Integrated Pest Management of palm oil Control of Oryctes rhinoceros Oryctes rhinoceros‚ as has been indicated in the section on zero burning‚ is a severe pest in such replants. A combination of fore-described cultural‚ chemical and biological control is now being used in an integrated manner to successfully manage outbreaks of the pest. Bagworms and Nettle Caterpillars Bagworms and nettle caterpillars are opportunistic pests that can devastate large areas of oil palm if not detected

water was the opposite; a decrease in weight. This conclusion proves that water diffusion occurs from a hypotonic solution to a hypertonic solution. Osmosis in a plant cell was tested by comparing an Elodea cell in pond‚ distilled‚ and salt water. After obtaining samples of the Elodea cell and preparing a wet mount of each leaf using all three types of water‚ observations of the cells in a compound microscope was the next step. From there‚ comparisons of all three types of solutions in order

Michelle Yeung Bio 101 Cyrus MacFoy June 16‚2015 Diffusion and Osmosis Exercise I. Molecules are always in constant movement. Molecular motion is a form of energy‚ the kinetic energy of molecules. The Brownian movement is the movement of small particles caused by the bombardment of the particles by millions of water molecule. This movement will continue indefinitely as long as there is water. My prediction for this lab is the solution of the water is hypertonic meaning there is a higher concentration

This is sometimes abbreviated: "spec." or "sp." singular‚ or "spp." plural). There are many definitions of what kind of unit a species is (or should be). A common definition is that of a group of organisms capable of interbreeding and producing fertile offspring of both sexes (except in the case
