Plant Physiology

Plants are capable of absorbing substances. Plants require water in order to grow and thrive, just as humans do in order to feel and function at their best. Plants take up water from their surroundings, particularly the soil in which they are rooted, and use it to grow. They achieve this through the use of […]

A method of forming a cell is to connect two electrodes of the same metal while they are submerged in electrolytes that contain different substances or the same substance in different concentrations. 5 Differences in salt concentration along a pipeline can cause one section of the pipeline to become anodic in comparison to another section

Osteoporosis  Osteoporosis can be described as a condition where the bones become weaker due to a reduction in bone mass or due to the loss of bone tissue. This makes the patient more vulnerable to fractures thus causing fragility fractures. Osteoporosis: Signs and Symptoms Osteoporosis patients initially don’t exhibit any visible symptoms. But, as the disease

When two solutions are isotonic, their osmotic potentials are equivalent and there is no net movement of water molecules. When different, hypotonic (dilute solution, fewer solutes more water) solutions have higher osmotic potential (less negative), whereas hypertonic (concentrated solution, more solutes less water) solutions have lower osmotic potential (more negative). Water molecules will flow from

The basic process of a cell of how things move into or out of the cell through the cell membrane is called cell transport and osmosis is a type of passive transport i.e., transport without the use of energy.   Osmosis definition: “It is the random net flow of solvent molecules over a semipermeable barrier from

Osmosis is defined as the spontaneous net movement or diffusion of solvent molecules through a selectively permeable membrane from a region of high water potential (region of lower solute concentration) to a region of low water potential (region of higher solute concentration), in a direction that tends to equalise the solute concentrations on the two

Hydroponics is soilless gardening. Hydroponics means “working water” in Latin. Without soil, water provides nutrients, hydration, and oxygen to plants. Watermelons, jalapenos, and orchids all thrive in hydroponics. Hydroponic gardens create gorgeous fruits and flowers in half the time it takes regular agriculture. While the technique may sound new, hydroponics dates back to the legendary

Hydroponics refers to the art of gardening in the absence of soil. Hydroponics refers to a Latin word meaning “working water.” In the absence of soil, water helps in providing all the essential nutrients, hydration, and oxygen to plant life. From watermelons to jalapeños to orchids, plants grow and develop under the careful treatment of

Due to the successional series’ transition from hydric to mesic conditions, medium water conditions are produced, which are neither too dry (xeric) nor too wet (xeric) (hydric). The establishment of a land community is not always the result of this type of succession in the landscape. Allowing for a huge and deep water body as

The stem is a long structural plant part that consists of leaves and flowers. The stem is an ascending part of the axis in the plants, which develops from the plumule and epicotyl of the germination seed embryo. It is an important anatomical part of the plant as it supports the plants and is crucial
