It shows how plants release nitrogen to help create the air we breathe. In this picture you can also see a little rodent which you could say that represents us as a consumer.]]> 2018-01-19 20:35:02 UTC https://padlet.com/allieg14/8co3uet0azzq/wish/222947494 allieg14 https://padlet.com/allieg14/8co3uet0azzq/wish/227264757 This is a short video that I picked because it shows the process so well. It's a short enough video that it does not make you lose attention. If you do not know anything about photosynthesis than it is a great video to watch. It breaks down the process for the simple minded easily as well.

A little bit about the plant is that it sends up new frond in fall which then dies back in spring. It turns a bronze color after frost unless covered by leaves. The scientific name is Botrychium biternatum.]]> 2018-02-19 16:49:57 UTC https://padlet.com/allieg14/8co3uet0azzq/wish/232985549 allieg14 https://padlet.com/allieg14/8co3uet0azzq/wish/236588710 With its harsh weather and scarce resources, the tundra is one of the most dangerous biomes in the world. The melting of the permafrost as a result of global warming could radically change the landscape and what species are able to live there. Ozone depletion at the North and South Poles means stronger ultraviolet rays that will harm the tundra.

Some positives to this revolution was that there was an increase in farming, people started to settle down in towns, food surplus, and new technology. The negatives were gender inequality, diseases, and land erosion. There were more positives than negatives and helped our world evolve.]]> 2018-03-12 14:45:42 UTC https://padlet.com/allieg14/8co3uet0azzq/wish/240899539 allieg14 https://padlet.com/allieg14/8co3uet0azzq/wish/249374613 A genetically modified organism, or GMO, is an organism that has had its DNA altered or modified in some way through genetic engineering. In most cases, GMOs have been altered with DNA from another organism, be it a bacterium, plant, virus or animal. I chose GMO's because as the years progress they find new ways to use them.]]> 2018-04-06 21:38:21 UTC https://padlet.com/allieg14/8co3uet0azzq/wish/249374613 allieg14 https://padlet.com/allieg14/8co3uet0azzq/wish/252836322 Paclitaxel, the most well-known natural-source cancer drug in the United States, is derived from the bark of the Pacific yew tree and is used in the treatment of breast, lung, and ovarian cancer, as well as Kaposi's sarcoma. This is a product that was used on my grandmother when she breast cancer. Today, she is cancer free]]> 2018-04-18 03:07:50 UTC https://padlet.com/allieg14/8co3uet0azzq/wish/252836322 allieg14 https://padlet.com/allieg14/8co3uet0azzq/wish/253223416 If agricultural practices started to go unchecked then there is a possibility that crops would die. Agriculture is a business that continually keeps growing. To keep the industry in a good standing there can be no neglect for the plants.]]> 2018-04-18 22:27:26 UTC https://padlet.com/allieg14/8co3uet0azzq/wish/253223416
