Title: Virus Module: Biochemical Processes______ All viruses are pathogens. Some viruses are deadly‚ for example‚ HIV and Ebola virus. Unlike bacteria‚ fungi and protists‚ viruses do not fit into the framework of cellular organization that is the hallmark of organisms. Bacteria‚ fungi and protists are cells but not virus. Viruses have unique structural and functional properties and cannot reproduce unless they are inside the cell. In fact‚ they can neither generate energy nor make proteins

Sofia Dominguez 10-O 19/03/14 Effect of pH on germination of seeds: Design Practical Introduction: The term pH stands for Hydrogen Potential it is used to determine the acidity of a substance. The pH scale goes from 0 to 14. The values that are smaller than 7 indicate the range of acidity. Higher pH values are alkaline and a pH of 7 is neutral. Acidity is a function of the concentration of hydrogen ions (H+)‚ or protons. The strength of alkaline solutions is measured by the concentration of hydroxide

The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard-seed‚ which a man took‚ and sowed in His field: Which‚ indeed‚ is the least of all seeds; but when it is grown‚ it is the greatest among herbs‚ and becometh a tree‚ so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof" (vv. 31‚ 32). It should be evident to all‚ that our understanding of this parable hinges upon a correct interpretation of its three central figures: the mustard-seed‚ the great tree which sprang from it‚ and the "birds

they do it? Well there are multiple ways that this process occurs. All of which differentiate who or what helps the plant spread its seeds. Plants spread their seeds through wind‚ water‚ & animals. A perfect example of how wind disperses seeds of plants is the dandelion. Dandelions have parachute or umbrella like hairs‚ also known as pappus‚ above the one seed in the plant. Any sliver of wind can take these plants airborne for surprisingly long distances. There is also the birdcage plant which

Effect of seed germination Purpose: To see the effect of an acid introduced during seed germination‚ on the length of the plant roots. Also shows how salt can affect the seed germination. Acid can be introduced to seeds during germination if there is acid rain. Knowing the results of acid rain on seed germination will help us understand how to grow pants better‚ and how to have more successful germination. Salt can be introduced into a seed during germination because salt is put on roads and the

Germination in plants is the process in which dormant seed begins to grow and sprout under certain growing conditions. The English pea‚ also known as the garden pea‚ is a member of the legume family and is known to grow roughly three to four inches long. Research shows that it only takes approximately 1 week for the seed to start to germinate. There are many things that can affect‚ the growth of the pea seed such as; temperature‚ moisture‚ planting depth and sunlight. The pea grows best in temperatures

During the Toxicity of Morton Salt on Radish Seeds experiment‚ we measured the levels of iodized Morton Salt to the growth rate of radish seeds. Each six packets had ten radish seeds with different level of iodized salt solution. The packet with no iodized salt solution grew the longest in a period of days‚ compared to the other packets that had iodized salt. Solutions 100% and 10% had no growth progress within the past five days. As for solutions 1%‚ .1%‚ and .01% grew‚ yet not as much nor fast
