    1. Explain the process of ecological succession, including the role of plants in maintaining biodiversity and the survival of organisms after a disturbance to an ecosystem. Ecological succession allows a biological community to evolve over time (2). This succession is divided into two distinct sections: primary and secondary succession. Primary succession allows life to form in regions with soil incapable of sustaining larger plants and by extension, larger animals (2). Secondary succession occurs

    Pfls2 activity in the root tip extending to the cortical cells, salylic acid (SA) showed strong blue staining in the vasculature, next H2O2 or the ethylene precursor ACC provoked an almost identical promoter activity in the root cap, root meristem and root epidermal cells, also finding pFLS2 is auxin responsive. Revealing that flg22, SA, H2O2 and ethylene all induce the expression of activity of the pFLS2 but the responses are specific to different tissue layers in the root. Overall proving evidence

    A macromolecule is a very large molecule, usually formed by polymerization of smaller molecules or units called monomers. They are typically composed of thousands of atoms. Polymerization is the process in which hundreds or thousands monomers, the smaller molecules, are connected together to form the larger polymers. The term "macromolecule" first appeared in the 1920s by the German chemist Hermann Staudinger. He was the first to suggest that many small molecules covalently linked together can

    Peil et al. (2003) studied this phenomenon in detail. For dominant markers, five different polymorphic configurations are possible in a single cross when female and male progeny are considered separately and they found four of them. For 43 AFLP markers, complete co-segregation between the AFLP fragment and male sex was observed. Twenty-three sex-linked AFLP markers showed other segregation patterns. There was also recombination between sex-linked AFLP markers. Peil et al. (2003) found a recombination

    Distillation is a technique used in chemistry to isolate/purify a mixture of liquid chemicals based on boiling points and vapor pressure.1 In this experiment, various isomers of methylcyclohexene were synthesized from 2-methylcyclohexanol via an alcohol dehydration E1 elimination reaction. This reaction is in an equilibrium state, and therefore, distilling and then condensing the product as the reaction progresses allows for a higher yield due to Le Chatelier 's principle. Simple distillation was

    1. Abstract:- Corrosion is a destructive attack of a material by reaction with its environment and a natural potential hazard associated with oil and gas production and transportation facilities. This material degradation results in the loss of mechanical properties like strength, ductility, impact strength and so on. In order to ensure smooth and uninterrupted flow of oil and gas to the end users it is imperative for the field operators, pipeline engineers and designers to be corrosion conscious
