Which part (anatomy) or characteristic of the  Brassica oleracea  plants seems to exhibit the most variation (greatest number of different forms)? Which part or characteristic of the  Brassica oleracea  plants seems to show the greatest  range  of variation (biggest difference between one extreme and its opposite)? Use  and include  data collected from multiple measurements to support your answer.        The part of the plant that showed the most variation was the leaves. The length, width, and appearance of the leaves were different. I noticed that some of the leaves would be as long as 8.1 inches, while the shortest leafs length would be as small as 2.3 inches.  The largest width being 5.7 inches and the smallest being 2.3.   The leaves of the plants also showed variation in appearance. Some plants had light green leaves while others had dark purple leaves.  The part of the plant that offered the most range was also the leaves. The leaves had the largest contrast from each othe

Service Project (Garden)

      I talked Mr. Bursch and decided to beautify a garden for my service project. It was a native garden so we got bought drought resistant native plants. We went to Home Depot and picked up soil, a shovel and two plants. One was a Rosemary plant and one was a sage plant. We brought them to school, dug two holes, poured fresh dirt and then planted them. We watered the and picked up all the trash that was around in the garden. All totaled the materials and plant cost $40.00. prices: shovel: $8.00 plants: $14.00(each) soil: $7.00

Blog Post #7: Anthers and Stigmas and Styles, Oh My: Dissection of a Flower

This image provided above shows the anthers surrounding around the stigma on a flower. The anther is the part of the flower where the pollen is created. The stigma is the part of the flower where pollen also germinates. When both the female and male parts are visible in the same flower the flower is known to be "excellent". This photo above shows the stamen of the flower, which is the pollen producer. It usually has a slender filament supporting the anther. It's the male reproductive anatomy of the flower, it consists of a stock known as the filament and at the end of the stalk is a part called the anther. Now, this picture above shows the female anatomy of a flower known as the carpel The carpel is a structure that produces egg cells and protects a developing baby plant . The three main parts of a carpel are the style, stigma, and ovary. This is an image of the flower with the stamens, sepals, petals and the top of the carpel removed, leaving it was

Blog Post #6: How Does Your Garden Grow - Ella Zamudio

Question 1: Our plant has grown quite the length since we've checked up on it. There's a number of reasons causing it to grow.a It begins with mitosis, also referred to as cell division. This is a process in which their job is working with the growth and development in a eukaryotic cell. In mitosis, there's fivae stages. In order, the stages go prophase, interphase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. There's also another stage, however it's the finishing product, so it's not usually grouped in with the stages to make it complete. It's name is cytokinesis, this is when the cell splits into two. However, let's go back into the other stages. First, prophase. In prophase, chromosomes become visible, the nucleolus disappears, the mitotic spindle forms, and the nuclear envelope disappears. Chromosomes then become more and more coiled to the point where it can be shown under a microscope. In interphase, cellular organelles double, the DNA

Blog Post #6: How Does Your Garden Grow

Question 1: Our plant has grown significantly since we last  checked up on it. This is Because of a number of things. It all starts with cell division also known as mitosis. This is a process that is in charge development and growth within a eukaryotic cell. There are five stages of mitosis.  prophase, interphase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. There is also  cytokinesis when the cell actually splits.  In prophase Chromosomes become visible, the nucleolus disappears, the mitotic spindle forms, and the nuclear envelope disappears. Chromosomes become more coiled and can be viewed under a microscope! In interphase cellular organelles double in number, the DNA replicates, and protein synthesis occurs. The chromosomes are not visible and the DNA appears as uncoiled chromatin. In metaphase the microtubules of the spindle have attached and the chromosomes have lined up on the metaphase plate. In anaphase each sister chromatid of a chromosome has spindle fibers attached to it.

The  Plant will grow slower based  percentage sodium cases visnder alen 2 - What surprised you? On the first day when we checked the seeds, comparing all the seeds and seeing how much they grew than others, the fact that almost all of them didn't grow was surprising. 3 - What made you laugh? The 8% didn't grow at all, and now seeing that it's like that I know why my plants did not grow. 4 - What make you think a little deeper? It is important to know what we can do for the enviornment, plants affect lots of thing in life.
