Corn is considered a vegetable because it is the edible seed of the grass plant, not a mature ovary like most fruits. In botanical terms, fruits develop from the fertilized ovary of a flower, whereas vegetables encompass other plant parts such as roots, stems, and leaves. So, although corn is sweet and often used as a vegetable in culinary contexts, it is classified as a grain and therefore a vegetable rather than a fruit.

Corn is a vascular plant. Everything is vascular, except liverworts and mosses.

Bt corn is made by introducing vector plasmids into agrobacterium by electroporation. Electroporation is the creation of transporent pores in the membrane of a cell, through the application of a high-voltage electrical pulse.

To restart a Massangeana or corn plant with few leaves at the top and a tall stem, you can prune the stem back to encourage new growth from the base. Make a clean cut just above a node (where the leaves emerge) using sharp, clean scissors. Place the plant in a bright room away from direct sunlight and keep the soil moist but not waterlogged to promote new growth.

Popcorn pops because the corn kernels contain water - which turns into steam when heated. Because corn kernels are tightly sealed, the steam can't get through and it creates pressure inside them, which eventually makes them pop.

The aims of a compass survey are to determine the magnetic bearing of a line and to set out accurate directions on the field. Its objectives include establishing a reference direction, determining the magnetic declination, and providing a basis for orienting maps and conducting navigation activities.
