They produce oxygen and absorb carbon dioxide during photosynthesis. Plants provide many products for human use such as firewood, medicines, oils, etc. They also provide homes for animals.]]> 2021-01-23 04:48:46 UTC https://padlet.com/awrigh381/qxv59dx7cpfqs1qg/wish/1116387709 awrigh381 https://padlet.com/awrigh381/qxv59dx7cpfqs1qg/wish/1162330047 I found this video interesting because it goes into everything that concerns photosynthesis. It gives a visual of what happens in photosynthesis to better understand how it works. We need plant to go through this process to survive. I found it interesting on the history behind it. ]]> 2021-02-04 07:25:59 UTC https://padlet.com/awrigh381/qxv59dx7cpfqs1qg/wish/1162330047 awrigh381 https://padlet.com/awrigh381/qxv59dx7cpfqs1qg/wish/1213555537 Gymnosperms  are plants that have seeds unprotected by an ovary or fruit. The largest  gymnosperm / conifer family in Georgia is the pine family with 14 species. The common name for a Pine Tree is Pinus. Across North America, the pine family includes cedar, fir, hemlock, larch, pine, and spruce. https://www.warnell.uga.edu/sites/default/files/publications/WSFNR-20-24C_Coder.pdf]]> 2021-02-18 02:09:51 UTC https://padlet.com/awrigh381/qxv59dx7cpfqs1qg/wish/1213555537 awrigh381 https://padlet.com/awrigh381/qxv59dx7cpfqs1qg/wish/1260941204 A feature of the tundra is the distinct lack of trees and short growing season. The tundra has few nutrients to support plant and animal life. With its harsh weather and scarce resources, the Tundra is one of the most dangerous biomes in the world. In addition to the extreme cold, dangers in the tundra are as disparate as predation from polar bears to dangerous levels of ultraviolet radiation. ]]> 2021-03-02 21:54:15 UTC https://padlet.com/awrigh381/qxv59dx7cpfqs1qg/wish/1260941204 awrigh381 https://padlet.com/awrigh381/qxv59dx7cpfqs1qg/wish/1362414939 The Neolithic Revolution, also called the Agricultural Revolution, marked the transition in human history from small, nomadic bands of hunter-gatherers to larger, agricultural settlements and early civilization. The Neolithic Revolution started around 10,000 B.C. This revolution allowed farmers too settle into permanent villages instead of moving around. People farmed and had many specialized jobs.]]> 2021-03-29 01:23:17 UTC https://padlet.com/awrigh381/qxv59dx7cpfqs1qg/wish/1362414939 awrigh381 https://padlet.com/awrigh381/qxv59dx7cpfqs1qg/wish/1362458920  The machine in this picture is called a plow. It is a tool or farm implement for initial cultivation of soil in preparation for sowing seed or planting. I chose this invention because it has really helped farmers turn and break up soil, bury crop residues, and to help control weeds. ]]> 2021-03-29 01:42:32 UTC https://padlet.com/awrigh381/qxv59dx7cpfqs1qg/wish/1362458920 awrigh381 https://padlet.com/awrigh381/qxv59dx7cpfqs1qg/wish/1430701502 I believe the most influential drug derived from a plant is caffeine. Caffeine is a natural stimulant most commonly found in tea, coffee, and cacao plants. It works by stimulating the brain and central nervous system, helping you stay alert and prevent the start of tiredness.]]> 2021-04-18 22:22:05 UTC https://padlet.com/awrigh381/qxv59dx7cpfqs1qg/wish/1430701502 awrigh381 https://padlet.com/awrigh381/qxv59dx7cpfqs1qg/wish/1483421260 Sustainable development is defined as meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. The issues at the heart of sustainable development include global warming, climate change,  natural disasters, poor soil conditions , and deforestation. These are many consequences that happens when we don't develop sustainably. ]]> 2021-05-03 00:57:21 UTC https://padlet.com/awrigh381/qxv59dx7cpfqs1qg/wish/1483421260
