The anti-greenhouse gas activists are calling for thermal power to be replaced by other cleaner sources of energy.

populations of six economically important species in the genus Brassica have unusual potential for resolving many problems in plant biology and for use in education. Rapid-cycling brassicas can produce up to ten generations of seed per year and serve as models for research in genetics‚ host-parasite relations‚ molecular biology‚ cell biology‚ plant biochemistry‚ population biology‚ and plant breeding.

after a week of measuring the biggest plant per bag. Each day the biggest radish plant in site A was measured and by day five the largest plant was 5 centimeters long‚ and had developed small green leaves. By the 5th day site B and D’s seeds showed no signs of growing and length remained at 0 centimeters. Site C and D’s superior seed both grew a total of 3 centimeters according to the 5th day measurements. Both the graph and table display the same results. The plants were measured with a ruler and then
