Many people rely on their crops growing as their main source of income. Aside from income, these plants are important for nutrition purposes. Crops such as these are used/eaten every single day..making them essential. That is why plants play such an essential role in our environment. ]]> 2020-06-11 22:55:48 UTC https://padlet.com/hwest51/q1yysz93loappayu/wish/623243075 hwest51 https://padlet.com/hwest51/q1yysz93loappayu/wish/623244752 I chose this video because it is an accurate explanation of the process of photosynthesis. This video is also easy to understand and learn from. The guy in the video gives good examples, and explains the process well!]]> 2020-06-11 22:58:21 UTC https://padlet.com/hwest51/q1yysz93loappayu/wish/623244752 hwest51 https://padlet.com/hwest51/q1yysz93loappayu/wish/623244818 This is called Osmunda cinnamomea. This fern is native to North America, and will be found throughout Georgia. The common name for this fern is Cinnamon Fern. It's taxonomic name is Osmunda Cinnamomea. Fun fact: Its habitat is wet, acidic soils, swamps, sphagnum bogs, wet woods, and along streams.]]> 2020-06-11 22:58:26 UTC https://padlet.com/hwest51/q1yysz93loappayu/wish/623244818 hwest51 https://padlet.com/hwest51/q1yysz93loappayu/wish/623244876 I believe the ocean is always in danger. There are so many careless people who continue to pollute our oceans. This is very harming to our plants and even more to our animals who's habitats are located in the ocean. If people were to care just a little bit more about throwing their empty water bottle in the ocean, I wouldn't feel so negatively about the oceans going downhill. ]]> 2020-06-11 22:58:32 UTC https://padlet.com/hwest51/q1yysz93loappayu/wish/623244876 hwest51 https://padlet.com/hwest51/q1yysz93loappayu/wish/623244928 This diagram accurately represents the impact of the agricultural revolution. The increase in agricultural production and technological advancements during the Agricultural Revolution contributed to unprecedented population growth and new agricultural practices, triggering such phenomena as rural-to-urban migration, development of a coherent and loosely regulated agricultural market, and emergence of capitalist farmers. New farming techniques and improved livestock breeding led to amplified food production. This allowed a spike in population and increased health. ]]> 2020-06-11 22:58:37 UTC https://padlet.com/hwest51/q1yysz93loappayu/wish/623244928 hwest51 https://padlet.com/hwest51/q1yysz93loappayu/wish/623244972 The third agricultural revolution was known as the Green Revolution and began in the 1930's. New agricultural practices were created to help farmers all over the world and eliminate hunger by improving the output and quality of crops.  Farmers could now use the same amount of land and get more crops. ]]> 2020-06-11 22:58:39 UTC https://padlet.com/hwest51/q1yysz93loappayu/wish/623244972 hwest51 https://padlet.com/hwest51/q1yysz93loappayu/wish/623245048 I believe the Aloe Vera plant is one of the most important. Aloe Vera is used to help treat and relieve burns and skin rashes. This is so important to me because I have been sunburnt, burnt myself in the kitchen, or with hot tools and this is the only thing that relieves the pain! These plants are lifesavers in my opinion!]]> 2020-06-11 22:58:45 UTC https://padlet.com/hwest51/q1yysz93loappayu/wish/623245048 hwest51 https://padlet.com/hwest51/q1yysz93loappayu/wish/623245097 I chose this photo because it depicts a healthy farm. I believe that in the future, we will continue to have successful farming and agriculture. As long as todays farmers maintain the work they are doing we should continue to stay positive!]]> 2020-06-11 22:58:50 UTC https://padlet.com/hwest51/q1yysz93loappayu/wish/623245097
