The Thrips And Seasonal Abundance Of The Marigold Thrips

Observing the Wisconsin Fast-Plants was a monitoring experiment, we were just observers to the natural life cycle of these plants, and we did not influence their growth in any way that would not occur naturally. We took notes and observations about each stage of

At the end of paragraph two of “Marigolds” written by Eugenia Collier Lizabeth “remembers [the marigold] quite vividly now as [she] desperately pass away the time waiting for you, who will not come” (1) this is more than likely Lizabeth talking about how she is waiting for Ms. Lottie’s forgiveness for her destructive actions as a child. For example, when Lizabeth is an adult, she begins to remember her time as a child during the great depression and primarily her days spent terrorizing Ms. Lottie. When Lizabeth “was suddenly more women than child” (1) she began thinking of Ms. Lottie’s yard years ago and the time that she had destroyed her [Ms. Lottie’s.] marigolds. This shows that more than likely Lizabeth felt remorseful about her actions

In one’s everyday life, we are surrounded with environmental factors that could potentially shape the aspects of our lives. These types of factors range anywhere from negative to positive on a broad spectrum. For instance in Eugenia Collier’s short story “Marigolds”, The main character Lizabeth, is surrounded by an abundance of environmental factors, as she struggles with own internal conflict of coming to terms that her reign of innocence is slowly fading away. As the story continues, Lizabeth’s environmental factors are exposed, and as a result of these factors, she commits certain actions, in which she faces consequences for. The particular theme that is emitted from this short narrative, is “symbolic experiences that one may experience in life, have a probability of changing aspects in our lives”. This is tied in with main emphasize of exploring in the text how this particular theme is exposed by the characters, setting, and the plot of the story.

In Eugenia Collier’s short story, Marigolds, Lizabeth learns the hard truth of growing up from losing her temper which blurred her morals. At a turning point in a girl’s life, she will painfully transition from childhood to womanhood. Collier masterfully conveys this theme by her use of literary device foreshadowing, metaphors, and symbolism several times in the narrative.

The WC was only found in the B6 to the C10 indexes, which showed the middle stage. Also, the cactus found only in indexes C7 to D10 represented the late stage, or the “climax community”. We also found the CJ appearing in the early middle, showing the zone that it occurs in. The tall green leaf plant was found only during the early B stage, therefore, it must only survive in dry, sandy soil. In addition, we found some horse tails only in the A index, this represents a primary succession, whereas in index D, it may have been more of a secondary succession due to the soil being wetter and

Species: P. tigris, the organism who lives in a forest and is covered wiht blackstrip fur.

Habitat: Their habitats are on crops, arable and waste land, gardens. Commonly on footpaths and in

The red necked cane borer, Agrilus ruficollis (F.), is a buprestid beetle that infests wild and cultivated blackberries and raspberries in the eastern states from Canada to the Gulf of Mexico. Adults are about 6-7 mm (1/4 inch) long, with an iridescent coppery pronotum. A related species, Agrilus rubicola, may occur concurrently. This species is uniform in color, ranging from copper-colored to iridescent green. On galled plants, there is less live vegetative growth and more dead wood. There is often reduced berry size and number, as well as vegetative growth with increasing number of galls per plant. Affected canes may not produce fruit. Canes weakened by galls are more subject to winter injury.

The nine specimens were placed into a watch-glass container and checked to ensure that they were of relatively equal sizes to one another. The pipette was then utilized to collect one Daphnia magna and placed onto a depression slide to create a wet mount. It is noted that a coverslip was not to be placed on the top of the slide.

I enjoyed my many years of participation in the Monarch Larvae Monitoring Project. Milkweed is the larvae's host plant. Unfortunately common milkweed (asclepias syriaca) has not done well

There are a myriad beautiful types of flowers in our lives today that are great for gardeners, but in the United States, one of the easiest to recognize ends up being marigolds. There are more than 50 different species of this type of flower that are all taxonomies by botany into what is known as the Tagetes genus.

There are twelve species within the same genus and have subtle variations in physical appearances, all living in freshwater, but due

Purple Loosestrife (Lythrum salicaria), is a plant native to Europe, Eastern Australia, Asia and Northern Africa. Through history, this plant has been used as a medical herb for the treatment of dysentery, bleeding, wounds, ulcers and sores. The introduction of the Purple Loosestrife, through shipping, has caused disruption of waterflow and the crowding out of native species. Each individual Loosestrife plant can produce up to 2.7 millions seeds , this has helped it overtake native species, such as the cattail. Very costly and difficult to remove, Purple Loosestrife numbers show no sign of decreasing. The Water Chestnut (Trapa natans L.), is an aquatic plant species native to Europe. Introduced much like the Purple Loosestrife, the Water Chestnut is a plant that thrives in shallow depths of rivers and lakes, but can spread to deeper waters. Due to the coverage and over population of the Water Chestnuts, navigation, livable habitat and recreational activities are all affected by the plant. The beds of Water Chestnut also provide a perfect breeding ground for

organisms are being researched on, such as the Flavr Savr Tomato on 1997, as well as corn crops

Surveys are completed in 3 cycles with each cycle lasting 4 months (Jan- Apr; May-Aug; Sept-Dec) (White, Steven, McGIll, & Russel, 2014). Health units receive the data two months after the completion of each cycle (RRFSS, 2018b). Each survey is 20mins long and completely voluntary. The respondents are selected randomly through “random digit dialing” (White et.al, 2014).
