tree is a tall plant with a trunk and branches made of wood. It can live for many years. The four main parts of a tree are the roots‚ the trunk‚ the branches‚ and the leaves. The roots of a tree are usually under the ground. One case for which this is not true are the roots of the mangrove tree.[1] A single tree has many roots. The roots carry food and water from the ground through the trunk and branches to the leaves of the tree. They can also breathe in air.[1] Sometimes‚ roots are specialized

Biotic factors are all the living factors in an environment (Plants). While abiotic factors are all non-living factors in an environment. The three types of interactions that occur are biotic-biotic (Betta Fish eating Hornwort‚ or Fly eating leaves)‚ biotic-Abiotic (Plants-Sunlight‚ or Betta Fish- Fish Food)‚ and abiotic-abiotic (water eroding rocks‚ or sunlight heating the soil). The biotic factors I control are what seeds i plant‚ and the type of fish i buy. The abiotic factors i control are

their hydrogen bonds break and shape change. This is also relevant in plants. When water is evaporated of leaves of the plant it cools it in the same way. This is also important as plants need to be a certain temperatures so that. Plants need to be at the correct temperature so reactions take place at the fastest rate and so they grow as much as possible. This is especially important in crops and agriculture Also for plants to grow at the fastest possible rate they have to have the correct amount

prevent problems and damages in nature. Euphorbia milii also known as Crown-of-Thorns is a poisonous plant and its sap can irritate your skin‚ but in brazil it is used in removing warts. It is also a spiny plant and belongs to the family of Spurge. Euphorbia milii is a succulent with thick fleshy stems adapted for water storage. The sap of this plant is an excellent wound sealant when they have injury . Tuba-tuba is a poisonous‚ semi-evergreen shrub. It is resistant

Rochange1* A carotenoid-derived hormonal signal that inhibits shoot branching in plants has long escaped identification. Strigolactones are compounds thought to be derived from carotenoids and are known to trigger the germination of parasitic plant seeds and stimulate symbiotic fungi. Here we present evidence that carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase 8 shoot branching mutants of pea are strigolactone deficient and

species is a species of plant or animal that was introduced to a new habitat by humans‚ intentionally or otherwise. Invasive species are also defined as being harmful to the environment and ecosystem to which they are introduced‚ frequently changing the nature of the system (What is an Invasive Species? 2015). Arundo donax is one such species. It is a plant similar to reed or bamboo in that it is tall and straight in appearance. While Arundo donax is a dangerous species of plant that can severely harm

Discussion Biology Lab 017 04/02/12 Marigold Lab The Purpose of this was to analyze how the Marigold plants grew under certain conditions. The Objective was to determine the amount of growth these plants went through by measuring the changes in the selected variables. The Variables that we selected were stem length‚ root length‚ the amount of leaves that grew on a plant and the overall size of the plant measured in height. For this experiment‚ we had three test groups‚ the first two groups had five
