have damaged. Scientists have addressed the idea‚ in "A life of its own" by Michael Specter‚ of using synthetic biology to mend environmental issues. Synthetic biology combines the "elements of engineering‚ chemistry‚ computer science‚ and molecular biology…to assemble the biological tools necessary to redesign the living world" (Specter 364). There are both positive and negative impacts of a synthetic world on the environment movement. The environmental issues consist pollution‚ depletion of natural

Effects of Plant Nutrient Deficiency Abstract This experiment aimed to determine the effects of nutrient deficiency on plants. This was done by examining tomato plants grown in a medium that contained all the nutrients needed to survive and comparing those results to plants that were grown in nutrient deficient mediums. The biomass and standard chlorophyll content were the focus of the experiment. The biomass was measured by taking the mass of the plant. The standard chlorophyll content was

EFFECTS OF NITROGEN FIXING PEA PLANTS (Pisum sativum) ON GROWTH OF CORN (Zea mays) Introduction Interactions among plant species‚ particularly negative ones‚ have been a concern in agriculture (Levene 1926‚ Russell 1961). Novoa (1981) suggested that it would be advantageous to rotate certain crops by season‚ grow certain crops together‚ or avoid growing certain crops on the same land. Observations indicated that some crops require specific types of nutrients in contrast to other crop
