Intraspecific Competition Bassica rapa Intraspecific competition occurs between members of the same species and is a very important factor that is limiting the population size of many species (McGinley‚ 2008). Brassica rapa plants are model organisms to study because of their rapid-cycling‚ small genome sizes and short life cycles. Brassica rapa also known as “fast plants”‚ because they can grow into adults in the span of seven weeks‚ is an ideal species to study competition (Miller‚ 1995). These

Physical Injury and Obesity Hand-held video game consoles are very popular in the developed world. While they can be entertaining‚ excessive play can be detrimental. One problem is video game addiction‚ which can be disruptive to a person’s psychological health. Other reported issues include seizures‚ neck pain‚ wrist pain and repetitive strain injury. Prolonged use also contributes to a sedentary lifestyle‚ resulting in obesity. Several studies and researches have suggested about the various harmful

traspecific competition in growth of Brassica rapa in low and high-density treatments Rimel‚ Stuart F (thursday 11am) Abstract Intraspecific competition was examined on Brassica rapa‚ a species of fast growing mustard. Intraspecific competition is competition between individuals of same species living in the same population and competing for a limiting resource (Aspbury and Gabor‚ 2007). Brassica rapa was grown in a Laboratory in 10.16 cm pots and grouped in treatments of low density –

Survival and Leaf Growth of Radishes and Collards in Intraspecific and Interspecific Settings Abstract The purpose of the experiment was to observe how density and competition among individuals of the same species and of different species affects the growth of leaves and survival of collards and radishes. The experiment was carried out in the Greenhouse at the University of South Carolina‚ and utilized set up with six groups with four pots per group. The pots consisted of low density radishes‚ low

Lab report is one way we used during of after an experiment in a laboratory to subtly record and discuss the experiment. During a lab‚ we sometimes can observe only the physical part of the experiment‚ or may be some visible chemical changes. These changes indicate that the experiment we do is successful or not. However‚ in order to understand and achieve more from just simply doing the experiment‚ we write lab report to more profoundly understand the internal meanings of the experiment we do‚ and

Investigating the effect of intraspecific competition on the growth of mung beans Introduction When plants reproduce‚ size is highly correlated with reproductive. The struggle for reproductive survival among plants is the struggle to grow in the face of competition from neighbours. So the question this experiment asks is how competition affects the growth of plants. A plant growing in a nutrient-abundant environment free from competition will exhibit maximum growth. One way to address this question
