    In the 1850s, two scientists by the name of Charles Darwin and Alfred Russell Wallace composed the theory of evolution by natural selection. (1) Darwin characterized several claims needed for natural selection to happen, including heritable variation within the population, and the presence of more individuals than the environment can support. They also discovered that certain environments favored certain traits. These circumstances resulted in the preferred traits being the most adaptable and able to reproduce, therefore passing the traits down to the next generation. To get a closer look at natural selection, we set up simulations to look at the reproductive success of an individual relatives to others, or biological fitness. The hypothesis we concluded for the simulations is that the predators on the light towel bench, which represents one of our three environments, would be more fit than the predator in the other two environments.…

    The cell is the structural and functional unit of all known living organisms. It is the simplest unit of an organism that is classified as living, and is sometimes called the building block of life. Some organisms, such as bacteria are unicellular (consist of a single cell). Other organisms, such as humans, are multicellular. (Humans have an estimated 100 trillion cells; a typical cell size is 10 micrometers, a typical cell mass is 1 nanogram.) The largest known cell is an ostrich egg.…

    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 from the soil. In addition, roots often form mycorrhizae with fungi, providing further advantage. Some roots are specially designed to store nutrients for later use of the plant. Leaves are wide flat regions that grow off of the stem. Their primary purpose is to add surface area for photosynthesis.…

    Water is one of the most essential factors for plant growth. The role which water plays in photosynthesis, respiration, transpiration and the transportation of nutrients and minerals throughout a plant is one which is of upmost importance (State of New South Wales, Department of Education and Communities and Charles Sturt University, 2013). Water plays many vital roles within a plant, one of these in particular is the function of the stomatal opening of leaves, and the source of pressure required for the directed growth of roots through the soil (Buzzle, 2012). Another essential factor for plant growth is light. The rate of growth and the length of time which a plant remains active are dependent on the amount and intensity…
