There is also an increase of the risk of infection‚ learning disabilities‚ impaired physical development‚ and death in the first year of life (Pruitt‚ p 703). The diet that I would tailor to a pregnant woman would consist of daily prenatal vitamins to ensure that she and the baby are getting the essential nutrients even if she is eating

The reproductive system is a collection of internal and external organs (male and female) that work together for the purpose of recreating. Many scientists argue that the reproductive system is the most important system in the body. Without the reproductive system we would not be able to reproduce. 1 For the male reproductive system there are two major parts: testes‚ where the sperm is produced and the penis. In males the penis and urethra belong to both the urinary system and reproductive system

INTRODUCTION A seed is a fertilized ovule that contains an embryo and transforms it into a new plant through the process of germination. Seeds remain inactive until conditions are right for germination. All seeds need water‚ oxygen‚ and proper temperature in order to germinate. However‚ some seeds require full light or darkness to germinate. According to Holm (1996) seeds have chemical inhibitors that prevent germination. A seed will not grow unless those inhibitors are destroyed by things like

Seeds role in the germination process is a critical part in the plant ’s survival. This is practically true in almost all of the plants species (Copeland & McDonald‚ 1995). As germination is defined as "the emergence and development from the seed embryo of those essential structure"‚ which‚ for the kind of seed in question indicates "its ability to produce a normal plant under favorable conditions"(Seed Germination‚ n.d.)‚ this varies on different crops.

University of Bahrain College of science Department of biology The Effect of Salinity on Seed Germination 1) Abstract: Poor seeding growth can be the result of soil salinity. A study was done to examine the influence of NaCl salinity treatment on the germination and seeding grow of vigna radiata using different NaCl concentration 0 (control) ‚ 0.25 ‚ 0.5 ‚ 1.0 ‚ 1.75 . A graph was used to analyze the data obtained from the study. Important differences among the treatment

The Difference Between Onion Red Rum Bunching Seeds Germinating at 70 degrees compared to 40 degrees. Abstract Researchers tested the germination of Red Rum Bunching Seeds in different temperatures. Research shows that depending on the seed germination is most likely to occur at a higher temperature rather than a colder one. According to the results the germination rate for seeds at room temperature was 96% compared to seeds in the fridge which germinated at 0% Review of Literature According
