A-Mung the Beans Introduction Did you know that caffeine can affect the way organisms grow? Caffeine is a bitter alkaloid found in coffee and tea that is responsible for their stimulating effects. This substance can cause the way people act and feel or the way any organisms grow. In this experiment I will test the effect of caffeine on mung bean plants which can help people realize how caffeine can affect any organism including the human body. I think this experiment will be a great eye opener for many people.
Does Human Activity Influence Global Climate Change? Global climate change is the gradual increase in the overall temperature of the atmosphere of the Earth. It is caused by carbon dioxide, chlorofluorocarbons, and other pollutants. The biggest contributor to global climate change are greenhouse gases (gases that trap heat in the atmosphere) such as carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide. An unnaturally large amount of these “greenhouse gases” are released by human activities like burning fossil fuels, deforestation, and mining.
8. Then average the height of each cup. V. Data Chart: Cup Number Number of Seeds Number of Sprouts Average Height 1 1 1 24.70 cm 2 2 2 27.25 cm 3 4 4 27.50 cm 4 8 8 25.23 cm Graph: VI. Analysis From the data collected throughout conducting the Mung Beans Experiment, I can assume that mung beans grow better in areas more populated with other mung beans. The cup with only one mung bean seed in it produced the shortest plant of the four cups.
There are different ways it can end up in the ocean, for example, through rain fall or even rivers. When carbon dioxide enters water is it then referred to as carbonic acid. Being a weak acid does not seem very alarming compared to the very wide and very deep world ocean. However, humans’ impact on the Earth has increased the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere which means there is an increase of carbonic acid in the ocean as well. Humans pump carbon dioxide into the atmosphere burn everyday by burning using excessive energy, fossil flue and even by simply breathing we are releasing more and more carbon dioxide.
We have removed a lot of plants to make more factories. This hurts our environment and the carbon cycle. Wright, & Boorse (2014) wrote, “By burning fossil fuels, we have increased atmospheric carbon dioxide by 35% over preindustrial levels.” Carbon dioxide is good because it keeps the world warm, without the warmness, the world would be cold, but too much carbon dioxide is what is causing global warming. The Phosphorus cycle
Introduction Acid rain refers to a phenomenon in which "[precipitation] from the atmosphere [contains] higher than normal amounts of nitric and sulfuric acids". The precipitation that results in acid rain comes from the pollution emitted by human activities, such as factories, electrical power plants and automobiles. Two main pollutants are sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2), which reacts with substances in the atmosphere, such as water and oxygen, to form acid rain. While rain water has a pH of 5.6, acid rain has a pH of 5 or less, which is acidic enough to harm plant life. Due to the reactivity of acid rain, the cell processes of plants are disrupted, and the cells die or become unable to function properly.
When a human use oil in his/her car, van, or truck, they have a great bid of impact on carbon, because when oil is being burned carbon is released into the atmosphere at a very fast rate, than it is removed. The carbon cycle can be affected when carbon dioxide either when carbon is released into the atmosphere or removed from it. Using natural gas is another way human impact on carbon, for the simple reason, we have to use gas to cook food in our homes and for transportation in our vehicles. Human also has an impact on phosphorus by moving it around and it become runoffs. What I mean by that is like in agriculture, phosphates are from a large amount of fertilizer that are being sprayed by farmer workers, in which they have all these different types of chemicals cause problems to the earth.
Effects of acid rain on leafs Abstract: Because of the over pollution in the world many environment around the world have been damaged and destroyed by acid rain. Acid rain is the precipitation that has high levels of acid forming chemicals, coming from multiple chemicals being released in the atmosphere that combines with the water vapor in the atmosphere. The importance of this lab is to show the effect of acid rain has on a plant showing how it damages the plant over a period of 20 days. This experiment is meant to show how damaging acid rain is to the environment and why we should be concerned about this issue. Introduction: The reasons for this study it to show the effect of acid rain on plants more specifically sunflower, radish, and clovers.
Draft Essay You can make ethanol from plant sugars like cellulose and starch. The ethanol production process takes polysaccharides, or complex sugars, from the plant, breaks them into single sugars and converts them into ethanol. Starch and cellulose are large carbohydrate molecules. Starch is an odourless, tasteless white substance which is found in plant tissue and obtained from cereals and potatoes. It is a polysaccharide that functions as a carbohydrate store and is an important part of the human diet used as an energy source.
Usually is lower in almond milk. In carbohydrates is a big difference, Soy milk has about 24g and almond milk only 16g. At this point almond milk has the advantage. Now for vitamins is another story. Soy milk is richer in female friendly B vitamins, and has 10% of your folate RDA.
