, and sometimes produce wood fuel. For Salix species, they can be used…

How does light filtration affect the rate of photosynthesis? Introduction: Photosynthesis is an essential process plants use to convert light energy from the sun into chemical energy, released as glucose. Some of the limiting factors of photosynthesis include temperature, amount of light, the concentration of carbon dioxide, availability of water and the concentration of chlorophyll. Fig.1- The word and symbol equations for photosynthesis. The aim of the practical is to model the rate of…
