STUDY GUIDE INTEGRATED SCIENCE 10 PLANT UNIT DO YOU/CAN YOU…. 1. Understand that both plants and animals (eukaryotes) undergo a similar process for cellular division/reproduction? Both plant and animal cells undergo mitosis and meiosis. In plants‚ there is an alternation of generations; the gametophyte generation‚ where haploid gametes (pollen and ovule; sperm and egg) are produced via mitosis. Then the sporophyte generation combines these two into spores via meiosis‚ resulting in a diploid

Experiment 5. Uptake of water by an uprooted plant - preparation Outline A small uprooted plant is sealed into a 5 or 10 cm3 plastic syringe barrel with ’Blu-tack’ or similar material and fitted to a potometer. Prior knowledge The questions assume that the student has an understanding of photosynthesis. Advance preparation and materials Plants. Dig up small plants (e.g. garden weeds) 10-20 cm tall and wash as much soil as possible off their roots. Select those whose root system can

Investigating the Effects of Plant growth within Abstract This experiment was conducted to determine whether or not those plants can grow in low fertilized‚ less sun light and the control group. Each group had there own task of making sure that the plants were always water‚ each plant had the same amount of light on them. When the plants started to evolve each individual plant was measured of the height. Most of the plants grew faster than others but over the period the plants that grew faster started

to show the effects that different colors of light have on plant growth. We separated our plants into different boxes and then covered the openings with colored cellophane. We conducted this experiment for approximately two weeks. Out of the colors blue‚ green‚ red‚ and yellow‚ the plant behind the blue cellophane grew the most. Research Problem What effects does different color light have on plant growth? Hypothesis The plants will grow taller under the red and blue light opposed to the

Mutualistic relationship of young desert plants and nurse plants. By: Anthony J. Johnston University of Arizona Abstract- The project being presented is on the association of desert plant life with nurse plants. It is said that desert plant life such as C. Gigantea‚ Ferocactus Wislizeni‚ and Ambrosia Deltoidea‚ associate themselves with other large nurse plants for protection‚ and other resources. Results showed that there was no random association of this hypothesis; therefore the null hypothesis

2011 Plants and Nitrogen Lab Report Introduction: Plants need ammonia‚ a combination of nitrogen and hydrogen‚ or nitrate‚ a form of inorganic nitrogen to grow. Most nitrogen is found in the atmosphere. However‚ plants and animals cannot directly absorb the nitrogen found in the atmosphere. Instead nitrogen gas is captured from the air by species of bacteria that lie in the water‚ soil‚ or grow on the roots of some plants. These bacteria convert the nitrogen into a form usable by plants. The

In contrast to mosses (Phylum Bryophyta)‚ the vascular plant sporophyte is dominant over AND is functionally independent of the gametophyte. • Conductive (vascular) tissues are universal AND are present in the sporophyte (not the gametophyte). • Although mosses live in moist environments (at least some of the time)‚ some vascular plants have acquired relative independence of free water. • Some vascular plants survive in harsh conditions (including hot and cool deserts). Ferns belong to the Phylum

after a week of measuring the biggest plant per bag. Each day the biggest radish plant in site A was measured and by day five the largest plant was 5 centimeters long‚ and had developed small green leaves. By the 5th day site B and D’s seeds showed no signs of growing and length remained at 0 centimeters. Site C and D’s superior seed both grew a total of 3 centimeters according to the 5th day measurements. Both the graph and table display the same results. The plants were measured with a ruler and then

Analysis of STEM fields Analysis of STEM fields 1. Introduction STEM is an acronym that referring to Science‚ Technology‚ Engineering‚ and Mathematics (Rotherham‚ 2011). What is STEM? The simple answer is that STEM means jobs. A complicated answer is that it is an educational key to a better U.S. economy; it addresses the growing disconnect between the skills that employers need in a rapidly increasing technological world and the lack of talent that the education
