Recently, i noticed that the kale plant is getting pretty big. It looks like a sprout but with a red outline. Last night it rained, which is why the plant looks like it had dew on it this morning. Also, it is green because of the chloroplast inside of the leaves that lets them use carbon dioxide for photosynthesis, and then turn it into oxygen. It is just going to get bigger, and that's because of nitrogen. In nature, bacteria refine nitrogen, which is consumed by the plant to make it cells.
T he abiotic factors that our plant depends on are sun, which gives them the energy to photosynthesize, water, that keeps them hydrated, and temperature, so they don't burn up or freeze. Some biotic factors are soil, so they can get nitrogen, and other plants, because those other plants cold take away some nutrients. The plants we grew are also engaged in competition with the weeds around them. They are competing for sun, water, and soil. We know they are in competition because they are both trying to fill the same niche, and each plant wants the same resources. When two different types of organisms compete, sometimes it takes minutes, sometimes it takes eons, but most of the time there is a winner. The winner gets to keep the niche, and gets all the resources they were competing for. The loser dies, or has to emigrate to a different habitat. But sometimes it's not that easy. If the loser has children before it dies, and the winner stays childless, than who is the real wi...
