MAKES VINCA PLANTS GROW THE BEST? My Science Experiment! The experiment is to take 4 Vinca plants‚ which are about the same size‚ health‚ and flowering stages and find out which one will grow the best. Each of the plants will have 75 ml of a liquid daily for 10 days. My Grandma bought them from Lowes on September 20‚ 2011 for me. Breakdown of the plants are as follows: Control plant will get tap water. Plant A will get Milk from the refrigerator. Plant B will get

are more to aquatic plants than just floating on the surface of water. Aquatic plants are plants that can adapt and live in a freshwater environment. They are sometimes called hydrophytes. These include plants that live in fresh wetlands‚ swamps‚ ponds‚ lakes‚ and marshes. This type of plant actually serves two important functions. First‚ they help oxygenate water (2006) and they provide nutrients and food for some fishes (Tappin‚ 2003). There are many types of aquatic plants including rooted‚ emergent

PLANT RESPONSES TROPISM is a biological phenomenon‚ indicating growth or turning movement of a biological organism‚ usually a plant‚ in response to an environmental stimulus. In tropisms‚ this response is dependent on the direction of the species. The word tropism comes from the Greek trope ("to turn" or "to change"). Tropisms are usually named for the stimulus involved and may be either positive (towards the stimulus) or negative (away from the stimulus). Phototropism is the growth response

surface of water and mud. Algae were evolving at the water’s edge‚ and one group – probably the charophytes – gave rise to plants. Cooksonia‚ a simple branching plant a few centimeters tall‚ evolved by 430 million years ago. It took another 160 million years for the taller Psilophyton to evolve. Then the evolutionary pace picked up. It took only 60 million years for plants radiate from the swampy lowlands to high mountains and nearly all places in between. They did so through modifications in

A world without plants Plants; probably the most ignored organism on this planet. People walk past plant and cut them down but nobody ever thinks about what they do for us‚ what the world would be if there was never any plants or photosynthetic organisms. If the world never had these organisms the world would be a desolate place. There would be no oxygen‚ atmosphere‚ or food. We inhale air unconsciously every day. By taking in air‚ we absorb oxygen and discharge carbon dioxide in the process of

Internal Structure Of A Plant PLANT CELL STRUCTURE Plant cells are classed as eukaryotes organisms‚ because they have a membrane enclosed nuclei and organelles. Here is a diagram of a plant cell;  Cytoplasm Most chemical reactions take place here. It helps the cell maintain it’s shape. Nucleus The nucleus has two main roles. Firstly it contains all the cells genetic information. Secondly it coordinates the cell’s activities‚ which include growth‚ intermediary metabolism‚ protein synthesis

Plant Tour Experience in Wyeth Philippines At Canlubang‚ Laguna Visiting a prestigious plant was a great experience. On that day the feeling of excitement was surrounding me. It was my first time having an educational tour. During the road trip everyone was enjoying talking and cracking some hilarious jokes and enjoying as if we were just a kid that was having a field trip. When we had arrived at Canlubang I was so excited to enter the plant because I was so curious about what was the inside

Plant cells are eukaryotic cells that differ in several key aspects from the cells of other eukaryotic organisms. Their distinctive features include: A large central vacuole‚ a water-filled volume enclosed by a membrane known as the tonoplast maintains the cell’s turgor‚ controls movement of molecules between the cytosol and sap‚ stores useful material and digests waste proteins and organelles. A cell wall composed of cellulose and hemicellulose‚ pectin and in many cases lignin‚ is secreted by

Both members of the pair are similar in size‚ shape‚ and appearance‚ except for sex chromosomes. Autosomes- The general term for chromosomes other than the sex chromosomes. Sex chromosome- The X and Y chromosomes that determine genetic sex. Barr body- The inactivated X chromosome that appears as a small‚ dense mass of chromatin attached

Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs) working in the medical setting are typically members of rehabilitation teams‚ who work with individuals who have suffered from an illness‚ disease‚ or injury that may result in neurological deficits affecting speech‚ language‚ and/or cognition. Specifically‚ when working with the adult population‚ SLPs frequently assess and treat individuals diagnosed with a motor speech disorder called dysarthria. There are many types of dysarthria that can be characterized
