Germination is the process by which a plant grows from a seed. The most common example of germination is the sprouting of a seedling from a seed of an angiosperm or gymnosperm. However the growth of a sporeling from a spore‚ for example the growth of hyphae from fungal spores‚ is also germination. In a more general sense‚ germination can be simply anything expanding into greater being from a small existence or germ‚ a method that is commonly used by many seed germination projects.

Radish is an annual herb widely grown for its edible fleshy‚ hot tasting roots maybe red‚ white or purple. Every part of the root or the plant can be used in different ways. The leaves and the roots are eaten raw in salads. Likewise‚ it can be cooked or mix with meat to satisfactory attain its delicious taste. Aside from food‚ it is dried for juice extraction. Radishes were probably native to China. It was developed from a live plant that grows in the cooler region of Asia. It spread to the Mediterranean

* Pandanus amaryllifolius is a tropical plant in the Pandanus (screwpine) genus‚ which is commonly known as pandan leaves and is used widely in Southeast Asiancooking as a flavoring. The plant is rare in the wild‚ but is widely cultivated. It is an upright‚ green plant with fan-shaped sprays of long‚ narrow‚ bladelike leaves and woody aerial roots. The plant is sterile‚ flowers only very rarely‚ and is propagated by cuttings. * Pandan leaves and roots are found to have medicinal benefits. It helps
Premium Root Analysis of variance Plant morphology
Corn rootworms are currently a pest for over one hundred different host plants through out the country. Economically speaking‚ they do the most damage to corn crops in the Corn Belt. There are three main different types of Corn rootworm: Northern corn rootworm‚ Western corn rootworm‚ and Southern corn rootworm. They all have their own unique way to reproduce and affect the farmer’s crops. Northern corn rootworm has a unique life cycle. The female insects lay eggs in late August. Those eggs

developmental characteristics of individuals of a given species grown within high-density populations (Ungar‚ 1992). Developmental changes in; proportion of surviving individuals‚ forage biomass‚ plant height‚ number of seeds per individual‚ mean biomass of seeds per individual‚ number of seeds per pod‚ and mean root biomass will be observed among B. rapa low density populations against B. rapa high density populations to determine the density-dependent characteristics between both treatments.

Water is imperative for the growth and preservation of life‚ especially plants. Playing a role from the vary beginning‚ water is necessary in the germination of dry seeds and growth of plants throughout their life cycle. However‚ there are drawbacks to an overabundance of water or a lack of water. Therefore‚ how much water is required to maximize the potential of a given crop? In our experiment‚ we examine the effects of water on corn. Corn is a vital crop to North America‚ and there is a wide draw

in response to a directional stimulus eg light or gravity. Plants are not able to relocate if they happen to start growing where conditions are nor perfect but they can alter their growth towards more favorable conditions. Plants respond to light (phototropism) where the stems grow towards the light and the roots grow away from the light. They also respond to gravity (geotropism) where the stems grow away from the ground and the roots grow towards the ground. Tropisms are controlled by auxins

Plants are distributed worldwide in varying numbers. While they inhabit a multitude of biomes and ecoregions‚ few can be found beyond the tundras at the northernmost regions of continental shelves. At the southern extremes‚ plants have adapted tenaciously to the prevailing conditions. (See Antarctic flora.) Plants are often the dominant physical and structural component of habitats where they occur. Many of the Earth’s biomes are named for the type of vegetation because plants are the dominant

Feeding Relationships Found in Nature. Plants make their own food. Therefore‚ plants are called producers. You know that animals depend on plants or on other animals for their Food. Therefore‚ animals are called consumers. A study of feeding relationships‚ or food chains‚ helps us to better understand our environment. And if we study the feeding relationships in an environment‚ we are better able to predict what will happen if the plants and animals are threatened in any way. For example

Both Plants and fungi affect the carbon cycle though they do it in different ways- both of them interfere with it while they are attempting to get food/energy to survive on. Each have adapted so they can live in an environment where they can source enough food to survive. They get these things from different sources so grow in very different conditions in order to survive. Plants live in places with lots of sunlight as well as a place where they can source water whereas fungi can live almost anywhere
