Introduction For the past 30 years Scientist have searched desperately for the answer to salt toleration within plants. The damaging effects of salt accumulation in agricultural soils have influenced both ancient and modern day civilizations alike. Worldwide‚ an estimated 24.7 million acres of once agriculturally productive land are being lost annually due to irrigation-induced salinity‚ according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Thus‚ crop production is limited by salinity on 40% of

Copper is an element that occurs in minor amounts in the earth’s crust. Estimates of average crustal prevalence are on the order of 0.0058 percent by weight. Deposits considered to be economically recoverable at current market prices may contain as little as 0.5 percent of copper or less‚ depending on the mining method‚ total reserves‚ and the geologic setting of the deposit. Here is the flow sheet on how to process copper from Zenith. Copper Process Flow Sheet: Copper ore is first quarried from

In 1992‚ Giacomo Rizzolati discovered mirror neurons in macaque monkeys. Mirror neurons are cells that fire when you are focused in planning a motor movement and are also fired through an observation of a similar movement in another person. The macaque monkey’s mirror neurons fired when they held a banana and also when they saw someone else hold a banana. Humans are similar to monkeys in the same aspect. The mirror neurons helps the brain by recording the difference between actions and seeing. It

Role of mycorrhizas in the mineral nutrition of host plants Mycorrhizas are very important in the uptake of nutrients such as P‚ N‚ K‚ Cu‚ Zn and Ca by plants especially in soils low in these nutrients. Since P is the most limiting nutrient in tropical soils‚ mycorrhizas are vital for improving P nutrition particularly for cultivated plants. External hyphae can absorb and translocate P to the host from soil outside the root depletion zone. The thin mycorrhizal hyphae (2-4 μm in diameter) are able

different concentrations of salt water effect plants. The test that will be performed will prove which concentration will have the worst effect. The hypothesis is that by measuring the plants growth each day‚ the largest concentration of salt will harm the plants the most. First‚ the plants were purchased and the water was prepared with the salt concentrations. Second‚ the plants were watered each day with the different concentrations of salt. Third‚ the plants’ growth were observed and recorded each

The three basic organs of a vascular plant are the stems‚ leaves‚ and roots. The stems consist of nodes‚ where leaves attach‚ and internodes between the nodes. The stem is responsible for elongation of the plant and acts as a central axis for other organs to attach to. The roots help to anchor the plant as well as absorb water and nutrients
