This experiment used beets to determine peroxidase production in stressed plants. The purpose of this experiment was to test if the stressed plant would produce more peroxidase in a higher concentration than the control plant. The stressor for this experiment was watering with salt water. This stressor was chosen because it is a natural stressor to plants; especially along the coasts and where roads are salted in winter such as the Midwest. The control plant was watered with plain tap water while

She walked out the room, closing the door behind her. Sheila was slumped against a rock asleep while the princess ran out the cave to look for the guards. As she ran she tripped on a long tree root sticking out of the ground. When she looked up, she saw the evil witch standing in front, looking at her. The princess quickly ran the opposite direction not knowing what to do, she knew the witch wanted to kill her. She kept running until she climbed

Introduction The term ‘allelopathy’ was introduced in early 1937 by Molisch when he discovered that there existed both detrimental and beneficial biological interactions among all plants and microorganism (Rivzi 1). His discovery aided Rice in coming up with a more clear definition of allelopathy. According to Rice, allelopathy is any effect (beneficial or harmful) by one plant or microorganism on another via excretion of chemical compounds to the environment (Rivzi 1). Since then, many researches

phytohormone abscisic acid. In roots, PDX1 was highly expressed in a defined region behind the root tips that undergoes rapid cell division. The PDX1 protein was mainly associated with the plasma membrane and endomembranes, implying a potential involvement of vitamin B6 in membrane function. To reveal the in vivo role of PDX1, Arabidopsis insertional mutants were isolated. Strikingly, the pdx1 knockout mutants were impaired in root growth and early seedling development. The stunted roots resulted from both reduced

TOMATO PLANT 1) Seed: Tomato seeds are small, flat and disk shaped and about 1/8 inch wide. They contain two energy storage organs called cotyledons and an embryo encased in a hard outer shell called the seed coat. The seed is the dormant or resting stage of the plant life cycle. When young tomato plants are damaged, they tend to go into a dormant, survival stage in which plant growth is delayed for a while. Frost damage is something to look out for when planting tomatoes early on in the season

visit her family and contradicting her heritage. As Dee go off to college, she meets new people and finds her a boyfriend, Asalamalakim. Alice Walker adds attention onto Dee’s new name, Wangero, because Dee changes her name, not understanding the true root of her original name. “No, mama,’ she says. ‘Not Dee, Wangero Leewanika Kemanjo!’ ‘What happened to ‘Dee’?’ I wanted to know. ‘She’s dead…” (160). However, Dee truly believes that her heritage lies way back to Africa. The African clothes and name

grown up around food ever since he was little. When the book states “The fate of a seed can be predicted by the health of the soil where it takes the root” I believe that Will Allen is referring and connecting it back to himself. I believe he relates this to himself because a plant's roots are surrounded by soil and Will Allen has planted his roots around farming and food. A plant needs soil to survive and Will Allen needed farming to survive. His whole life and job has revolved around planting.

character, seeming to shape the actions and tweak the paths of the people that live in it. Moving to New York is painted as a decision to give up your roots, and look to the future. In the city, “History is over...and everything’s ahead at last” (Morrison 7). The past is forgotten, as everyone is thinking constantly about the future ahead of them. Having roots, which are what connect one to their heritage and to their past, is impossible when all the focus is on the next thing. Morrison suggests through

share resources, and exhibit less competition and more cooperation with their kin. Plants are able to recognize fellow kin through responses to VOCs from relatives, and perform acts of altruism to kin by resource partitioning amongst siblings through root allocation (Karban R et al. 2013). The current research on plant kinship and areas of future research will be discussed, as well the controversies surrounding this subject. Despite the debate on plant kinship, Volatile Organic
