My interview with Henoch

What Henoch Learned is about how plants grow. he was amazed that there were different kinds of broccoli. what made him laugh was how such a little seed turned into a plant. What made him pause to think deeper was how mitosis is a big factor in the growth of a plant

We are experimenting on broccoli. Its an edible plant that almost looks like a mini tree. You can predict its kinds of offsprings by looking at it parents. It's plants offsprings will looks a like because of its genes being passed down. The reason why all our plants look different even though they're related is because they all have different parents with somewhat different genes. So many forms of plants have created this one plant by passing down many individual organisms and traits to create one unique plant.

How Does Your Plant Grow?

What keeps our plant getting bigger is through the mitosis cycle, because what it does is make one cell into multiple cells. To send messages to the nucleus, proteins would create the enzymes for them to send out to the rest of the plant.

through these past weeks our groups  plants have grown successfully from being a little seed wrapped in a paper towel to actual broccoli. What tells us that our plant is healthy and well alive is its appearance and surroundings, how its well fed of sunlight and water.

A abiotic factor that possibly depended the survival of our plants wes maybe the sun light. Because plants are autotrophs, they need energy, which is provided from sunlight.
Our plants can me competing withe other plants bases on any similarities that they might have, for example soil.
Winners and a losers are determined by who's plants has grown bigger and healthier. And will be determined who's plant has either died out or possibly haven't grown as much.
Our plants can have an interaction with animals or more likely insects. These can effect our plants because these insects or animals can be eating our plants and effect its growth.
It could be a primary secession because the ecosystem is growing

Blog 3

This week, going back to the garden where we planted our plants. Observing it we noticed that were a couple holes in one of our plants. We believed it might have been a caterpillar.
The way our plants connect with the water cycle is the way it soaks it up from the soil.
Our plants connect with the carbon cycle from the dead organisms and waste products on the ground.
Our pants were probably able to get nitrogen and connect with its cycle because of the rain and the bacteria in the soil.

Joe Fordyce Interview Blog #8

Joe has learned that broccoli can grow larger than 2 inches and can grow several feet. He was surprised that there was a reflection that made his plant grow twice as fast. The size of his plant made him laugh. The spot of his plant with the reflection made him think a little bit deeper. He thought long and hard.

We are experimenting with broccoli. It's starting to grow the actual edible part of the plant. I could predict the plants parents were green. The things that are on the plant that will be passed with insects to move to different places. The looks of its offspring may very.

Post #6

Our garden has been growing as a whole. All of our plants have been taking over the garden. The garden looks much more full of life. Photosynthesis has played a huge roll on our plants. Our plants have been growing a slower speed because we don’t get as much sunlight.

My Journey

So this will be my final blog post of this semester. I have learned so many things that I can't even name all of them. My favorite thing was how there is so many different kinds of broccoli. I thought there was only one type of broccoli. I was very wrong. There are so many kinds! It made me laugh on how a tiny white sapling turned into and big, green, edible plant. Although it really made me think on how mitosis is a really big factor in the growth of the plant. Through the amazing effect of multiplying every cell, the plant grows larger every day.

Different Kinds Of The Same Species

So yet another post for my story of the seed blog. I am experimenting on the broccoli. I'm pretty sure you've heard of it. But if you haven't, it is a small, green plant that has a head on top of it that looks like tiny little dots. There is not enough information to really know what parents my plant came from. My plant can pass down its genetic information by mating with another plant and some of its chromosomes will pass down when it has a baby. I think the child will look very similar because since they are the same species, I don't think they will look very different.
                 I think the reason why some plants look different is because they might have came from different parents and their parents could be a different type of broccoli. I think the reason why there are so many types of broccoli is through adaption. People take a broccoli from its normal place and place it in hotter of colder weather so eventually, the broccoli adapt to its new surroundings.

How Does Your Garden Grow

Well here is another blog post. This would be my sixth blog post! My plant is getting much bigger and bigger in many different ways. Through mitosis, the procedure that makes one cell into multiple, is a very major factor in how my plant has grown. If the cells keep on multiplying like that, it is obvious how my plant could've grown that large.
            For my plant to make all these important enzymes the first thing they would have to do is obviously to send a signal to the nucleus. Then they next thing would be the amino acids creating those enzymes then to send them out in different parts of the plant.

Plant Update

Well I'm here with a plant update to show how much my plants have improved. It is remarkable how much the plants have grown! From a tiny little stem into little saplings and then a big , large plant. The color has also changed from white to light green and from light green to a very darker green. I can now prove my plant is a living thing because it needs the necessities of living things like water but also because, like living things, grows and changes.

Plant Analysis

Well here is another blog post about my plants. There are many abiotic and biotic factors that have affected my plants. Some abiotic factors are ones such as water, soil, temperature, sunlight, etc. Some biotic factors may be insects, who could eat our plants. There are squirrels or dogs who could trample over the plants. And there is also other plants, who could be competing for the same soil or water.
             And like I said, there is many competition between the plants. They could be fighting over many things, most of which I had just named as abiotic factors. Usually, there is no clear winner or loser if they are the same species. It is very hard to tell sometimes.
            A good example of interaction is my plants and the insects. The plants are harmed because the insects are eating it and the insects are harmed because the plants will be soon gone and they'll starve if they eat too much.
            I think this is primary succession because the ecosystem is growing.

The Plants And The Cycle

Hello, I'm back with another blog post! My plant has been growing very well. Some of the leaves have holes so some other creatures must have eaten it. My plants have been taking in water from the ground yet at the same time, released water back down. The plants receive lots of carbon and in return, release lots of oxygen in the atmosphere.
