Introduction Man has propagated plant material almost as long as he has cultivated the land to produce food. For a long time‚ plant material was propagated mainly by using the seeds of existing plants. Better methods were discovered over time‚ methods that allowed the farmer to retain the desirable qualities of the plant material‚ while eliminating some of the less desirable qualities. Through these methods‚ the farmer was also able to eliminate the variations between plants of the same cultivar and produce

Ryan Tudino Mrs. Couchon Biology Honors/ 1A 10 April 2013 Abstract The seeds of summer squash (Cacurbita moschata)‚ beet (Beta vulgaris)‚ and pepper (Capsicum annuum) are all dicot plants‚ which mean that they have two seed leaves inside the seed coat. When they are placed in an environment and are watered with solutions of different acidic and alkaline levels‚ the root growth during germination is affected. The purpose of this experiment was to observe what type of substance‚ acidic or basic

SICK PLANTS Hypothesis: From my research‚ I think the plant in the solution containing all nutrients will have the fastest / most successful growth‚ and the control group / water solution will have the least growth as it doesn’t have any of its necessary nutrients. Variables: The independent variable will be the solution the plants are put in to begin with. All other conditions will be kept the same‚ such as temperature‚ sunlight‚ length of shoot‚ time space left. I will have a control group

Carnivorous Plants In a world where plants are at the bottom of the food-chain‚ some individual plant species have evolved ways to reverse the order we expect to find in nature. These insectivorous plants‚ as they are sometimes called‚ are the predators ‚ rather than the passive prey. Adaptations such as odiferous lures and trapping mechanisms have made it possible for these photosynthesizers to capture‚ chemically break-down and digest insect prey (and in some cases even small animals.) There

Pitcher plants are carnivorous plants whose prey-trapping mechanism features a deep cavity filled with liquid known as a pitfall trap.[1] It is widely assumed pitfall traps evolved by epiascidiation (infolding of the leaf with the axadial or upper surface becoming the inside of the pitcher)‚[2][3] with selection pressure favouring more deeply cupped leaves over evolutionary time. The pitcher trap evolved independently in three eudicot lineages and one monocot lineage‚ representing a case of convergent

Plants have two different ways to reproduce. The first one is vegetative reproduction. With this type all the plants that have the same parent have the same genetic make-up. This also lets plants pass adaptations on that they have abtained over the years. Plants with good genetic make-up usually spread quickly and take over an area. An example of this would be the dandelion. These plants can sprout from any part of the plant. An example of this is the potato‚ farmers will pick the potatoes and cut

Science-104 Question: Does different types of water affect how high a plant will grow? Golden pothos‚ also known as devil’s ivy‚ is an ideal houseplant; it’s attractive‚ hardy‚ tolerant of many lighting conditions but fond of low light‚ fast-growing‚ pest-repellent‚ safe around children and pets‚ and almost impossible to kill. The golden pothos vine is one of the most popular and dependable houseplants available today. These plants grow to giant proportions in their native habitats. Their mature
