The effect of nutrient concentration on duckweed growth Gina Neonakis Biology 203L:11 Biology 203:10 November 14‚ 2011 Abstract Lemna minor‚ or duckweed‚ is a small plant that floats on the surface of stagnant water that is usually rich in nutrients. Phosphorus is an important macronutrient in the growth of aquatic plants. We tested the effect of phosphorus on duckweed population growth using a control medium rich in nutrients and compared it to the population growth in a medium that lacked

this study entitled Chicken Bones and Malunggay (Moringa oleifera) Stalks as Plant Growth Enhancer aims to integrate new approaches of enhancing the growth of the plant by utilizing the chicken bones and malunggay plants. In line with the aforementioned discussion‚ the study aims to know the potential of chicken bones and malunggay stalks as plant growth enhancer and compare the quality of the experimental plant growth enhancer to that commercialized product in the industry. Specifically‚ the study

Summary of Findings 1. Music affects the growth of Mung beans. As established in the experiment and based on the data gathered‚ music has a great effect on the growth of Mung beans. The varying degree of effect is dependent on the type or tempo of music to be played. 2. In general‚ music helps in the growth of plants. It hastens the growth of plants. As we conducted and observed our experiment‚ we noticed that classical music helps the Mung beans’ growth. Plants exposed to rock music grew slower than

important things that made a significant effect on the progress of the economy. Today‚ farmers use different ways and techniques in planting crops. These crops are very important to the people because it gives the nutrients that our body need. Prior to this‚ farmers do their best to improve the quality of plants which is very beneficial to the people. Also‚ farming enables the Filipinos to earn money. Because of the increasing demand of the consumers on edible plants and vegetables‚ farmers seek to discover

Adaptive Radiation Adaptive radiation occurs most often in new environment with a variety of different unfilled niches so that plants and animals that are not adapted to those areas can exploit the resources in the respective niches. Once individuals begin exploiting the new niches‚ mutations that will benefit the species will spread throughout the population via natural selection giving the owners an overwhelming advantage over others without the mutation and throughout evolutionary time

The History of the Discovery of Radiation and Radioactivity Introduction: Radiation can be defined as the propagation of energy through matter or space. It can be in the form of electromagnetic waves or energetic particles. Ionizing radiation has the ability to knock an electron from an atom‚ i.e. to ionize. Examples of ionizing radiation include: • alpha particles • beta particles • neutrons • gamma rays • x-rays Non-ionizing radiation does not have enough energy to ionize atoms in the material

Mrs. Pilar M. Macabinguil ENGLISH IV Teacher MPCHS Madam: In partial fulfillment of the requirement in ENGLISH IV‚ I hereby present to you my term paper entitled “What is Radiation?” This term paper presents a research study on the importance about radiation and how it affects the whole world. In doing a research paper is a big task that must be given more efforts‚ time and patient. It will not be built without references. I always think of doing this not for the

that the Fukishima Daiichi nuclear power plant meltdown had a disastrous effect on Japan as a whole. On March 11‚ 2011‚ a 9.0 magnitude earthquake hit the coast‚ just off of Japans borders‚ the earthquake its self‚ moved the earth off of its axis. The massive 5 minute long earthquake moved the earth’s tectonic plates‚ which then triggered a 15 meter high tsunami‚ less than an hour later. There was a 5.6 meter high defence wall‚ bordering the power plant‚ which sank about a meter during the earthquake

Ionizing radiation is a form of radiation that has enough energy to potentially cause damage to DNA and may elevate a person’s lifetime risk of developing cancer. CT‚ radiography‚ and fluoroscopy all work on the same basic principle: an X-ray beam is passed through the body where a portion of the X-rays are either absorbed or scattered

purpose is to provide information on cell phone radiation‚ the risks that can be caused by cell phone radiation‚ and the potential health problems that could result from this. Details of the topic: I am going to talk about the arguments about how cell phone radiation can affect our lives and whether these arguments are accurate or not. Cell phone radiation is a type of electromagnetic radiation that has the ability to cause health issues. The radiation from this device can cause serious brain tumours
