Allelopathic activity of the aqueous methanol extracts of Mangifera indica L. leaves The aqueous methanol extracts obtained from mango leaves inhibited seed germination of radish and sand fescue‚ and inhibited seedling growth of root and shoot growth of radish‚ rapeseed‚ sand fescue and crabgrass (Figure 1 and 2). The extract obtained from 0.03 g dry weight of mango leaves inhibited 20 and 50 % germination of radish and sand fescue respectively‚ on day 4 (Figure 2). The extract obtained from 0.03

Without light‚ plants would not be able to carry out photosynthesis (McKenney‚ Peffley‚ and Wilmington 49). Photosynthesis is responsible for providing the plant with nutrients it needs to thrive and grow. Without the proper nutrients‚ it is difficult for a plant to continue to live. Therefore‚ photosynthesis is necessary for a plant’s vitality. The goal of this experiment is to observe and identify the impact that light has on a plant. Hypothesis: If light affects photosynthesis in plants‚ then the

find out what will happen to the plant if it was covered with smoke. It was performed by having two plants: one is inside a container; the other is outside the container. The one inside is covered with smoke using a cigarette in a can. The other one is free from smoke. After two weeks the plant didn’t die but look pale and yellowish on its leaves. The cause of the change in color is the disease called chlorosis that affected the production of starch in the plant. The leaf should be green with chlorophyll

After our experiment we were able to conclude that our hypothesis was refuted because our average leaf density in our daughter population increased. Introduction: We are artificially selecting for a trait in the plant Brassica rapa. ( Wisconsin Fast Plant). Brassica rapa has been artificially selected for many generations under countless

years ago‚ life on land was unsuitable for plants to live on with the little to no supply of oxygen and the harmful ultraviolet rays of the scorching sun. This lead to life beginning in the ocean where scientists have traced back to an ancestral bryophyte (also known as freshwater green algae) that has‚ over time‚ developed a key process of making food by using the energy from sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into by glucose and oxygen. The plant life history also involves the "alternations

Hypothesis The lack of chlorophyll in kidney beans is due to the environment. Presence of chlorophyll in plants Chlorophyll is a green pigment found in the cyanobacteria and the chloroplasts of algae and plants. Chlorophyll is an extremely important biomolecule critical in photosynthesis‚ allowing plants to absorb energy from lights. Chlorophyll is present in specialised cells within plants and many algae‚ when sunlight is present‚ chlorophyll combines it with water and carbon dioxide and creates
