Lauren Sullivan Plants Imperfections Abstract The purpose of this experiment was to plant different crosses and observe the different phenotypic ratios the plants present. The procedure of this experiment was plant six different crosses and water them correctly so that we could observe the different phenotypes and compare them to Mendel’s proposed ratios. Mendel‚ who had studied peas‚ did a similar experiment and came up with specific ratios that a monohybrid and dihybrid cross should show. His

Effect of Ionizing Radiation on the Germination‚ Growth and Development of Corn (Zea mays L.) Alexis A. Parco BIO30 Group 1 Sec. A-6L September 27‚ 2012 ABSTRACT Corn seeds pre-exposed to 10‚ 30‚ and 50 kiloRads (kR) of radiation were grown in plots for almost 7 weeks. Four different setups – 10kR‚ 30kR‚ 50kR and the control‚ each with 10 corn seeds initially planted – were observed three times a week (during Mondays‚ Wednesdays and Fridays)‚ and the height of each growing corn was

Question: Does the concentration of salt in the water‚ affects the germination of the seed? Purpose: To see if the salinity of the water affects the germination of the seed‚ before its put into the soil. Back Ground Information: Seed germination is the sprouting or growth of a seed into the start of a plant. When environmental factors such as moisture‚ temperature‚ oxygen‚ and sometimes light are appropriate‚ a viable seed will begin to germinate. Salinity (salt-affected) in plants can

we compared the amount of germinated Raphanus sativus’ in normal and frigid temperatures. My group and I predicted that more seeds in the normal temperature atmosphere would germinate‚ rather than the seeds in the frigid condition. The experiment starts with two petri dishes‚ and we filled each dish with fifty radish seeds. We made our first observations about the seeds that we see. We labeled one petri dish “Control‚” and the other was labeled “Experimental.” The experimental petri dish was put

In this lab the peroxidase enzyme is tested in a dormant avocado seed as well as an avocado seed undergoing the process of germination. A gas pressure will be used to test the seeds and see if the peroxidase enzyme is present in either of the seeds. A catalyst is very similar to track spikes. Spikes increase a runner’s speed‚ as a catalyst speeds up the chemical reaction time in a plant. Neither the catalyst nor shoes are changed in these actions. Enzymes are macromolecules that act like catalysts

a species can produce chemicals that can prevent the growth or germination of another species. An example of this is Australian native plants such as Casuarinas and Eucalypts which produce allelochemicals that prevent competition of other plants. This is a form of a defence mechanism in order to survive. A negative effect of Allelopathy includes Patterson’s Curse. Patterson’s curse releases allelochemicals that inhibit the germination and growth of other plants. When plants are competing they compete

Zea mays L. Ten seeds for each level of gamma radiation (0 krad‚ 10 krad‚ 30 krad and 50 krad) were planted and tested for the number of germinating seeds and plant height‚ using a meter stick or ruler. Data were collected for 30 days period and graphs and figures of the data were analyzed. Therefore‚ it can be inferred that the level of gamma radiation introduced to the plant would have adverse effect on the growth of corn plant; in terms of plant height‚ number of germinating seeds and its over-all

has on seed germination and after performing this experiment is can be concluded that acid rain has a negative effect on seed germination. When seeds are soaked in an acidic solution the process of germination slows. Acidic solutions‚ while do slow growth of a seed‚ they do not kill the seed. A seed can be dormant for a majority of its lifespan‚ seeds watered with acid solutions stayed in a dormant condition. For example‚ trial three (3) part one (1) and two (2) both experienced germination. Whereas
