FRUITS‚ SEEDS AND THE FUTURE JEANETTE JOHNSON A fruit results from the maturation of one or more flowers. The ovule producing part of the flower forms all or part of the fruit. Inside the ovary/ovaries are one or more small eggs‚ where the embryo sac contains the egg cell. When the female embryo sac joins with two male sperm these ovules become seeds. (Biology Online‚ 2005) Each fruit is made of certain acids‚ vitamins‚ fructose

Fruits Professor Kelechi Mezu Introduction to Biology – SCI 115 March 2‚ 2010 We use our sense of taste to differ if fruit is sweet or sour. That taste depends on the components in the fruit. Fruits contain fructose‚ acids‚ vitamin‚ starch‚ proteins‚ and cellulose. All of these components contribute to the taste of fruit. Fruits with high fructose levels tend to be sweeter whereas fruits with high levels of acid tend to be sour. Oranges however‚ have equal quantities of fructose and acids

or stored. Once the fertilization occurs‚ the ovules will transfer into seeds and the plant will begin to produce fruit. The Gardenia is known as a deer resistant plant. It uses it’s strong scent ‚ woody branches‚ thick leaves ‚ and It’s waxy leaves. Gardenias life cycle.. The Germination of a gardenia takes about 21 to 60 days their seeds grow slowy and erratically when they germinate they need lots of sunlight.!

fruits This list of culinary fruits contains the names of some fruits that are considered edible in some cuisines. The word "fruit" is used in several different ways.[1] The definition of fruit for these lists is a culinary fruit‚ i.e. "Any sweet‚ edible part of a plant that resembles fruit‚ even if it does not develop from a floral ovary; also used in a technically imprecise sense for some sweet or sweetish vegetables‚ some of which may resemble a true fruit or are used in cookery as if they

BROOKLYN BLOOMS SEED BOMB WORKSHOP What: Seedbombs‚ or seedballs are a mixture of clay‚ compost and seeds that are designed to improve ecology in blighted often hard to reach areas. The components are simply mixed together into balls that can easily be dropped or thrown in an appropriate place. How: The clay prevents the compost and seeds from being washed away in rain and keeps them damp. The seeds will sprout plants that need the compost for nutrients required for successful early growth

A seed consists essentially of a seed coat‚ stored food and a young plant‚ the embryo. The seed coat may be made of inner tegmen and outer testa. On the seed coat a scar (hilum) is present which shows the place of attachment of a seed in the fruit is present. At one end of the hilum is the micropyle. Through micropyle the seed absorbs water during the process of germination. The embryo consists of epicotyl‚one or two seed leaves called cotyledons‚ and a hypocotyle. The portion of the embryo above

are some fruits sweet and some sour‚ whereas others have no specific taste? Naturally fruit contains cellulose‚ proteins‚ starch‚ proteins‚ vitamins‚ certain acids and fructose (or sugar). When fruit ripens‚ a series of chemical changes occur in the fruit that result in either a sweet fruit‚ sweet and sour fruit‚ sour fruit or fruit with no specific taste. During these changes‚ the acids content in fruit becomes less and the fructose content increases thereby resulting in a sweet fruit (Coen
