bright green leaves are arranged alternatively along the stem (weeds.brisbane.qld.gov.au) and long tendrils curl at the tip of the herbaceous weed (weeds.dpi.nsw.gov.au).

despair I thought, “Oh, how I wish these insects would just die out.” Once the pain went away I realized that the disappearance of bees would be an awful loss. While people would no longer have to deal with bee stings, people would also no longer have flowers. Getting rid of the pain and suffering of the world would not be worth the inevitable loss in beauty and emotion. Everything is in balance, and it is impossible to have something good without there also being something bad. In The Giver we…

Albert Einstein once stated, “if the bee disappeared off the surface of the globe then man would only have four years of life left. No more bees, no more pollination, no more plants, no more animals, no more man.” It is vital that everyone be informed about the problem with the bee population and the need to take action to save the bees. SOS-Bees is a denomination of Greenpeace which, according to their mission statement, is the “leading independent campaigning organization that uses peaceful…

name is very special because it offers information about the phage right away. I also chose this name because the first word that Tracy said when she saw my phage was, “Wow, it’s huge!” To get this wonderful phage I collected the soil sample from the flower pots across the street outside of Bessey Hall. I got the sample at the start of class on September 11, 2017. It was a clear day that was 60 degrees, with a depth of about 4cm below the surface of the soil. After I collected my sample I filled…

results in selective breeding. In contrast the worker bees, which are the females, make honey and use their stingers to defend the hive. Each worker bee will produce 1/12 of a teaspoon of honey in their lifetime. Workers also visit between 50 and 100 flowers a day. Worker bees choose who the next queen will be. A worker bee cannot be a queen because they are sterile. Worker bees “live up to their tag line – busy as a bee,” (Helen Yoest). Honeybees have majorly impacted the world economically…

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).

Bees are responsible for the pollination of more than half of the crops…

One can take a deep breath almost anymore and enjoy the smells around them, but what would happen if that was taken away? Once can go outside and see trees, flowers, and bushes surrounding them, but what if that was taken away? What would society do if there was no plants to make oxygen? How would we survive? Today, society takes bees for granted and so they started capturing them and keeping them to pollinate and make honey and instead of using pollen, beekeepers started using substitutes to…

characterized by a different color of bloom. To develop a large singular trunk, the basal suckers should be removed during the early years of growth. The trunk of the crepe myrtle is as much a part of its strikingly impressive visual appeal as the flowers themselves. As the tree varieties mature, the bark periodically sheds, changing colors from gray, to a pale cinnamon, revealing at times a soft, light pinkish hue. When the trunk sheds, the new bark…
