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.

STOTS #7

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.

jacks seed story/ wills stots #5

I interveiwed Jack Panighetti for story of the seed #5. first question, what surprised you during the year? Jack: I was surprised when we saw the onion cell under the mircoscope. Will: what was the hardest project we've done so far? Jack: the hardest project I've done so far is when we repaired and painted the chicken coop. it was difficult because my partners did'nt show up some times and the hay was hard to get out. Will: what have you learned about growing plants? Jack: Over time I have learned that the plants need time to grow and you have to check up on them to make sure the weeds are not stealing water from our plants. Will: that's the end of our interveiw, thanks.

TSOTS #6

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...
