Abstract: This thesis examines Deepa Mehta’s trilogy—Water‚ Earth‚ Fire—and the trilogy’s exploration and contestation of colonial‚ anti-colonial nationalist‚ and religious ideologies as intersecting with patriarchal norms to enact symbolic and actual violence on the bodies of women. I argue that Mehta’s trilogy foregrounds the ways in which patriarchal nationalism legitimizes violence against women’s bodies and sexualities through different social and cultural practices and discourses which are

ABSTRACT This study was conducted to determine the possibility of using yellow bell seeds crude extract as fuel.Mature yellow bell seeds were collected‚ cleaned‚ and ground using mortar and pestle. Water was added before the juice was extracted. To remove excess water‚ the juice extracted from the seeds was boiled and was allowed to cool. Testing on the use of the crude extract for lighting purposes then followed. Results show that it is possible to use the crude extract as substitute for kerosene

compound(Liebeskind‚ 2013). Seed germination is simply the process in which a seedling sprouts from a seed and begins it’s growth. The most important factors for seed germination is the temperature‚ the presence of oxygen and the exposure to water. For a seed to germinate‚ the temperature must be between 60 and 75 degrees fahrenheit. Oxygen and water must be present as well. Lastly the seed must be exposed to light(Britannica‚ 2013).

She asks her audience to consider that people-seeds were simply drifting around in the air and‚ if the circumstances are right‚ one may float into a window and take root in the carpet‚ despite if all precautionary measures were taken.

the germination of seeds. Most factors are external but there are also some internal conditions that affect the germination of seeds‚ even though this is quite rare. The most common and the most important external conditions and factors that affect the germination of seeds are oxygen‚ water‚ temperature and also in some cases light or darkness. Some plants require several variables for successful seed germination. As this is quite rare‚ this often depends on the individual seed and its natural habit
