process of photosynthesis to occur. Photosynthesis is the process wherein plants create oxygen and food for themselves (glucose) using carbon dioxide, water and energy from the sun. Once this process is completed, plants are able to grow using the nutrients provided by photosynthesis. Word equation: carbon dioxide + water (SUNLIGHT AND CHLORYPHYLL) glucose + oxygen There are many factors that affect photosynthesis such as light availability, carbon dioxide concentration and temperature. Light is
and fluid intake on the SuperTracker website. The purpose of this was to determine and understand what I was eating and how what I put into my body directly effects it. Too little or too much of certain nutrients can be harmful over time and the SuperTracker helped to determine which nutrients I needed less or more of. Also, it provided me with some insight on how I can change my eating habits to provide my body with the nourishment that it needs. There were similarities amongst my daily food
Coal seam gas (CSG) is mostly composed of methane and is typically attached to coal underground. This gas is released when pressure on the coal seam is reduced by removing water from the seams (Queensland Government, 2014 ). In order to obtain the gas, wells are drilled into the coal seams, bringing water from the coal seams to the surface. This process reduces pressure and allows the gas to be released (Queensland Government, 2014 ). CSG is an important energy resource in Queensland and production
The last four week our group has been tasked with looking into and researching micro farming in a small enclosed area of a greenhouse in mills wyoming we had four weeks to research and build a prototype of a micro farm with the dimensions 2’ x 2’ or 24in x 24in by however tall we would like to make we can not use sprouted plants we have to start with seeds. We had a set budget of xxxx. Our goal was to grow as many food calorie wise from september to december but we could not modify the farm after

The importance of plants is often overlooked by the general public. They don’t realize when they eat, wear, or build something that none of it would be possible without plants. Complex life itself only exists thanks to the evolution of plants. Throughout this essay, I hope to highlight some of the most important aspects of plants including their ecological roles, historical roles, source of food, medicinal uses, spices, erosion control, soil contribution, and many others. The list of plant importance
Nitrogen is used by plants in order to synthesize protein peptide bonds and for cell growth. Not only is this nutrient required in the largest quantity by plants, but it is also the most frequently limiting factor when it comes to productivity in crops. Plants cannot use nitrogen in the air and in the soil system it is lost easily. Because of this plants are forced to obtain nitrogen in the form of nitrate and ammonium from the soil. Too much nitrate can cause a negative effect on the plant including
