Legend of the Banana Plant In the early days when the world was new‚ spirits and ghosts lurked everywhere. They lived in gloomy caves‚ they hid in anthills and tree trunks they frolicked in nooks and corners under the houses. In the dark‚ sometimes their tiny voices could be heard dimly‚ or their ghostly presence be felt. But they were never seen. It was during these days of phantoms and unseen spirits that a young and beautiful girl lived. Her name was Raya‚ and she was a girl bold and daring

Genetically Modified Plants and Animals Why should we know about the genetic modification of plants and animals? In this world today we are seeing different labels on our foods but does anyone even really know what they mean? For example what is the difference between a regular tomato and an organic tomato? We should know what foods we are consuming and how they affect our bodies. I believe that more regulations should be put into place by the Food and Drug Administration so that we are better

It is also used as animal feed (oil pressings‚ seeds‚ green material and straw) and industrial raw material (oil cakes and fertilizer). These multiple uses of groundnut plant makes it an excellent cash crop for domestic markets as well as for foreign trade in several developing and developed countries. Cultivated groundnut originates from South America (Wiess 2000). It is one of the most popular and universal crops cultivated

phototropism affects pea plants. The purpose of this is to see how much the growth of the plant is affected by sunlight. Many years ago the scientist Charles Darwin discovered what today we called phototropism. I intend to create my own small experiment except this time I will be using artificial light instead of natural light (the sun). The definition of tropism is "a growth movement whose direction is determined by the direction from which the stimulus strikes the plant" and "photo" means relating

Role of Stomata & Control Stomata : a pore found in the epidermis of plants which are used to control as exchange Main function of stomata : Allow enough C02 to enter the leaf to optimize photosynthesis‚ while conserving as much water as possible Structure of stomata * Each stomata consists of a stoma (minute pore) which are surrounded by 2 guard cells. * Stomata closes and opens according to the turgidity of the guard cells * Stomata also allows for cooling of the leaf by loss

Water Movement In Plants Jason Ho Ms Butz Group Members: Daniel Turner‚ Long Nguyen 13/05/10 Abstract The objective of this investigation was to determine the effect of one specific environmental condition on the rate of transpiration in plants. This particular investigation looked at the number of leaves in a plant and how it would affect the rate of transpiration in plants. The aim of this investigation was to find out if the larger the number of leaves a plant had‚ the higher the

To prepare a temporary mount of aleaf peel to show stomata. B) Materials required:- Fresh leaves of plant‚ compound microscope‚ glass slides‚ cover slips‚ water‚ glycerine‚ safranine‚ blotting paper‚ needles‚ brush etc. C) Theory :- i) Stomata are minutepore present on the surface of the leaves. ii) Though they are found on both the upper and lower epidermis of the leaf‚ they are more in number on the lower epidermis. iii) Each stoma has two bean shaped

Plant Growth; Varying Light Exposures Intro and Hypothesis: The problem that is going to be answered is: will plant seeds grow at differently if they are covered by different materials while exposing them to the same amount of light? Also‚ which material will allow the plants to grow the most‚ tin foil‚ saran wrap‚ paper or no covering? Before the lab took place‚ it was hypothesized that the less light a plant receives‚ the less it will grow and the more light it receives‚ the more it will grow
