organic materials which are used for cellular function (Wikipedia). Plants are an example of this kind of organism. A current scientific topic in regard to photoautotrophs is the topic of non-native invasive plants. When a plant is non-native‚ or exotic‚ it means that it is not originally from the United States. They are often brought to an area by accident‚ possibly for agricultural or horticultural purposes. An invasive plant is one that is established‚ then expand and reproduce on their own

I predicted it this way because plants are made to grow in tough conditions and I dident think crowding would have any effect.

auxins(IAA)‚ cytokinins(CYT)‚ ethylene(ETH)‚ and gibberellins(GA) and each has a different purpose. Auxins will control cell elongation‚ cytokinins promote the act of cell division‚ ethylene causes the ripening of fruit‚ and gibberellins will elongate plant stems. “Leaf abscission or the loss of leaves is controlled by two different modes of hormone activity: one to suppress abscission activity and the other to stimulate it” (Mcfarland 1995‚ 42)‚ and IAA is produce naturally in the leaf blade and prohibits

STUDY GUIDE INTEGRATED SCIENCE 10 PLANT UNIT DO YOU/CAN YOU…. 1. Understand that both plants and animals (eukaryotes) undergo a similar process for cellular division/reproduction? Both plant and animal cells undergo mitosis and meiosis. In plants‚ there is an alternation of generations; the gametophyte generation‚ where haploid gametes (pollen and ovule; sperm and egg) are produced via mitosis. Then the sporophyte generation combines these two into spores via meiosis‚ resulting in a diploid

microbe‚ a human‚ or an animal‚ then you are most likely plant. Plants and trees cover about thirty percent of the planet’s surface‚ as stated in NASA’s Earth Observatory division. They use a process called photosynthesis‚ which allows plants to take energy from the Sun and later using it as food‚ as well as producing oxygen through the process of respiration. So how does it happen? The process of photosynthesis occurs as follows. First‚ the plant uses the sunlight and the green color in their leaves

unit of a plant that contains a mature ovule with an embryo. The seed is made up of the seed coat hard shell over the seed‚ two cotyledons‚ fleshy membranes that store food‚ an epicotyl‚ which forms the primary shoot‚ the radicle‚ the primary root of the seed‚ and the hypocotyl‚ the stem of the epicotyl. When the seed is triggered by water to sprout‚ a process called germination begins. Germination refers to the sprouting of a fungal seed or‚ more commonly‚ an angiosperm or gymnosperm plant. The process

Introduction There are both virulent and non-virulent bacteria and fungi that grow on plants. It is difficult to distinguish between the two without proper inspection and diagnosis of the diseased plant to know whether the bacteria or the fungus in question is the virulent or non-virulent one. Therefore pure cultures need to be isolated to know with absolute certainty which is the causative bacteria or fungus. Potato dextrose agar is a good nutrient agar for mycelia to thrive on which is present

DISCUSSION Bryophytes are seedless plants without specialized water conducting tissues. Bryophytes include mosses (phylumBryophyta)‚ liverworts (phylum Marchantiophyta Hepatophyta)‚ and hornworts (phylum Anthocerophyta). They are plants that virtually everyone has seen‚ but many have ignored. The most commonly encountered group is the green mosses that cover rotting logs‚ anchor to the bark of trees‚ and grow in the spray of waterfalls‚ along streams and in bogs. Even though mosses often thrive in
