Rainforests February 18th‚ 2013 Mr. Zanardo AJ D’Orazio CGF 3M Grade 11 Rainforests are the oldest living ecosystems on earth. They only cover about 6% of the Earth surface but they contain more than half of the world’s animal and plant species. Rainforests are described as a tall but dense jungle. It is called a “rain” forest because of the high amount of rainfall it gets per year. There are two different types of rainforests Tropical and Temperate. A tropical rainforest is located

Introduction and Background: Plants are a diverse kingdom that gives vital sources of food‚ energy‚ and oxygen to sustain life on the planet. Plant classification is divided into four major groups including mosses and liverworts‚ ferns‚ conifers‚ and flowering plants. Plants we most commonly identify ourselves with is edible fruits and vegetables. There are a variety of types of vegetables from roots to legumes. An example of these types of food we eat is Radishes that are roots and Pinto beans which are

crops. A specific example of the plant that he used in his experiment is a clover‚ which he compared to a normal growth of clover. With the application of the electricity through Antenna system‚ the growth of clover has increased to 7 feet high. He also proved that it is a great way of reducing the chance of devastating the crop by pest and disease control. Another study by Ross (1987) who did the first attempt to influence the growth rate of biological system of a plant by passing current through

World Biomes Task 2: Main characteristics of grasslands. Grassland biomes are ecosystems predominantly consisting of a diverse range of grasses. Grasslands are generally flat terrains of rolling grass which are vast and continuous. The widespread of grasslands occurred during the Miocene and Pliocene Epochs in Western North America‚ where continental climates became favourable to grasslands as a result of the rise

Arbuscualar Mycorrhizae: Arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) is the predominant and ancestral type of mycorrhiza in land plants. It’s root cells have arbuscules (tree like structure‚ highly branched hyphae inside plant cells) and

What is Soil? Soil is the surface of the earth’s crust where plants have their roots and where many small animals make their home. It is also a result of the breakdown of rocks. Formation of Soil Soil is formed when rocks break down into very small particles by various processes such as weathering. There are two types of weathering: Physical Weathering and Chemical Weathering. Physical Weathering arises from the heating and cooling‚ the wetting and drying‚ and the freezing and
