Nuclear Power Plants and Safety Since the humans use energy sources such as wood‚ coal‚ and oil to produce electricity‚ people want to use better energy sources to produce electricity more. By the mid twentieth century‚ scientists found the method of making incredible energy by using uranium as nuclear fission. Today there are about 400 nuclear power plants around the world and more than 100 nuclear power plants in United States (Howstuffworks). In addition‚ nuclear reactors produced a lot of

spp. have deleterious effects on other plant species. In the study of Bughio et al.‚ using the eucalyptus camaldunlensis as allelopathy agent against Acasia nilotica‚ The Eucalyptus leaf litter and leaf litter extract also caused significant reduction in seedling vigour index of Acacia nilotica. Based on the results of their study it is concluded that allelopathy is a concentration-dependent phenomenon‚ as the concentration of the E. camaldulensis treatments increases‚ its effect increases.

PLANT GROWTH EXPERIMENT Numerous environmental variables influence plant growth. Three students each planted a seedling of the same genetic variety in the same type of container with equal amounts of soil from the same source. Their goal was to maximize their seedling’s growth by manipulating environmental conditions. Their data are shown below. Plant Seedling Mass (grams) Day 1 Day 30

Why did plants exposed to no light grow better than the plants exposed to light? The plants exposed to no light performed better than those exposed to light is most likely caused by the plants exposed to no light having more water than those in light. Even though the amount and frequency of water added to all plants were kept the same‚ the amount of water the plants in no light had access to was more than the amount of water the plants in light had. This is due to two reasons: a) because the plants
