Wilson English 101 (Extra Credit) How to Grow an Avocado Tree: Have you ever eaten an avocado and wished you could do something with the enormous seed? Well, you can; with a little luck and a little skill, you can grow an attractive house plant from it. Caring for an avocado is not complicated, provided you follow a few simple rules. Wash the seed in tepid water, removing all the pulp. Suspend the seed with the broad end pointing down in a water-filled glass or jar by driving three toothpicks into the sides for support.
Water the seeds daily until the grass is at least 1.5 inches tall. Take 20 seeds from a rapid growing weed plant and evenly plant 10 in each box. Water the grass regularly until weeds start to grow throughout the grass. Follow directions for each weed killer and apply is to the boxes of grass/weeds. Make sure to use the same amount of weed killer in each box.
Materials & Methods Materials: · Scale · 4 6” Dialysis Tubing · 4 Transfer Pipets · Sugar · Scissors · Rubber Bands · 4 Same-Sized Coffee Cups · 250ml Graduated Cylinder · Tape Measure · Sauce Pan · 3 600ml Containers · Plastic Covering · Spoon Methods: 1.) Place 4 6” pieces of dialysis tubing into coffee cups full of tap with and leave them for two hours prior to beginning the experiment. 2.) As you wait, prepare your three sugar solutions. For the first solution, pour 5 grams of sugar into 250ml graduated cylinder and add water up to the 250ml mark.
Plant Growth Investigation The scientific method is a way to ask and answer scientific questions by making observations and doing experiments. The question I was attempting to answer was; what are the effects of different types of water on the growth of grass? My hypothesis was if we water the grass seeds with bottled, tap, and salt water, then the seeds getting the bottled water will grow the best and be the tallest at the end of the experiment because the bottled water doesn’t have the toxins that the salt and tap water will have. We needed a lot of materials to conduct our experiment they were; • 6 Seven ounce cups • Soil • Seeds (20 per cup) • The 3 types of water (Salt, Bottled, Tap) • Graduated Cylinder • Ruler • Pencils • Sharpie • Our chart/packet Our procedure was to first gather all of the materials we needed. We first labeled each cup with what type of water we were going to use.
Cook for 4 more minutes, then drain liquid from pot and pour contents over a clean, unused large garbage bag or newspapers. Serve with melted butter and enjoy!! Let the water boil in a pot that is 3/4 full with two seasoning packets and 2-4 cut up lemons. Add 2 bottles of Newman’s
First the bags of masa (flour) consist in 4 pounds (Such as the bag in the picture). Use only half the masa for your tamales. (2 pounds), and place it in a bowl. 2. In the bowl, add 3 table spoons of paprika (this is optional), 3 tablespoons of salt, 3 tablespoons of garlic powder,, 1 table spoon of cumin seeds.
The two petri dish that contained E. coli and S. Marscensen were placed upside down and allowed the growth of the bacteria to interact with the antibiotics for a week. Results: The bacteria in the petri dish were left to grow for a week and in this process
Smash the strawberry with your fist for 2 minutes. 3. And 10 ml extraction buffer to the bag and carefully press out all of the air and seal the bag. 4. Mush again for one minute.
Form a hypothesis for why each affects seed germination. 3. To germinate the beans, place one folded paper towel, moistened but not soaking wet, into the 5 x 8in bag. Place 10 beans in a horizontal line on the paper towel (between the paper towel and bag). 4.
Take 2-3 large leaves (or the equivalent with smaller leaves), tear them into tiny pieces, and place them into small jars with lids. 2. Add enough alcohol to just cover the leaves. 3. Loosely cover the jars and set them into a shallow pan containing an inch or so of hot tap water.
