    to say or do anything. I leave the classroom and I sit in front of the closed classroom door crying,refusing to go to the office for something I did not do. I run to Mrs. McGrath crying, burying my salty face in her bony arms. She asks me what's wrong and I tell her Mrs. Keys yelled at me and sent me to the office for talking to Shams when I couldn't since she's too far. Mrs. McGrath calms me down and gives me work to do in the office. I'm so confused why she's actually allowing me to go to the office when I didn't do anything wrong. She gives me a piece of loose leaf paper and sheet of spelling words. She tells me to write them three times. I nod as I hold onto my tears as I walk down the long dark hallway to the office. I remain quiet and the secretary asks me why I am here and I reply with her with nothing but a shrug. I know if I open my mouth I will end up crying so I didn't. As I was copying my words onto my loose leaf paper my mom comes into the office and takes me home. I refuse to tell her what happened and avoid the question why I was in the office as she asks how was my day walking to my locker. I grab my pink barbie backpack and hide my spelling work onto the shelf of my locker since I'm too ashamed for going to the office.that was evidence and me didn't want my mom to know I did. I feel like I deserve to stay even longer and maybe I did talk to Shams. I remain silent and try to change the subject of school as we leave the school. I get in the car trying to…

    zoospore or water, with an average of 10 drops being placed per leaf. Leaves labeled for zoospore inoculation were treated with 10 drops of zoospores (10ul) and those labeled for control were treated with 10 drops of sterile soil water (10uL) using proper pipette technique. Tubs were then sealed, stored and covered in the dark for 7 days at approximately 25°C. Data measurements were conducted by hand, and included the frequency of necrosis as a measure of number of potential infections and the…

    minerals and water from the roots to the leaves (Myburg & Sederoff, 2001). Phloem is also a tubular structure but it is responsible for the translocation of sugars from the leaves to the roots and other parts. The Xylem and Phloem run through the stems of the plants in vascular bundles called veins (BBC, 2014). Off the stems leaves grow, together they are called the shoot. The primary job of leaves is to create energy for the plant. They are thin and broad, thereby maximising the surface area…

    Maple Syrup: A Case Study

    First CO2 enters leaves through the stoma via diffusion. An enzyme, known as Rubisco, will fix the CO2 to form a 3 carbon compound (Khan academy [accessed 2017]). This 3 carbon compound will eventually be converted to sugar and become maple syrup (Perkins and van den Berg 2009). Plants that follow this metabolic pathway are known as C3 plants (Khan academy [accessed 2017]). It is important to note that Rubisco prefers to fix carbon 12 over carbon 13; therefore 13CO2 is more likely to diffuse out…

    The main objective of this study was to determine whether the rate of cavitation in xylem channels correlates with tree height by measuring the water tension from leaves at the top against leaves from the bottom of Acer Platanoides (Norway Maple) trees. We hypothesized that water tension would be higher at the top of trees than at the bottom. The secondary focus was to determine if varying water tension would affect the structural composition of leaves. In order to identify a relationship, we…

    have 24 for rhododendron and 29 for Kalmia. So all in all, all three of these non-native plants are thriving much better than the native plants. Discussion From the results that we have obtained we can proclaim that this experiment supports our hypothesis, which was the ERH hypothesis. Each non-native plant seemed to thrive more than the native plants by quite a lot when compared in data. The one that came the closest to being out of this pattern was the holly since each result was very close…
