changing society. Fast food‚ for example‚ has grown exponentially over the past half century. By contrast‚ traditional foods such as rice remain a crucial part of food culture. Two essays that highlight this contrast are Seanon Wong’s “Noodles vs. Sesame Seed Buns” and Julie Dash’s “Rice Culture.” Wong’s essay illustrates the significance of fast food‚ whereas Dash’s essay discusses traditional cooking methods. While both authors talk about food and cultural traditions‚ Dash uses an informal voice to discuss

KERNELS AND SEED COATS ABSTRACT In all aerobic organisms‚ production of free radical is balanced by antioxidant defense system. Antioxidants are very important in terms of preventing oxidative stress that may lead to several degenerative diseases. Studies have been done on the sky fruit leaves‚ bark and seeds and they were reported to have many medicinal value. The aim of this study is to evaluate the antioxidant properties of sky fruit kernel and sky fruit seed coat. The seeds of the sky

This is Mendel¡¦s First Law-the Law of Segregation. This experiment investigated the effects of complete and incomplete dominance on the behavior of two different genes for chlorophyll production in tobacco. Two sets of approximately 50-100 tobacco seeds were planted for one week. The plants were the F2 result of two sets of monohybrid F1 crosses Gg x Gg and CyCg x CyCg. A chromosome for these plants has two sets of genes. The gene at one locus has two alleles that code for normal chlorophyll production

Investigating the effects of acid rain in the growth of cress seedlings IntroductionAcid rain is rain or any other form of precipitation‚ which is unusually acidic. It has harmful effects on plants‚ animals and buildings. Acid rain is mostly caused by human emissions of sulphur and nitrogen compounds which react in the atmosphere to produce acids. Acid rain can slow the growth of vulnerable forests and cause leaves and needles to turn brown and fall off. In addition‚ it depletes minerals from the

We have chosen our independent variable to be the amount of light exposed to the cress seeds. Our first petri-dish was allowed to be fully exposed to the light surrounding it‚ while the second was fully wrapped in black paper excluding a 0.5cm slit directed towards the sun. Dependent Variable: Our dependent variable is the reaction/actions to the given conditions‚ for example the growth of the different cress seeds‚ the direction of growth or if it grows at all. Controlled Variable: To keep

use to grow and to produce flowers‚ fruits and seeds. Plants look green to us because they reflect green light. They don’t absorb it. So plants are unaffected by green light. Plants use other colors of light to fulfill basic needs of their life cycle. Plants are most affected by blue light and red light. The color of light is a major consideration when you grow plants indoors. Fluorescent light that contains lots of blue light is good for starting seeds indoors. Full spectrum fluorescent light will
