The effect of food source (mung bean Vigna radiata vs. black-eyed pea Vigna unguiculata) on relative inhibition of acetylcholinerase due to malaoxon in bean beetle Callosobruchus maculatus Background and Hypotheses: Recent studies‚ most notably Gbaye et al. (2011‚ 2012)‚ have investigated the sensitivity of bean beetles in the genus Callosobruchus to organophosphate insecticides (OPs). Economically this is important work given that these beetles are pests that threaten agricultural yields

ABSTRACT: By exposing Brassica rapa seedlings to UV-C light‚ the effect of the growth and development of Brassica rapa seedlings was tested. The experimental group of Brassica rapa seedlings was exposed to 254 nm UV-C light for thirty seconds after one week of growth. Throughout the duration of one month‚ the height‚ number of leaves and stem diameter were measured sporadically. After one month‚ the biomass of the seedlings was recorded. A starch analysis test was also performed. According to the

However other arguments will be presented‚ such as theories that support the fact that population growth has an impact in economic development. According to Weeks‚ J (1999:13) the rapid acceleration in growth after 1950 was due almost entirely to the declines in the

GROWN UNDER DIFFERENT LIGHT INTENSITIES ABSTRACT Throughout their growth plants exhibit varying ways to adapt and change depending on their circumstances‚ with changes in the amount of available light being a major factor in plant growth. The aim of the study was to determine whether there are significant differences in the growth patterns of Vigna radiata when grown under varying light intensities. Plants were grown in two different light intensities‚ normal light and no light‚ for a period of 10

What is the Effect of the Colour of Light on the Rate of Photosynthesis? By Amelia Rowan‚ 12SDa Aim To discover whether the colour of the light source has any effect on the rate of photosynthesis of a sample of algae. Hypothesis It was predicted that the colour of the light source would have a very slight effect on the rate of photosynthesis. It was further predicted that when the sample was placed under the green light‚ the rate of photosynthesis would be the lowest. This hypothesis was arrived

is the largest increasing factor in our world. This factor is the cause of many events in our world. Poverty hunger and war are just some of the immediate effects of increasing population. Among these extreme causes the less immediate events will be seen with air pollution‚ land degradation‚ which is the effect that’ll have the longest term effect on the world. But how can these events are avoided? Is there any hope of stopping this from occurring any further? The largest‚ most identified reason for
