Maybe because its animations or its just showing every process with a picture (figure), it makes me understand it way better. Photosynthesis produces oxygen and plants and animals eat sugar which is glucose which makes atp after plants and animals eat it. After the process we get cellular respiration. The videos also compare the stages into stuff we have such as the thylakoids, they’re stacks of pancakes to granum.

Those trees are mostly what they call “naked seed” as they mention on the website of the university of Georgia, “The name gymnosperm is from Greek meaning “naked seed.” The gymnosperm group includes conifers, cycads, ginkgo, and gnetophytes with 12 major families, 84 genera, and more than 1,075 species scattered around the globe.” Where I used to live, there were many pinecones that were on the floor from the pine tree dropping. There was a lot of those trees around that area. They mention a lot of information according what type of trees Georgia has, “The cypress family in Georgia is represented by four tree species. The redwood family, which can be included within the cypress family by taxonomists, has two species in Georgia. Georgia has 21 native gymnosperm trees.” I’ve seen many conifers trees where I have lived. The website also mentions how many families and genera and even how many species there are. ]]> 2020-10-05 00:56:12 UTC https://padlet.com/msername/adkkm795pmqpasj1/wish/801492651 unit 4 msername https://padlet.com/msername/adkkm795pmqpasj1/wish/839626492 Global warming can harm the grassland biome. Later on, it won’t feed the plants and trees enough water, rain, and the grassland won’t survive. Agriculture is a big factor that can cause a major shift in the grassland biome. By getting the soil people need having big crops can cause for the habitat to be lost for the wildlife. We need the chain to be in order, in order for everything to flow the right way. They need to fix the soil where it can grow back what it has lost and not destroy. They just leave the field they had destroyed and go to another one to do the same harm.

In the diagram it shows how it impacted the genes from plants, the traits, the agriculture, and the technology. Humans can get diseases from the pesticides, it’s a health risk. In the article it mentions how the pests can cause such a problem for the plants, “Globally, crop losses from pests, pathogens and weeds amount to 25–40% of the production of our most important food crops [59]. Increased damages thus have real potential to not only decrease grower profits, but also significantly impact global food supply and human nutrition.” Different things happen with plant domestication.

Burning coal was the source of heat, where a lot started. The steam engine was made to carry water to move to another area. In the 19th century, engineering was where more things was being formed. ]]> 2020-11-10 02:00:44 UTC https://padlet.com/msername/adkkm795pmqpasj1/wish/906774736 unit 7 msername https://padlet.com/msername/adkkm795pmqpasj1/wish/947509529 On the article I found it mentions aspirin is the most popular they derived from a plant, "Indeed, nearly half of all human pharmaceuticals now in use were originally derived from natural sources. Perhaps the most famous example is aspirin, which evolved from a compound found in the bark and leaves of the willow tree and was later marketed by Bayer starting in 1899." I chose this article because I didn't even know that aspirin came from a plant. It's pretty interesting how something comes out of a plant or humans take it out to make something for us. ]]> 2020-11-21 01:27:23 UTC https://padlet.com/msername/adkkm795pmqpasj1/wish/947509529 unit 8 msername https://padlet.com/msername/adkkm795pmqpasj1/wish/996746602 If we don't make sure everything is good and not take care of things, we will end up like this and we wont be able to fix most things. We have to take care of our plants, not get rid of more. I chose this picture because I feel like more people are taking down trees and that's what we need the most, we get oxygen by trees. Not controlling the social, agriculture and other things can make everything go wild and things not be taken care of . ]]> 2020-12-08 02:52:02 UTC https://padlet.com/msername/adkkm795pmqpasj1/wish/996746602
