between consecutive seedlings of Nasturtium officinale influence the germination‚ and consequently the lengths of the shoots and roots of the plant. Theory: Intraspecific competition occurs when members of the same species have the same niche and therefore compete for the same resources. Competition is an interaction between organisms which live together in a habitat and compete for the limited supply of resources. The seeds of the water crest plants used in the following experiment‚ known as

9.1.2 3 difference between monocots and dicots 3 differences between monocots and dicots 1. Monocots have parallel venations along their leaf 2. Dicot roots have X-shaped xylem whereas monocots are organized into a ring 3. Dicot stem xylem form a ring around the outside whereas monocot xylems are scattered 9.1.3 Distribution of tissues in leaves and functions In the leaf you have xylem and phloem tissues. Xylem tissues act like transport tubes‚ transporting water and minerals. Phloem tissues

The purpose of this experiment was to discover if using sugar and tonic water with water would increase the growth rate of barley. In this experiment‚ we changed two variables‚ the independent variables sugar and tonic water. We added one tablespoon of each substance to four ounces of water which will be used to nourish the plant. We tested these experimental controls to determine if any of the substances would help accelerate the growth of the barley. If the sugar water or tonic water mixture successfully

The embryo sac expands to support growth‚ and the nucellus is crushed out of existence‚ which in return give nutrients to the embryo and endosperm. The integuments that surround the embryo sac become a tough‚ protective seed coat called testa. The micropyle is not removed to continue the intake of oxygen and water at germination. The water content of the seed decreases to prepare the seed for dormancy

Before I started my SAE project‚ mending a Pasture in winter‚ I spent many hours researching how to do it correctly and the types of plants that would be the best fit. The plants used to seed are often the most neglected part of a pasture‚ yet it usually provides the majority of nutrients to the stock. Well-managed pastures that are properly grazed have the potential to minimize feed costs and increase long-term health or your field. Pasture is the most natural diet for animals. Pasture plants
