Petiole is the support that bind the leaf blade to the stem. It is the passage between the stem and the leaf blade. Petiole ends where the blades begin. In a typical and carnivorous plant, the petiole is the channel where the products of photosynthesis are moved from individual leaves to the rest of a plant, making it an important part of photosynthesis. Lamina or blade, is the leaf tissue that encompasses mesophyll cells, which contain chloroplasts, making its primary function photosynthesis. The

The XRD results revealed the presence of magnetite nanoparticles and indicated their sizes from 30 – 40 nm (Figure 1a). SEM micrograph clearly illustrates that the magnetite nanoparticles sizes varied from 27.3– 34.62 nm (Figure 1b). Leaf fresh weight (FW) and dry weight (DW) FW and DW of peppermint leaves decreased in different concentrations of NaCl (Table 1). Several factors such as reduction of photosynthesis, degradation of cell membranes, reducing of plant available water and Na+ accumulation

My definition for home cannot be described by words or by a simple thought, but home is rather of a feeling. Home is the calmness and serenity that settles over me like a blanket on a cold snowy night, just a silent assurance telling me I belong there. It took me quite a bit of time to understand where exactly that place was, and I didn’t know that the answer was always right in front of me. This feeling would come and go, and I would never recognize it because I knew that only the house I lived

Japanese maple, the most common visual sign of Anthracnose are small spots on the leaves. These spots are usually either yellow or brown in color. The spots start out dotting your leaves. Over time, the spots expand until they cover up almost the entire leaf. Yellow or brown spots can also appear on the twigs on your trees. They generally appear on new growth. Treatment Prevention is the key with anthracnose. Make sure to not overwater plants. Do not get the leaves wet when watering; use a drip sprinkler

Punarnava (Boerhaavia diffusa L.) is a promising drug to rejuvenate new cells in body. It is well known in Ayurvedic medicine and locally called Tambadivasu. Superficially it is similar to other species of Boerhaavia and species of Trianthema and Sesuvium. Due to the minute morphological differences, above plants are erroneously used in medicine as Punarnava, and at times on purpose as an adulterant. Therefore, it is necessary to highlight the anatomical features of Punarnava for proper identification

Introduction Photosynthesis is a vital process for the survival of all life on Earth. The byproduct of photosynthesis, oxygen, profoundly contributes to the formation of the protective ozone layer (Johnson, 2016). In addition to that, photosynthesis controls 99% of the Earth’s ecosystem for every organism requires energy to fulfill their metabolism (“Overview of Photosynthesis”, 2013). Besides providing essential energy and oxygen for living organisms, photosynthesis also plays an important role

Emmaline DiPace Professor Theodore Korzukhin PHIL 10100 October 29, 2016 A Response to Nozick’s Conception of Knowledge In everyday life, people often claim knowledge of various facts and experiences. However, despite the regularity of such claims, it is difficult to articulate what knowledge specifically is and what conditions are necessary to constitute knowledge of a specific fact or event. One set of conditions for knowledge, known as justified true belief, states that a person knows
