Germination is the transition from mature embryos to an actual plant containing both a root and a shoot. This involves having a visible root and shoot as well as cotyledon elongation. (Attree 1990) Once the seed germinates, both a root and a shoot forms, and the seed capsule is pushed up, out of the dirt by the stem before it falls off. The different treatments used in this study affected the overall germination of the Picea mariana seeds. The seeds which were only treated with distilled water…

shoot system there are the apical buds, flowers, stem, leaf, axillary bud, petiole, node, and internode.…

follow the relationship of Elisa and the chrysanthemums throughout the story. We learn the value these flowers have to Elisa and how the theme of inequality of gender ties into with the main symbol. As describe by Joseph Kelly, “a literal symbol us an object with symbolic meaning limited to the very narrow context of a particular work of literature” (12). In this short story the chrysanthemums or flowers represent care, love, and strength but outside of the story the symbol can represent another…

Rich too uses different shades of the color red early on in his poem. In his description of the flowers blooming with certainty, he says “he knows they open / burgundy, violet, pink, amarillo / all the way to their velvet cores” (6-7). The use of the word “open” is particularly interesting because it connotes a sort of unraveling that is visually associated with the opening of a flower. A blooming red flower or opening up these various colors of red is akin to bleeding out, bleeding red. This…

Different disciplines have add terms that can be used indistinguishing {Webb:1999jd} and the lack of standardization has resulted in a confusing terminology. An important contribution for the study of evolution of flowers occurred when the gamete production became more quantitative rather than qualitative measuring their contribution to the genes to the afterward generations at population levels {Lloyd:1972fw, Lloyd:1975ju, Lloyd:1976hd}, and the spatial or temporal…

morphology of malformed and healthy floral buds as well as flowers of mangoes.” In the study, a total of 10 16-year-old plants of mango cv. Amrapali were used in this study. This study also consisted of two field trials, one in March 2011 and the other in March 2012. The experiment contained a control group of healthy and malformed panicles of plants with both flowers and floral buds. In the experimental group, putrescine was applied to flowers and floral buds “of healthy and malformed panicles”…

values each year” (Honey). This means that if the consumer wants anything from an almond to a zucchini, they most likely would not have that product available to them without the honeybee. Flowering plants need some way to transfer pollen from one flower to another in order for reproduction…

The plant of study for this experiment was Mimulus guttatus, also known as the monkeyflower. This plant produces yellow flowers that are bilaterally symmetrical and have five petals. Interestingly, their petals are fused together and contain the anthers and stigma, the reproductive parts of the plant. This morphology makes this species cosexual, so each individual flower contains both male and female parts. Since M. guttatus is hermaphroditic, it is considered herkogamous, which…

To Bee or Not to Bee “According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a bee should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. The bee, of course, flies anyway because bees don't care what humans think is impossible” (script-o-rama.com). Large amounts of bees are dying all around the world due to pesticides and fungicides on crops that contaminates pollen they collect. Bees are responsible for the pollination of more than half of the crops…

There are millions of insects in the world. Though one of the most fascinating species is the bee. Honey bees are well known for living in hives. They are also known for being one of the world’s biggest pollinator. The honey bee is one of the most well known specie of bee, and a well known pollinator. They are separated into different classes by what they do and their appearance. They live interesting lives, but what is life like inside a honey bee hive? I.what is a beehive? A. In the world…
