growing here. The plant is an aquatic plant species that floats on the ponds, lakes and marshes with almost no root system. This animal eating plant feeds off of aquatic invertebrates, such as mosquito larvae, protozoans and tiny crustaceans. That is not the only thing that has been found in the plants traps though. Small tadpoles and newly hatched fish have also been found to fall prey to this carnivorous plant. The Small Bladderwort is Missouri’s only carnivorous plant. A plant eating animals is

devotion and leisure. It takes patience to grow a garden, frustrations and hardships are also involved in the process. Firstly the seed is planted.

industry. This industry, TFI are facing a few difficulties in operational and human resource management. Which later on will be further discussed and elaborated. One obstacle the company’s facing is balancing the plant’s production load, due to the plant producing different feeds which takes time and to set up and change over feeds for different animal and variants. Another issue is the shortage supply of quality raw materials and reliability of the adequate quality of raw materials. Orders of raw

little plants that grow. The plants in the tundra are only about four inches high, many being perennials. The plants consist of grasses, sedges, mosses, little flowering plants, and tiny dwarf willow bushes. They grow in dense round cushions or mats that hug the ground. Hugging the ground helps protect them from the cold and drying winds. In the rocky area, lichens grow on the rocks. Lichens are early land plants and are between an alga and a fungus. They have no roots. Tundra plants grow rapidly

fluctuation, you will see fluctuation in the organisms that consume it. For example, if a hare’s population, for whatever reason, was to decrease, you would also see a decrease in population for the Brown Bear, Arctic Fox, and Polar Bear. The variation of plant and animal life in the tundra is important in order to sustain life as well as a means to control the population of each organism. Biodiversity Biodiversity is the variety of all living things. It is made up of the following: Genetic Diversity

LESSON 1 Lesson 1: Step 1 | Plant A | Plant B | Prediction: starting population | Both plants’ populations will start at equivalent numbers. | Prediction: ending population | Both plant’s will reach equilibrium at the same time, unless one is dominant. Then the dominant plant’s ending population will optimize, while the other plant will die out. | | Starting population | 6,000 | 3,500 | Ending population | 10,000 | 0 | Lesson 1:Step 2 | Plant A | Plant B | Herbivore A | Prediction:

is that they assist with logging forests, carry heavy material, and assist as transportation. They have the ability to walk in areas where machines are unable to go, their vital role in an ecosystem is they modify the habitat that affects all other plants and animals. They provide water for other animals by digging water holes in the dry seasons (they can easily locate water underground). They make paths in the forest by pushing brush and pulling down trees and also disperse seeds of fruits by depositing

ripening are very unique to plants. They represent an important component of human and animal’s diets. Analyses of fruit –ripening mutants and ripening –related gene expression suggest higher levels of a development that remains to be defined. A fruit not only protects the seeds inside it, but also may aid in dispersing those seeds away from the parent plant. The dispersal of seeds is important because it reduces competition for sunlight, soil, and water between the parent plants. The role of sunlight
