Madex Kim - SOTS #1

9/5/19                                        SBPA #1 My Experience With Plants

    My name is Madex Kim and I have lived in San Jose, California for all my life. Our old houses had large gardens which could be used to grow many plants. I used to help my grandma whom I'll get into later. My experience with growing plants were mostly in my childhood. I grew a sunflower that I got the seeds from my elementary school. Also I learned from somewhere that tree branches can be grown even if broken off. So I did with my sister, but when we were moving out of the house we pulled the branch out. We believed that the branch was dead, but over a few months it actually grew roots. Currently I'm growing succulents because they're easy to grow.
   My grandma has been growing plants for a long time. From vegetables to trees. She really use to enjoy planting and gardening and she gives me tips always even when she can't herself now.

Tsots #3 Zander Calfee

Zander calfee 10/22/19 Bio-1(1)        1 one change that I noticed was that out plant wasn’t getting bigger like before but our neighbor’s plant was becoming very big I think our plant is competing with the other plants and losing . 2. The plant’s role in the water cycle is transpiration they absorb water through the ground and then it evaporates through the leaves.  3. They absorb carbon through the air from animals carbon dioxide and then they give oxygen to the animals which make more carbon dioxide.i think the other plants big leaves are covering our plants leaves so it can’t get carbon dioxide  4.our plant uses nitrogen from the ground for energy than that energy is eaten by animals than they poop nitrogen which is absorbed through the ground. I think that are not getting nitrogen because the other plant is taking it from the ground.

In flowers, the system of reproduction is like humans. The male organs on the plants will release pollen into the atmosphere and letting the wind carry it to wherever it may. Then, once the pollen lands on a female organ, the organ will take it in and combine it with is own genetic material to make a seed. When it is done making the seeds, they will be released into the wind, to land somewhere, grow, and repeat the process for an indefinate amount of time.

How does our garden grow. Well it would be necessary to evaluate the current condition of our brassica plants. They have grown taller and wider. Much like the other plants in the garden they’re thriving in green colorations. Unfortunately some appear to be eaten. All the plants are overshadowed by one group’s plant which is much larger than the rest. Now it is important to think more scientific. How are our plants growing is a more important question. Well through photosynthesis the plants obtain sugars to be used by the plants from its chloroplasts. Cellular respiration allows the plants to convert common energies into these nutrients. Much like how food makes a person grow, photosynthesis and cellular respiration makes a plant grow. Of course there is a further explanation of why these sugars makes a plant grow. With more energy comes a greater rate of cell division through mitosis. Mitosis creates myriads of more cells making a little sprout into a great tree.  PKG and Rubisco...
