TSOTS #3 Will B

This week our crop of kale was raided by a variety of insects and mice/ birds. Our group has had to replant and have one remaining plant growing. Our groups single plant is leafy green and has a red/purple stem and is about 7 inches tall. The plants role in the water  movement is its transpiration. the plant takes in some of the water we give it and the other percentage transpirates. We can see this in the plants growth. Another cycle our plants go through is the carbon cycle. Through photosynthesis the plants take in carbon dioxide and combine it with water to make sugars and oxygen. I have seen this in our by because its growing. We can see the nitrogen cycle in our plants growth. The plants absorb the nitrates from the soil into their roots.

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.

Food Inc. Essay

Madex Kim Period #1 Should Access To Healthy Food Be A Right For Everyone?   The idea of eating healthy is advertised throughout the media. If you don’t eat healthy your labeled as fat or having a body to shame. However we are overlooking an essential part and that is the cost. Healthy food is expensive whether it’s fresh vegetables, organic fruits, whole grain loafs, or lean meats. Although many of us can easily purchase these food items there are others who can’t. These people are the poor, the immigrants, or labor workers. They’re people who are in situations we may not understand. Some wake up and work all day just to receive little pay. Which is why such people go down the path of eating unhealthy. Why pay for just a head of broccoli when you can pay for a Double Quarter Pounder with fries and a soda at the same price.  Healthy foods need to be a right for all to receive because it’s in fact beneficial to all!   Providing healthy foods to all is in fact ...

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...
