Natural Resources Resources on the Earth Biosphere: The whole combination of animals‚ plants and non-living beings which by their interaction make the planet earth a live and vibrant place is called biosphere. Biotic Components: Living things constitute the biotic component of the biosphere. Abiotic Components: The air‚ the water and the soil form the non-living or a biotic component of the biosphere. The air is called the hygrosphere‚ the water is hydrosphere and the soil is called lithosphere

"NATURAL PRESERVATIVES" Anthony C. Dweck Research Director‚ Peter Black Medicare Ltd.‚ White Horse Business Park‚ Aintree Avenue‚ Trowbridge‚ Wiltshire‚ UK. BA14 0XB SUMMARY This paper looks at the theoretical development of a natural preservative system using the author’s data base on medicinal plants as a source of references. The legal aspects of this concept are considered. The traditional methods of preservation‚ many taken from the food industry are summarised. The use of alcohol‚ glycerine

The salago plant can be found all over the country and is known by different names and species. The plant is called “baleo”‚ “tuka”‚ or “dapnit” in the Ilocos provinces; “salago” or “taho” in Albay; “titipuho” or “palipo” in Batanes Island; “salagip” in Batangas; “sagu” in Laguna; “salago” or “siapo” in the

Determining the Concentrations of Red Dye in Sodas Abstract The use of red dye #40 is common in various soft drinks today. The labels on these beverages do not specify how much dye we are consuming. We did this experiment to find out which soda uses the most dye. Using a spectrophotometer‚ we measured how much light is absorbed by various known concentrations of red dye. After collecting this data‚ a standard curve was made that correlated the concentration of red dye #40 to its absorbance rate. Our

Excellent; I couldn’ t have written a better paper myself. DIVERSITY OF PLANTS Plants evolved more than 430 million years ago from multicellular green algae. By 300 million years ago‚ trees had evolved and formed forests‚ within which the diversification of vertebrates‚ insects‚ and fungi occurred. Roughly 266‚000 species of plants are now living. The two major groups of plants are the bryophytes and the vascular plants; the latter group consists of nine divisions that have living members. Bryophytes

PLANT RESPONSES TROPISM is a biological phenomenon‚ indicating growth or turning movement of a biological organism‚ usually a plant‚ in response to an environmental stimulus. In tropisms‚ this response is dependent on the direction of the species. The word tropism comes from the Greek trope ("to turn" or "to change"). Tropisms are usually named for the stimulus involved and may be either positive (towards the stimulus) or negative (away from the stimulus). Phototropism is the growth response

Parts of plants Each part of a plant has a very important function. All plants produce flowers for the same reason: to make seeds so another plant can grow. Leaves: These are the parts of the plant where food is made by photosynthesis. Leaves take in carbon dioxide from the air‚ water from the soil‚ and energy from the sunlight. During photosynthesis‚ the leaves use light energy to change carbon dioxide and water into food. (sugar) Flowers: These are the reproductive parts of
