  1. What changes do you notice in your plants this week? Describe the overall appearance of your plant. When we planted to plant a while back it was just a seed. Over time I have only gone to see them a couple of times but when I have I have seen huge growth each time
  2. How do your plants participate in the movement of water in the biosphere? How do your plants' roles in the water cycle relate to the changes you observed in your plants this week? through the process of transpiration. Transpiration is the process by which moisture is carried through plants from roots to small pockets on the underside of leaves. then there it is released into the atmosphere. My plant's role in the water cycle affected its growth because it needs water to grow and the process of water cycle is giving it water through its roots.
  3. How do your plants participate in the movement of carbon in the biosphere?  How do your plants' roles in the carbon cycle relate to the changes you observed in your plants this week? plants convert atmospheric carbon dioxide to carbon based compounds through photosynthesis. my plants role in the carbon cycle relates to its growth is because it uses the process of photosynthesis for food. that is how they are growing is through photosynthesis.
  4. How do your plants participate in the movement of nitrogen in the biosphere?  How do your plants' roles in the nitrogen cycle relate to the changes you observed in your plants this week? they participate due to the continual loss of nitrogen from the reserve of combined or fixed nitrogen, which is seen and available for use by plants. this affects the the changes of my plant because it the nitrogen cycle nitrogen becomes available to them, which is essential for them to grow.

  Which part (anatomy) or characteristic of the Brassica oleracea plants seems to exhibit the most variation (greatest number of different forms)? Which part or characteristic of the Brassica oleracea plants seems to show the greatest range of variation (biggest difference between one extreme and its opposite)? Use and include data collected from multiple measurements to support your answer. The characteristic of the Brassica oleracea plants that seem to exhibit the most variation is the ratio of length to width size of the leaves on the variety of plants. for example one of the plants the ratio from length to width of the leaf is 1.14 cm, another leaf's ratio of length to width is 1.75 cm, and the last plants' leaf is .93 cm. this shows a great variety and most variation in terms of traits of the plants. the greatest range of size between the ratio of the leaves is .93 cm compared to 1.75 cm. that is a .82 cm difference between ratio of leaf size between the plants...

My plant got bigger as time went on. Mitosis helps the plant grow bigger by creating two daughter cells, that will increase the number of cells in the plant. The cell replicates its chromosomes and then splits the copied chromosomes. More cells mean more bigger the plant's body gets. All the branches and leaves spread out and get bigger do to more cells. Photosynthesis helps a plant utilizes sunlight as an energy source. This energy source is converted into ATP. Plants make their own food by using the sun's light with carbon dioxide and water with chlorophyll to make oxygen and glucose. Glucose helps with fats, oils, and starch for storage. All this is used to make cellulose for cell walls and proteins for growth. Chlorophyll gives the plant its green color. Cellular respiration helps the plant with oxygen and glucose which acts as energy for the plant. Glycolysis splits the two glucose molecules called pyruvate which expel small amount of ATP. The formed carbon dioxide and e...
