Edwin's Seed Story

Edwin's Answers
  •  What have you learned?
           Edwin: I have learned to how to maintain a plant healthy for a long period of time.
  • What surprised or amazed you?
           Edwin: How fast my plant grew
  • What made you laugh?
           Edwin: Nothing much
  • What made you pause or think deeper? 
            Edwin: How the seed only needed some (not a lot) sunlight to grow when it was in the cabinet at first 

       For my interview i chose to interview Edwin Angeles. He said that he learned a lot from this lab. What he told me that he learned was how to maintain a plant healthy for a long period of time. What he said surprised him was how fast the plant grew. He said that nothing really made him laugh because it wasn't funny to him. In the end I asked him what made him think deeper. He said that how the seed only needed very little sunlight when to grow when it was in the cabinet in the beginning when we first started the lab.

Post #6 The Story Of The Seed

1) So when my plant uses Photosynthesis it makes energy for it self to survive. Photosynthesis begins when the plant receives water, sunlight, and carbon dioxide. After that it dos the process and releases oxygen because it doesn't use a lot of it and it also produces glucose or sometimes food like fruit because it uses it as energy. Then when the plant breathes out oxygen all the energy it made is used. It is used for plant growth, flower for\ation and fruit production. Since the energy is used for plant growth that means it has the energy of its cells to begin to multiply by the process of mitosis. The beginning of mitosis is interphase, when the cell is preparing itself to divide. Then comes prophase when the chromosomes of the cell are now visable. Then metaphase comes and the chromosomes align in the middle for the fibers to attach to them. Then anaphase comes and the spindle fibers begin to split the chromosomes in half. Then telophase and two nucleus have formed and the cell...

  How does your Garden Grow? Blog Post #6  1) Our plant is small but it is growing and that is what we care about. When my plant uses the process known as photosynthesis my plant makes its own energy so it can survive. This process begins when the plant recieves  nutrients to survive like water, sunlight, and carbon dioxide. When the plant gives out oxygen from the carbon dioxide it takes in the plant uses the energy. Since the energy the plant uses is for plant growth the cells then can start the process mitosis. The first step in mitosis is interphase when the cell is preparing to divide then comes prophase which is when the chromosomes of the cell are visible. Then metaphase comes and the chromosomes go into the middle to the fiber and attaches them together. Another step is anaphase and that is when the chromosomes divide. And the last step in the mitosis process is telophase. And then cytokinesis is when the cellis now 2 cells in which it is now 2 plant cells. ...

The Story of the Seed

Blog #3 1) The changes I noticed this week was that the plant did grow a little, but it looked pretty dry like it needed some water and I also noticed that one of the stems with a leave on it had fallen and was really dry. Today  2) Their roles in the water cycle is transpiration of plants which makes the water go up in the sky for condensation. After seeing my plant today I guess it just did this process because of how dry it looked when I went to go see it.(View picture above) 3) Their roles in the carbon cycle is photosynthesis and plant respiration which lets carbon into the air. The plants are always doing plant respiration and photosynthesis so I don't think it had any affect on its physical appearance. 4) The role of my plant in the nitrogen cycle is plant consumption and organic residues which means they ate nitrogen and threw it out as organic matter. I think the fallen stem that fell off the plant is part of the organic matter and the plant will use it ...
