Autumn Leaves Trees have green leaves due to the abundance of chlorophyll and chloroplasts in leaves. These organelles absorb‚ store and convert light energy from the sun and is necessary photosynthesis to occur. These organelles reflect green light which attributes to the green color of leaves. The leaves change color in the fall and winter do to the shortened times of daylight and lower temperatures. Trees also divert nutrients from leaves to store in twigs and branches for preparation of winter

Oil price hike is one of the major problems in the country. To get rid of this problem‚ the researchers tried to increase the sources of oil to lower its price. The researchers used Jackfruit seeds as alternative source of oil. It is because jackfruit was available in the market. It also has the properties and substances oil has. The researchers gathered the seeds and extracted liquid from it‚ and it was heated. After 5 minutes‚ the researchers removed it from heat. The materials used are Jackfruit
