How Does Your Garden Grow?

       After we came back from a rainy week, our plants had shown drastic changes. Whether it was because we haven't actually checked on them due to the winter break, the plants are improving in growth and are spreading bigger in the garden bed. Our cauliflower plant, on the other hand, has shown very little growth over the course of months since Mr. Bursch has planted them. Everyone else's plants, though, have show a varies of changes. We have experienced cold weather as well as some rain. This is good for the plants so they could get some water, which makes our jobs quite easier. Now, this week has shown a lot of sun which our plants seem to enjoy. This helps play a roll in photosynthesis for our cauliflower and other students' plants in the classroom. 

       In cell division in plants, a plate forms within the two nuclei. In eukaryote, there are two different types of cell division. One example would be a vegetative division. In a vegetative division, the two daughter cells are identical to the parent cell in mitosis. In a reproductive cell division, the number of chromosomes in the daughter cells is cut down to half to produce haploid gametes from meiosis. The plants are getting bigger in biomass by taking more space into the garden bed. Since some plants are growing flowers and other stuff on them, it makes their plant bigger and takes more space rather than the dying and eaten plants. In the mitotic process, the cell goes under cytokinesis, which is after the anaphase step. 

       As said earlier, the sun and rain weather that has been going on has really been benefiting our plants lately. Our plants go through a phase which infludes photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is when green plants use sunlight to synthesis foods from carbon dioxide and water. Our plants go through photosynthesis because we don’t go around everyday feeding it some gourmet meal, this is how they live their life. Other organisms use photosynthesis as well. Cellular respiration is the process of breaking sugar into forms that the cell could use as an energy. This happens to everything with a life form. Cellular respiration takes in food and uses it to create a chemical that the cell uses for energy.
