The uses of plants in developing and producing vaccines For thousands of years‚ society has been brought to the brink of disaster thanks to the spread of resilient diseases and the plague of hardy viruses. However‚ humans have been aware for just as long of medicinal defence mechanisms against these ailments. The ancient Egyptians and Romans‚ as well as the primitive islander and Aboriginal communities‚ knew that certain herbaceous matter could help heal the wounded and sick. In more recent times

from the aerial parts of plants‚ especially leaves but also stems‚ flowers and roots. Leaf surfaces are dotted with openings called stomates that are bordered by guard cells. Collectively‚ the structures are called stomata.[1] Leaf transpiration occurs through stomata‚ and can be as a necessary "cost" associated with many processes such as the opening of the pistil and allowing the diffusion of carbon dioxide gas from the air for photosynthesis. Transpiration also cools plants and enables mass flow

Fast Plants By: Kinser Haselhuhn Biology 111 Section Y Professor Brittingham 4/19/13 Abstract: Introduction: Materials and Methods: To begin the fast plants experiment‚ each group received the F1 generation seeds for their designated phenotypes. After receiving the seeds‚ the seeds were then planted into Styrofoam “quads” allowing the seeds to germinate. The seeds were then allowed to grow under a fluorescent light bank for 5 weeks. Throughout the growing of the seeds‚ each plant

Introduction For the past 30 years Scientist have searched desperately for the answer to salt toleration within plants. The damaging effects of salt accumulation in agricultural soils have influenced both ancient and modern day civilizations alike. Worldwide‚ an estimated 24.7 million acres of once agriculturally productive land are being lost annually due to irrigation-induced salinity‚ according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Thus‚ crop production is limited by salinity on 40% of

Carnivorous Plants In a world where plants are at the bottom of the food-chain‚ some individual plant species have evolved ways to reverse the order we expect to find in nature. These insectivorous plants‚ as they are sometimes called‚ are the predators ‚ rather than the passive prey. Adaptations such as odiferous lures and trapping mechanisms have made it possible for these photosynthesizers to capture‚ chemically break-down and digest insect prey (and in some cases even small animals.)
