microorganisms. Their cell structure is unique in that they don’t have a nucleus and most bacteria have cell walls similar to plant cells. They come in all sorts of shapes including rods‚ spirals‚ and spheres. Some bacteria can "swim" around using long tails called flagella. Others just hang out or glide along. Are bacteria dangerous? Most bacteria aren’t dangerous‚ but some are and can make us sick. These bacteria are called Pathogens. Pathogens can cause diseases in animals and plants. Some examples

different concentrations of salt water effect plants. The test that will be performed will prove which concentration will have the worst effect. The hypothesis is that by measuring the plants growth each day‚ the largest concentration of salt will harm the plants the most. First‚ the plants were purchased and the water was prepared with the salt concentrations. Second‚ the plants were watered each day with the different concentrations of salt. Third‚ the plants’ growth were observed and recorded each

“The Private Life of Plants: Traveling” was a useful documentary to help clarify my understanding on how plants manage to spread their seeds and germinate. I enjoyed watching the different time lapses for the species of plants and it helped me to see exactly what happens rather than reading it in a book or seeing a simple picture. I was amazed at all the different mechanisms plants used to travel around and not stick to just one area. I did not expect the pointy spines of plants to allow them to grip

The CELL THEORY‚ or cell doctrine‚ states that all organisms are composed of similar units of organization‚ called cells. The concept was formally articulated in 1839 by Schleiden & Schwann and has remained as the foundation of modern biology. The idea predates other great paradigms of biology including Darwin’s theory of evolution (1859)‚ Mendel’s laws of inheritance (1865)‚ and the establishment of comparative biochemistry (1940). Ultrastructural research and modern molecular biology have

INTRODUCTION Those plants that have healing properties are termed as medicinal plants or herbs. The plant kingdom is divided into several groups‚ but the botanical classification is beyond the scope of this section. However‚ medicinal plants can be simply classified as trees‚ shrubs‚ woody perennials‚ annuals and biennials‚ and climbers. (http://eatt1.tripod.com/amp1.html) Medicinal plants consist of components of therapeutic values and have been used as remedies for human diseases
