Analysis of Personal Nutrient Intake Part 3 b) Food energy is important for providing energy for one’s daily activities and body function. However‚ there should be a balance between the amounts of energy you consume through foods with the energy you expend during the day. According to the DRIs Acceptable Macronutrient Distribution Ranges for adolescences‚ the Canadian diet should provide 45-65% of energy as carbohydrate‚ 20-35% of energy as fat‚ and 10-30% of energy as protein. After analyzing

a biological environment consisting of all the organisms living in a particular area‚ as well as all the nonliving or abiotic‚ physical components of the environment with which the organisms interact‚ such as air‚ soil‚ water and sunlight. In a typical ecosystem‚ plants and other photosynthetic organisms are the producers that provide the food. (Leibold) Ecosystems can be permanent or temporary and they usually form a number of food webs. Examples of ecosystem include: Marine Ecosystems: oceans‚ coral reefs‚ intertidal

However‚ with modern genetics and the theory of evolution‚ we know that it is unlikely that members of the Orchidaceae family are the restoration of a satyr. However‚ this does not dampen the mystical fascination of humans with this family of flowering plants. Undeniably‚ the beauty of many members of Orchidaceae has mesmerized many and led to a huge floricultural industry in the trade of orchids and its hybrids. Vanilla‚ one of the most used flavourings‚ is derived from the seed capsules of orchids. Orchidaceae

EYAL RONEN offers some guidelines on how to manage these parameters to prevent major crop problems‚ and explains the importance of measuring fertiliser solution at both the dripper and drainage points. General terminology Soilless culture‚ commonly referred to as ‘hydroponics’‚ is a cultivation technique by which plants are grown detached from the soil. Plants are cultivated in containers filled with several possible

INTRODUCING WITH BIOCHEMICAL CYCLES Biochemical cycles Nutrients are important for organisms to function. Each nutrient has a role in global biogeochemical cycles. A nutrient is a chemical that organisms need to live and grow and are substances an organism’s uses for metabolism which must be taken in from its environment that enrich the organism. Two types of nutrients are macronutrients and micronutrients. Macronutrients are needed in large quantities while micronutrients are needed in smaller

no need for buttresses because the soil is rich with nutrients. Rich soils allows for trees and plants to grow deep roots that anchor and provide them with stability. In addition deep root systems take up nutrients that are found throughout soil. Buttresses do not penetrate into the deep layers of the soil this could affect stability in places like the desert. Also shallow roots would prevent the uptake of much needed water and other nutrients that are hard to find in the desert biomes. The finding

1. Name and describe the life cycle of plants. The plant life cycle is consisted of two parts: the gametophyte phase where it produces gametes by mitosis and the sporophyte phase which produces spores by meiosis 2. Contrast the life cycle of plants to that of animals: Typical life cycle: alteration of generation (plants)‚ diploid (animals) Resulting structure from meiosis: spores-plants‚ gametes-animals Occurrence of mitosis: gamete production-plants‚ zygote to individual-animals 3.

essentials: 1) food 2) shelter 3) breeding site. In turn the organism interacts with the environment in several ways. For example a plant uses the environment for the three purposes named above but in turn it also removes carbon dioxide and water from the air‚ it gets eaten by an animal or a parasite and it depends on the soil for its support. Therefore the plant is interacting with the abiotic components and other biotic components. They are both interdependent on each other. At different times

profound things I have ever reflected on. Within these children we plant tiny seeds each day. We plants seeds that we trust will help our children grow into strong adults. In order for them to grow into strong adults they will need deep roots… roots that are sunk in the soil of self confidence and strong values and beliefs. Each day we must water them with hope‚ kindness‚ and love. We must feed the plants with the nutrients of knowledge‚ character‚ and dedication. We must care for them so
