Noah Onoff Dr. Ho Intro to Plant Life 10 December 2012 The Evolution of Carnivorous Plants In addition to being a subject in the occasional Hollywood horror movie‚ carnivorous plants are possibly the most fantastic members of the plant world. Over time‚ they have developed unique morphological characteristics in order to survive‚ paying homage to Darwin’s theory of natural selection. How carnivorous plants evolved is still somewhat unknown to botanists‚ this‚ in addition to their morphology

6. Anatomy of Flowering Plants Tissue It is a group of cells that are similar in structure and are organised together to perform a specific function. It is of two types: Meristematic tissues and Permanent tissues Meristematic tissue It consists of actively dividing cells that are found in those regions of the plant body that show growth. The examples include root tip‚ shoot tip‚ and base of the leaves. It is classified into three types: i. Apical meristem: They are present in

course work Aim- To see how the wavelength of visible light affects the rate of growth of aquatic plants Different wavelengths of light will effect to rate of photosynthesis. I will test this by exposing the pondweed to different wavelengths of light to see how it reacts. Method I will do this by passing white light through a filter. The filter will remove all unwanted wavelengths of light leaving the plant exposed to only the desired wavelength of light. I will use three different wavelengths

Totipotent cells formed during sexual and asexual reproduction include spores and zygotes. Zygotes are the products of the fusion of two gametes. In some organisms‚ cells can dedifferentiate and regain totipotency. For example‚ a plant cutting or callus can be used to grow an entire plant. Human development begins when a sperm fertilizes an egg and creates a single totipotent cell called zygote. In the first hours after fertilization‚ this cell divides into identical totipotent cells. Approximately four days

hydroponics more plants and crops can be created in a shorter amount of time. "Hydroponics is an excellent method of conducting research with controlled conditions of nutrient availability." The problem is that if the exact amount of minerals are not used the produce may have negative side effects or unwanted results. Through the research of hydroponics the less fortunate can produce their own crop while saving resources. A hydroponics garden may use only a fraction of the water a soil garden requires
