KEY CONCEPT-Plant life began in the water and became adapted to land. Plants are multicellular eukaryotes‚ most of which produce their own food through photosynthesis and have adapted to life on land. Plants share many characteristics with green algae. Both are photosynthetic eukaryotes with the same types of chlorophyll. Both also use starch as a storage product and have cell walls that contain cellulose. One ancient species of green algae is the common ancestor of all plants. If it were alive

Discussed in “How The First Plants Came to Be”‚ by David Biello‚ Earth is the planet of the plants‚ full of the most lush photosynthesizers. Biello strongly expresses his beliefs on how the first plant evolved from the merging of precise factors more specifically known as a host‚ Cyanobacteria and denoted parasitic gene. Basically‚ what Biello is trying to infer is how many years ago an alga ate a cyanobacteria and the first internal solar power plant was formed. In complete agreement with Biello

Many years ago‚ plants made the drastic move from water onto land. Although at first they had a very difficult time surviving on land‚ they gradually became acclimated to their new terrestrial habitat. This was only after they had formed adaptations to overcome a slew of problems that plagued them on land. For example‚ they had needed an aquatic environment for both reproduction and to support the plant body‚ and they had to adapt to living without their aquatic surroundings. In addition‚ they now

Chapter 3 Results and Discussion Plants grow better in a non-polluted area than a polluted area. The place where the plant that grew better was in a place which has enough sunlight and clean surroundings. The place where the plant that did no grow was in a place where people are working‚ the place has materials that is used in buildings like cement‚ and sand scattered all over the place. The polluted area had a great effect on the growth of the plant that grew in that place. The seed that was

Savannah Booker‚ Dubie Dubin Research Plan Problem: What is the effect of gasoline fumes on bean plant growth? Hypothesis: If the bean plants are exposed in the presence of gasoline fumes for a longer period of time‚ then the plants will die more quickly. Procedures: 1. Place ten bean plants in each of five Rubbermaid clear plastic containers. 2. Let the bean plants sit for one week without being manipulated. 3. Leave the first container alone without manipulation.

of Temperature on the Xylem of Tomato Plants Question: How does temperature affect the Xylem in Tomato Plants? Introduction: Throughout this experiment I will be testing the size of the Xylem in Roma tomato plants when exposed to different temperatures. I will be placing six Roma Tomatoes in six different area which will each be in different temperatures. After three weeks of constantly watering the tomato plants with blue dyed water I will cut the plant from the root and examine the Xylem under

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
