The Effect of Vitamin C on Plant Growth Aim: To determine the effect of salt/ sugar/ caffeine/ vitamin C on seed germination. Hypothesis: The plant will grow slowly or die due to the Vitamin C. Equipment: * 2 cups * 2 measuring cups * Water * Vitamin C/ orange Juice * Soil * 4 seed (2 for each cup) * A ruler Method: 1. Pour ¾ of soil into each cup 2. Plant 2 seeds into each cup. Put it about half way down the soil 3. Mix 1mL of orange juice with 5mL

The Germination of Seeds of the Native Plant Acacia decurrens Practical Report Biology 1 Introduction: In a botanical sense‚ “germination is the process of emergence of growth from a resting stage.” (http://encyclopedia.laborlawtalk.com/germination). Under favourable conditions‚ the seed begins to germinate‚ and the embryonic tissues resume growth‚ developing towards a seedling. Soils from a Cumberland Plain Woodland community were investigated to determine the presence of a soil seed-bank;

“Do Different Music Genres Affect Plant Growth?” The purpose is to test how different music genres affect plant growth. The test may or may not validate the hypothesis made‚ that the plants exposed to classical music will be effected in a more positive way than the plants which are exposed to hardcore music. The procedure is as follows: Nine dyanthus flowers are separated into three groups: classical music‚ control group‚ and hardcore music. Every morning plants are watered and left outside for

digestive enzymes are then released in the small intestine to help digest food. The main functions of enzymes are: • to digest carbohydrate‚ protein and fat (the three parts of food that supply calories); • to help with weight gain; and • to promote nutrient absorption. Because there appears to be a connec- tion between better lung function and higher body weights‚ it is very important to take enzymes with all meals and snacks. More than 90% of people who have CF take pancreatic enzyme replacements

1. Answer the questions on slide 2 What are macronutrients? • Macronutrients are nutrients that come in large amounts. They include water‚ carbohydrates‚ proteins‚ and fats. What are micronutrients? • Micronutrients are nutrients that come in small amounts. They include minerals and vitamins. How are minerals defined? What functions do they play? • Minerals are essential for the function of our cells. They are inorganic because they don’t contain any carbon. Minerals help your muscles‚ bones‚ blood

composition of medium for the tissue culture is the most important key factor in the successful culture of plant cells. The medium should be accurately defined of inorganic and organic chemical additives so as to provide i) the nutrients for the survival of the plant cells‚ tissues and organs under culture and ii) the optimal physical condition of pH‚ osmotic pressure‚ etc. In the culture of plant cells formulating optimum type of medium favorable for in vitro culture was achieved many years ago

Scientific Name of Plants Ornamental Perennials The following is a list of the common plant names cross referenced to the scientific name of plants. The list represents some of the most popular varieties of perennial plants. The scientific names of plants is based on taxonomy‚ the science of plant classification. Each name has two parts‚ the genus and the specie. This is referred to as the binomial (two names)system founded by Linnaeus‚ a Swedish botanist. Some species will have a third name‚
