                  Our plant has not really grown that much so I will be talking about another groups plant. The plants in the garden have shown huge amounts of growth. The  plants would have used photosynthesis by taking the sun light and water from the rain and water in the soil to make sugars to help itself grow. This would help with cellular respiration and cell division. If anything were to happen t the plant the plant would need to use the energy obtained from photosynthesis to separate cells and fix the problem. The plant would also need that energy to take part in cellular respiration. Cellular respiration is makes the nutrients that are needed for the plant to continue growing. 

story of the seed #6 blog post

1.Our plant has actually DEAD but i'll still make a blog post anyways pretending that it is till growing big and strong. Our lovely plant are constantly make their own food by photosynthesis. Carbon dioxide and water react together in the presence of light and chlorophyll to make glucose and oxygen. The glucose is converted into starch, fats and oils for storage. And what is how our plant getting bigger and bigger everyday.

2.If a signal was sent to the nucleus of one of our plant’s cells to produce more enzymes Enzymes are proteins inside the cells. They are formed by special chains of amino acids that come together in different shapes to do special jobs, like breaking down sugar and fat molecules or to make more enzymes. So in order to make more enzymes, cell would have to produce proteins to do the job with transcription and translation. So transcription are RNA Polymerase has the job of getting the codes form the DNA strand by unzip the double helix strand and then finish it by re-zip the double helix strand. Then translation which is basically translate those codes which is ribosome’s job and then put the right product to make enzymes which is tRNA job to brings those amino acids for each of the triple condons. And at the end of translation, all those amino acids that has been chosen by mRNA condons create a protein and that is it.

nick's story of the seed

Today I interviewed Nick and here are some of the questions I asked him:

Bao: What have you learned?
Nick: "I learned how to plant a plant."

Bao: What surprised or amazed you? 
Nick: "How big our plant grew. "

Bao:  made you laugh? 
Nick: "when we went out side and saw how big our plant was."

Bao: What made you pause and think a little deeper? 
Nick: "how many species of plants there are."

Bao: What questions do you have about things you observed or experienced in the garden?
Nick: "that some plants are bigger than other."

About our Project

The purpose of this project is for students ,such as our selves, to learn about the environment we live in, and how plants are able to grow in this environment. We have planted a Kale plant in the school's garden and will study it's progress as it grows though out the year. Each time we go out into the garden and record data it helps us understand how nature prospers in our garden and what factor s are affected in a good way and which factors are affected in a negative way.This lab is helping many students in this class understand how nature works in the different environment.

blog post #4

1/ Abiotic factors: temperature; the weather is very hot in some of these days.
    Biotic factors: Grass growing next to the plant; a lot of them are growing next to our plant and i think they are taking our plant's resources.

2/ As if now, our plant is in a very competitive life because there are so many grass growing next to our plant.

3/ Well, of course, the winner would be determined base on how much resources the took and some time you find it hard to answer because they might have an equal amount of population.

4/ Parasitism because the plant is killing our plant but trying to hang on so the can get the water that our plant getting feed.

5/ Our plants is an example of a secondary succession.

Biogeochemical Cycles and Our Plants

1/ My plant has been growing quite a bite, it is now 4 inches and the plant is all green and in good shape.

2/ My plant has participated in the water cycle since it helps with the transpiration part by getting water and then limited them as heat into the atmosphere.

3/ the plant role: photosynthesis and respiration.

4/ I don't think our plant has participated in any kind of nitrogen cycle.

Brief Bio for Bao Ngyuen

My name is Bao Nguyen, I am 14 years old and I had just moved here from Vietnam for about two years and so far my life has been just great since I have so many friend that Cesar about me and I’m here is to tell you about my experience with plants.

           Back in Vietnam, my family had a huge farm and that is where we would grow coffe. In every fall, it’s the time for us to collect coffe so we can sell it. Usually it just my brothers and my dad who would acctually went and collect the coffe because I was still small so I’m just often be standing around maybe climbing up the trees tolook at the sky and spented a good afternoon sleeping and people would end up go finding me. After a harsh day of collecting coffe and finding me, mom always cook a hot delicious meal full of soup and noodles. And that is the casual day for us and the people living in the same area during fall.
