The sunlight helps the plants flourish and grow. In return gives us fresh oxygen we need to survive. Plants also provide many essential foods that we need to survive]]> 2020-01-18 01:45:59 UTC https://padlet.com/krollin4/wyamly4qms6w/wish/433201880 krollin4 https://padlet.com/krollin4/wyamly4qms6w/wish/439076682 This video was chosen due the quick demonstration of how Photosynthesis works. Although it was created for childrens understanding it covers all the major points. It explains the main things used in photosynthesis such as sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water. I enjoyed the simple demonstrations as they were not only easy to follow but remember. ]]> 2020-02-01 02:40:24 UTC https://padlet.com/krollin4/wyamly4qms6w/wish/439076682 krollin4 https://padlet.com/krollin4/wyamly4qms6w/wish/447186535 Magnolia is native to Georgia and there are many different species.  With them being a flower needing a lot of sunlight and water they do well here. The most common one is the Big leaf Magnolia (Magnolia Macrophylla). These are found a lot in large landscaping areas as they need the space to flourish. ]]> 2020-02-19 01:31:44 UTC https://padlet.com/krollin4/wyamly4qms6w/wish/447186535 krollin4 https://padlet.com/krollin4/wyamly4qms6w/wish/452303661 Grasslands are in most danger of ecological change. Grasslands take up about 8% of the earths surface and only about 3% of that is protected. I believe that they are in danger due to the large increase in population the grasslands are now used for things such as crop production and urbanization. The danger is unfortunately not something that happens naturally, but one that is caused by human actions. These actions include overgrazing, crop clearing, and poor agriculture practices. ]]> 2020-02-29 01:10:44 UTC https://padlet.com/krollin4/wyamly4qms6w/wish/452303661 krollin4 https://padlet.com/krollin4/wyamly4qms6w/wish/459609063 The Neolithic Revolution did have many advantages and disadvantages. One of the biggest increase was with food, as we can see on the top of the chart listed below the advantages were steady food supply and greater populations. As the population increased other food supplies were needed resulting in the hunting of animals. As the food supply increased humans settled.]]> 2020-03-13 00:09:00 UTC https://padlet.com/krollin4/wyamly4qms6w/wish/459609063 krollin4 https://padlet.com/krollin4/wyamly4qms6w/wish/473671253 As population grew so did humans in terms of where they lived. It is no different than it is today, one place is filled with communities you have to build further out from the center of everything. As you can imagine when this happens food and resources must travel further and depending on how far out you are things can spoil. This is why during the third revolution additives were created and put into food so that they last longer. If these additives weren't used, more likely than not we would be eating spoiled food. ]]> 2020-03-24 22:43:28 UTC https://padlet.com/krollin4/wyamly4qms6w/wish/473671253 krollin4 https://padlet.com/krollin4/wyamly4qms6w/wish/511877889 There is a long list of great chemicals used that derived from a plant. I can't pick just one that is most influential. One that I feel is at the top of the list of helpfulness is Dogoxin. It is a Heart Medication used for heart failure and cardiac arrhythmia's. It came from the foxglove plant. Seeing that it has been used to treat heart problems which is a leading cause of death in America it comes in at the top of the list for most influential/useful. ]]> 2020-04-17 00:56:18 UTC https://padlet.com/krollin4/wyamly4qms6w/wish/511877889 krollin4 https://padlet.com/krollin4/wyamly4qms6w/wish/530560700 I chose this photo because it is said that if these key things go unchecked the worlds population may be malnourished. So much money is put into agriculture but only a small percentage of it is food. Most of the costs go to environmental, health, and economic costs. This being left unchecked could lead to inefficient land use and wide spread environmental harm. The prices will continue to increase while the quality will decrease. ]]> 2020-04-26 01:35:58 UTC https://padlet.com/krollin4/wyamly4qms6w/wish/530560700
