Photosynthesis is a chemical process that converts the sunlight into a chemical energy that plants store for later. Without photosynthesis‚ the world as we know it would not exist. All the plants would die and so would a major food and oxygen source. During Photosynthesis water is sucked up through the roots up the stem and to the leaves. The leaves take in carbon dioxide and begin to absorb sunlight. these things combine to make glucose and oxygen. The plant then uses the glucose and oxygen is

damaging the heart or brain. The most popular form of death is decapitation. Silver bullets will cause some pain and discomfort but will not kill this being. Crosses‚ holy water‚ and bible scripture will not ward of werewolves‚ neither will garlic or sunlight. They do not like ponds or lakes but can enter them is they wish. Since there are no known deterrents‚ our only defense is to kill them. Legend tells us that we can sense werewolves in their human form. They tend to be very hairy naturally and some

A seed is an embryonic plant that is enclosed in a seed coat or some kind of protection (Seed‚ 2009). A seed is the basis for any plant life; it is the essential beginning for any sort of growth. A seed is created from a previous plant or two plants pollinating with each other to create a seedling (Seed‚ 2009). Typically there are three main parts of a seed: an embryo‚ nutrients for the embryo‚ and a seed coat (Seed‚ 2009). The embryo is the true essential of the seed. It contains the one cotyledon

protects it from damage. Branches grow from the trunk. They spread out so that the leaves can get more sunlight. The leaves of a tree are green most of the time‚ but they can come in many colours‚ shapes and sizes. The leaves take in sunlight and use water and food from the roots to make the tree grow‚ and to reproduce. Trees and shrubs take in water and carbon dioxide and give out oxygen with sunlight to form sugars. This is the opposite of what animals do in respiration. Plants also do some respiration

Investigation of the rate of photosynthesis of pondweed. Research question: How does the concentration of sodium bicarbonate relate to the amount of oxygen produced by Elodea (Canadian pond weed) in the process of photosynthesis? Hypothesis: If there is an increase in concentration of sodium bicarbonate the amount of oxygen produced will increase because the sodium bicarbonate concentration will increase the carbon dioxide levels. Independent variable- Concentrations of sodium bicarbonate (8%

Eelgrass This document will discuss the aquatic plant eelgrass. It will describe its role in the ecosystem including its usefulness to humans. It will also describe how human impact is causing it to suffer‚ and will conclude with various ways of solving these problems. Eelgrass (zostera) is a very important plant in the Pacific ocean. It helps sustain many life forms and protects growing organisms through the change of tides (Tyler-Walters‚ H. 2007) These thin blades of grass are vital to have

Solar Energy People have been using solar energy by different ways for centuries. As early as the 7th century B.C.‚ people were using glasses to concentrate the sunlight into the beams so hot. This beams were causing wood to catch fire. [pic] Figure 1. Concentrating the Sunlight Note. Renewable Energy Fair.(n.d.). history1.
