This type of reproduction is common among some single-cell organisms, for example, amoeba. Many plants also reproduce asexually. + Carbon dioxide: Organic compounds :: Biochemistry :: Greenhouse gases :: Oxides * It is a gas at room temperature. It is made of one carbon and two oxygen atoms. People and animals release carbon dioxide when they breathe out. Plants use carbon dioxide to make food. This process is called photosynthesis. The properties of carbon dioxide were studied by the Scottish scientist Joseph Black in the 1750s. + Cellular automaton, Biology: Computer science :: Mathematics * Plants regulate their intake and loss of gases via a cellular automaton mechanism. Each stoma on the leaf acts as a cell. + Cotyledon: Botany * Plants use cotyledons to make sugars through photosynthesis. They use the sugars to keep true leaves growing. After a while, the cotyledons often die because the plant does not need them anymore. + Cultigen, Definition of cultigen * Some plants are used in gardens or parks. They are the same that those that occur in nature. + Defence against herbivory: Botany :: Co-evolution * Plants use several strategies to defend against damage caused by herbivores. Many plants produce chemicals which change the behaviour, growth, or survival of herbivores. These chemical defences can act as repellents or toxins to herbivores, or reduce plant digestibility. Some plants encourage the presence of natural enemies of herbivores, which in turn protect the plant. * Plants can and do react to damage. Boyd, Jade 2012 - predators: Co-evolution :: Ecology * Not surprisingly, then, animals have developed a wide range of defences against predation. Oxford University Press. Many plants have some defence against herbivores + Drink: * A 'drink' is a liquid that you can take into your body, by using your mouth. Typical drinks for humans include water, tea, milk, coffee, juice, soft drinks and alcoholic drinks. All drinks are mainly water. All life needs water to live. Plants take in water through their roots, which are found underground. Most animals get water by drinking. To 'drink' means to take a drink into your body. + Eating: Food and drink * Eating' is taking in food to get energy and nutrients. People and animals need to 'eat' because they cannot make their own food inside their bodies like plants. All plants' energy comes from the sun. Plants take the sun's energy, and they are eaten by other animals as food. The animals then eat each other for the energy. + Evergreen * An 'evergreen plant' is a plant that keeps its leaves over the winter. Most plants lose their leaves in autumn. + Frugivore, Plant and frugivore relationship: Animals * The fruit is part of a plant's sexual reproduction cycle. Plants spend a lot of energy and nutrients in creating fruit. Fruit is produced to attract animals into eating the fruit. The animal digests the pulp but not the seeds, ensuring the plant's genes are spread wherever the animal goes. Seeds can also be germinated by falling near the mother plant. + Gene duplication, Evolutionary importance * Major genome duplication events are not uncommon. It is believed that the entire yeast genome underwent duplication about 100 million years ago. Plants are the most prolific genome duplicators. + Guard cell: Plant anatomy :: Cells * Guard cell's are types of cells that surrounds stomates in plants. Plants lose water through stomates. Guard cells are able to open and close the stomates to save water. Guard cells are activated by sunlight. When water follows, the cells get hard and they push open. At night, guard cells lose water and close again. + Habitat, Plant habitats: Ecosystems * Just as animals adapt to the places they live, so do plants. Plants are adapted to a wide variety of habitats. As a result, each plant has certain characteristics. Some are adapted to living on land while others live in water. Plants that grow on land usually have stiff stems to hold them upright, while water plants tend to have less rigid stems because the water supports them. + Inbreeding, Discussion: Classical genetics * Many plant species self-fertilise in the wild, but the great majority have occasional outcrossing. This provides them with sufficient variety for their survival. + List of plants by common name * Most plants have several country names, and country names often refer to several distinct plants. This list includes garden plants as well as weeds - professional wrestling terms, P: Sports lists * Plants are a good tool for a heel wrestler to gain heat from the crowd. Alternatively, to get over, some heels may do such actions as grab a fan's hat and throw it away + Mixed cropping: Agriculture * Mixed cropping is not the same as crop rotation. In crop rotation you plant different crops in the same field in different years. Some plants add nitrogen to the soil, some take it out. If you would plant the same crop year after year, you wear out your soil. + Nectar: Flowers :: Fruits * It is very sweet because it has a lot of sugar in it. Plants make nectar to attract pollinating animals. It is made in glands called nectaries. The Nectaries are usually at the bottom of the perianth. This means the animal trying to get the nectar have to touch the parts of the plant that are used for reproduction. By doing this, the animal getting the nectar helps the plants reproduce. Some plants make nectar outside the flower. * Plants make nectar to attract pollinating animals. It is made in glands called nectaries. The Nectaries are usually at the bottom of the perianth. This means the animal trying to get the nectar have to touch the parts of the plant that are used for reproduction. By doing this, the animal getting the nectar helps the plants reproduce. Some plants make nectar outside the flower. These plants do it to attract predatory insects. These insects will eat both the nectar and any plant-eating insects found near the plant. + Oddanchatram: Cities in Tamil Nadu * It is known as the vegetable city of Tamil Nadu. Plants grown here are maize, tomato, chilli, cauliflower, beans and other vegetables. The vegetables are exported to nearby states. Also it is famous for its vegetable and curd market, which can sell up to 5,000 tons of produce a day. + Perennial: Types of plants * A 'perennial' is a plant that bears leaves and perhaps flowers every year. Some plants only bear leaves and flowers once, then they die. Such plants are called 'annual'. Other plants live for two years. They are called 'biennial'. + Photocatalysis, Research and Uses: Chemistry * An example of organometallic research is mimicking photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process that plants use to make sugar for food. Plants use only carbon dioxide gas from the air, water and sunlight. Plants actually have an organometallic molecule containing Mn that helps them perform this reaction. Scientists hope to make an organometallic molecule that can make organic products like fuels using only carbon dioxide, water and light. If this process could be harnessed it could dramatically reduce pollution, because the carbon you make your fuel with is the carbon dioxide from the air. + Phytoremediation: Conservation :: Sustainable technologies :: Environmental technology * A type of this is 'phytomining', which is a method of extraction. Some plants absorb copper compounds through their roots. They concentrate these compounds as a result of this. The plants can be burned to produce an ash that contains the copper compounds. + Plant, Roots * The roots of plants perform two main functions. First, they anchor the plant to the ground. Second, they absorb water and various nutrients dissolved in water from the soil. Plants use the water to make food. The water also provides the plant with support. Plants that lack water become very limp and their stems cannot support their leaves. Plants which specialise in desert areas are called xerophytes or phreatophytes, depending on the type of root growth. * Plants are grouped into floras based on region, period, special environment, or climate. Regions can be geographically distinct habitats like mountain vs. flatland. Floras can mean plant life of an historic era as in 'fossil flora'. * There are many different kinds of seeds. Some plants make a lot of seeds, some make only a few. Seeds are often hard and very small, but some are larger. The coconut is as big as a child's head, but it contains more than just a seed. When the seed is ready to develop, it needs water, air and warmth 'but not sunlight' to become a seedling. + Pollen: Flowers :: Plant anatomy * The pollen grains are actually haploid male gametophytes. This is to do with alternation of generations. All plants go through a cycle with a haploid gametophyte alternating with a diploid sporophyte. In the case of flowering plants the gametophyte stage is very small and brief. + Rainforest, Plants and animals * There are thousands of different kinds of orchids in the rainforest. Some air plants store water in pools in and around their roots. These pools can become homes for frogs and salamanders. Frogs usually need to lay their eggs in ponds, but some rainforest tree frogs lay their eggs in the pools in air plants. That way, the frogs never have to go down to the ground. Some plants are made for medicine for humans. + Respiration: Metabolism :: Cellular respiration + South Africa, Geography, Plants and wildlife: English-speaking countries * The most common biome in South Africa is the grassland, mostly on the Highveld. This is where grasses, low shrubs, and acacia trees, mostly camel-thorn and whitethorn are more common then plants. Plants become even more less common towards the northwest. This is because of low rainfall. There are many species of water-storing plants like aloes and euphorbias in the very hot and dry Namaqualand area. The grass and thorn savanna turns slowly into a bush savanna towards the north-east of the country, with more thick growth. + Starch: Carbohydrates :: Nutrition * Starch' is a complex carbohydrate. Pasta, potatoes, and other starchy foods are made out of carbohydrates. It is made of lots of sugars. Plants use it to keep energy. * Most plants grow in the ground, with stems above, and roots below. Water and some nutrients come from the roots. The evaporation of water from pores in the leaves pulls water through the plant. This is called transpiration. + Sun, In Astronomy: Stars :: Solar System * Almost all life on Earth depends on the light energy that comes from our Sun. Plants use solar energy as food so they can grow. This process is called photosynthesis, the green in the plant leaves is a pigment which is called chlorophyll. + Tree * Trees and shrubs take in water and carbon dioxide and give out oxygen with sunlight to form sugars. This is the opposite of what animals do in respiration. Plants also do some respiration using oxygen the way animals do. They need oxygen as well as carbon dioxide to live. + Tundra: Geography :: Biomes * The tundra ground is a barren place, often covered with rocks. Most water on the tundra is frozen within the soil. The permanent frozen soil is called permafrost. Permafrost and fierce winds prevent large trees from growing deep roots. Plants in the tundra are small and grow close to the ground. Plants called cushions grow in tight clumps in the tundra, but lichens are the dominant plants. Lichens cover the rocks. The few trees that do grow on the tundra are dwarf willows and birch. + Uluṟu-Kata Tjuṯa National Park, Ecology, Flora: National parks in Australia :: Protected areas of the Northern Territory :: Pitjantjatjara * The desert flora has adapted to the harsh conditions. The growth and reproduction of plant communities rely on irregular rainfall. Some plants are able to survive fire and some are dependent on it to reproduce. Plants are an important part of 'tjukurpa', and there are ceremonies for each of the major plant foods. Many plants are associated with ancestral beings. Collection of plant foods remains a culturally important activity, reinforcing traditional links with country and 'tjukurpa'. + Virus, Replication cycle: Viruses * This is often called viral entry. The infection of plant and fungal cells is different from that of animal cells. Plants have a rigid cell wall made of cellulose, and fungi one of chitin. The damage done to cell walls would let the virus get in. Bacteria, like plants, have strong cell walls that a virus must breach to infect the cell. + Weed * Some plants are very hard to stop once they start growing. These are called invasive weeds.

Plants do not move, but wind, animals and birds spread the plants across the landscape. + Plant, Flowering plant reproduction, Flowers and pollination: * Some flowers use the wind to carry pollen. Their dangling stamens produce lots of pollen that is light enough to be carried by the wind. Their flowers are usually small and not highly coloured. The stigmas of these flowers are feathery and hang outside the flower to catch the pollen as it falls. Science and plants'. + Pollen, Pollination: Flowers :: Plant anatomy * Animals also help move pollen between plants. Many flowers are colourful and their scent attracts some animals. These flowers also make a sweet juice called nectar. Sometimes an animal, such as a bee, sees or smells a flower. Then, it lands on the flower to get nectar. As the bee drinks the nectar, the stamens brush pollen onto its body. Then, the bee flies to another flower that has a pistil. + Quillaja saponaria, Morphology * Quillay is an evergreen tree, with grey bark.

Fruits are produced from May to August but they cannot be eaten because their seeds are poisonous - ruscifolia, Uses * It is a very toxic plant. Fruits are hallucinogens exciting the nervous system. It is recommended as an ornamental + Food group, Common food groups: Nutrition + Frugivore, Plant and frugivore relationship: Animals * The fruit is part of a plant's sexual reproduction cycle. Plants spend a lot of energy and nutrients in creating fruit. Fruit is produced to attract animals into eating the fruit. The animal digests the pulp but not the seeds, ensuring the plant's genes are spread wherever the animal goes. Seeds can also be germinated by falling near the mother plant. + Fruit, Area of agreement * Many fruits come from trees or bushes. For plants, fruits are a means of dispersal, usually by animals. When the fruit breaks apart, the seeds can go into the ground and begin to grow. They have a large amount of dietary fibre. Fruits are usually low in protein and fat content, but avocados and some nuts are exceptions to this. So are many other groups of herbivorous mammals and many birds - Botanical fruits: * Since fruits are produced from fertilised ovaries in flowers, only flowering plants produce fruits.

The buds open into blossoms and green leaves in Spring. Fruit starts to appear as Summer arrives. When the signs of the end of the age start to happen, it means Jesus will return soon. + Prunus japonica, Description: Plants of Asia :: Prunus * Every fruit has one seed. The plant usually grows from seed. + Seed dispersal
