money. A prairie is a large open area of grassland. There are a lot of prairies in the Mississippi River valley. Prairies are also treeless environments that are dominated by herbaceous plants. The environments also include varying levels of soil fertility. They also provide a safe habitat for a very diverse plant and animal community. Andropogon Gerardii (big bluestem) is the dominant grass species found in the tallgrass prairie ecosystem. It can reach up to 8 feet (2.4 meters) in height and…

How does cyanide affect plant growth by Ethan G. and Gabe M. This project is to help determine the effects of cyanide being planted with the seed of a plant. Some seeds naturally have cyanide in them such as apple seeds, peach pits, and apricots. So what happens if a lima bean is planted with a minute dose of cyanide when compared to one without? Cyanide is found in the seeds of many common fruits, cigarette smoke, and combustion products like plastic. It gets used to make paper, textiles,…

What is the Endangered Species Act? Why was the Endangered Species Act created? Why do we care for endangered species? The Endangered Species Act was made so that our native plants, animals, and fish would not go into extinction. This Act requires that Federal and State agencies provide suitable conditions for endangered and threatened species, not to jeopardize from federal activities but to protect and save our native species from extinction. Throughout history there have been many events to…

Chrysanthemum belliam The Chrysanthemum belliam is an organism that belongs to the Domain Eukarya and Plantae Kingdom. Chrysanthemum are flowering plants native of northern eastern Europe and East Asia. However, this particular species of Chrysanthemum, belliam, was recently discovered in the western part of Africa, around the Gold Coast. The coastal climate of this region in Africa has produced an abundance of Chrysanthemum belliam, so lets take an indepth look at this beautiful unique…

cultures have been growing plants without soil since ancient times. Dating back to the Aztecs, people were growing plants on a river. The Hanging Gardens of Babylon, one of the Seven Wonders of the World, was considered a type of hydroponics. Theophrastus, (372-287 B.C) a Greek philosopher, undertook various experiments in crop nutrition. There were even hieroglyphic records of gardening without soil (Resh, 2016). The first scientific experiment to discover the essentials for plant growth was…

luminescent glow. I witnessed this event with awe, blinded by the sunlight. It was the first day working at Tule Ponds, a vast area of flora and fauna. Tule Ponds at Tyson Lagoon is a reserve for wildlife in wetlands and marshes. You can find thousands of plants, shrubs, and trees in the area. White Alders, Tules, and Broad Leaved Cattails are bountiful. Doves, Herons, Egrets, and Bullfrogs appear as common sights. Each cubic inch provides a multitude of detail that connects humans to nature. I…

Outline of Experiment Title: The effect of phenoxyethanol on plant growth Question: Is phenoxyethanol, a preservative for several cosmetic products, improve the rate of plant growth on lima beans? Hypothesis: If the phenoxyethanol is mixed with the soil that is given to a lima bean plant, the plant will continue to grow. Based on following research I believe the lima bean plant will grow at the same rate as the control group because according to the classification scale of Hodge and Sterner,…

One of the ways that nature recycles matter is through the carbon cycle. The carbon cycle is carbon cycling through the global environment. Carbon is a chemical element and a key component of many systems in the biosphere, from acting as part of the earth's thermostat to being one of the key elements in photosynthesis, which is when plants make sugars for energy. In order for the ecosystem to function properly, all parts need an adequate supply of carbon. This is usually not a problem since…

the main producer is plant that plays a very significant roles in order to sustain the growth population. Basically, plant producing their own food by undergo photosynthesis in the help of sunlight energy. The next trophic level which is herbivore will consume it and proceed to next food web. This phenomena lead to determine either the growth rate in certain ecosystem or habitat is higher or lower. For example paddy plants, it is only life once, which means once the paddy plants harvest it will…
