SOTS #5!

I interviewed Caleb Spencer from first period. My first question was how did you enjoy the garden? He said it was cool because he interacted with nature. Second question was if he ever got mad while growing plants. He said he didn't "there just plants." What other life did you see in the garden I asked him. Caleb mentioned chickens and bugs such as beetles. My fourth question was what do your plants look like now. He said they've covered in weeds and grass. My final question was did you like growing. Caleb said yes it was fun since he could be outside.

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.

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...

SOTS #4 An Ecological Analysis of the Garden And Our Plants

   Our plants depend on a variety of factors both abiotic and biotic. Abiotic factors include for example sunlight. The amount of sunlight affects the plant’s ability to provide food for itself through photosynthesis. Also temperature greatly affects plants because if it gets too cold the plants will die. The amount of rain or nitrogen present in soil are other very important factors as well. Biotic factors on the other hand include predation by insects or voles. If there are too many of these organisms then the plants all get eaten. Another biotic factor is the plants themselves competing for space and food. Larger plants will dominate other more small unsuccessful plants.   The plants are indeed in competition with each other. They’re competing for room to grow and resources like sunlight and nitrogen. The larger plants are more likely to grow and become successful. The others may die of suffocation or lack of resources.   Winners and losers are determined by w...
