It is one of the main sources of living. Plants are used for a variety of things such as: food, clothing, medication, etc. It's even used for the air we breath and the water we drink. With out plants, these things wouldn't be accessible, and in fact, we wouldn't be living. ]]> 2018-09-07 03:06:40 UTC https://padlet.com/vaughn_liyah/70qcxhrj674e/wish/278711144 vaughn_liyah https://padlet.com/vaughn_liyah/70qcxhrj674e/wish/289453692 Gymnosperms are plants that produce seeds that are unprotected by an ovary.

I chose this picture because people think of organic foods as being really clean and healthy. Organic foods are all natural foods. But when we look at the 3rd agriculture revolution also known as the Green Revolution,  there's really a huge battle between nature and science. As you see in the picture, on the conventional side, the farmer in genetically growing crops. ]]> 2018-11-16 03:27:20 UTC https://padlet.com/vaughn_liyah/70qcxhrj674e/wish/305109060 vaughn_liyah https://padlet.com/vaughn_liyah/70qcxhrj674e/wish/309612677 Vitamins are nutrients that our body needs in order to function properly. Vitamins come from a variety of different plants and, in my opinion, are one of the most influential chemicals used around the world.

Plant cells are the only cells that are able to produce glucose, also known as sugars. Photosynthesis goes through 2 stages. Stage 1: LIGHT DEPENDENT REACTION- the reaction depends on presence of light. Stages 2: LIGHT INDEPENDENT OR DARK REACTION- this reaction can proceed in the absence of light. ]]> 2018-11-30 23:20:27 UTC https://padlet.com/vaughn_liyah/70qcxhrj674e/wish/310009281
