Houseplants

Yes, house plants can improve air quality by absorbing carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen through photosynthesis. Some plants can also help remove toxins such as formaldehyde and benzene from the air, promoting a healthier indoor environment. However, the impact of house plants on air quality is relatively small compared to proper ventilation and air filtration systems.

Watering a houseplant with salt water can be harmful as the salt can accumulate in the soil, leading to dehydration and damage to the plant roots. This can result in yellowing leaves, stunted growth, and ultimately the death of the plant if not corrected. It's important to use fresh, clean water when watering houseplants to maintain their health.

It's recommended to add about 1-2 teaspoons of sugar per gallon of water for houseplants. However, using sugar in water is not a typical or recommended practice for watering plants as it can lead to issues like root rot and attracting pests. It's best to stick to plain water for watering houseplants.

Penicillin is actually derived from the Penicillium mold, specifically the species Penicillium chrysogenum. It was the first antibiotic discovered and revolutionized the treatment of bacterial infections.

Flowers absorb color dye through their stems by a process called transpiration. The flowers draw up the colored water through their vascular system, allowing the dye to travel to the petals and change their color. This is often used in experiments and demonstrations to show how plants transport water.

If you mean which flowers are edible, then to here are a few: marigolds, dandelions, phalaenopsis orchids, any and all squash (including zucchini), and many, many others.

If you mean what kinds of food comes is produced by flowers, then the answer is all fruit... basically anything that has (or originally did) have seeds. The purpose of fruit is to carry seeds in order to allow and help ensure reproduction. Fruit is the result of a flowering plant's reproductive cycle.

Weed Killers that you buy from department stores are chemicals which you use to kill pesky weeds in your garden. However, soetimes you may just pop to the kitchen and get some natural weed killers, such as: Boiling water, vinegar, bleach, salt, or even alcohol! Basically, weed killers (aka herbicide) are substances used to kill weeds that harm your other desired plants.

Yes, alcohol can be used to kill mealy bugs on houseplants. Rubbing alcohol can be diluted with water and sprayed directly onto the bugs to kill them. However, it's important to test a small area of the plant first to ensure it won't cause damage.

Examples of plants that can grow underwater include eelgrass, sea grass, water lilies, hornwort, and anacharis. These plants have adaptations that allow them to thrive in aquatic environments, such as the ability to absorb nutrients through their leaves and stems. They play important roles in aquatic ecosystems by providing habitats for aquatic animals and helping to oxygenate the water.

Chemiosmosis does not physically bring in these materials. This ATP can be used to power pumps used to bring cations and anions in through active diffusion and is also used for the calvin cycle which creates glucose.

The main function of a flower is to facilitate reproduction in plants. Flowers contain reproductive structures such as stamens (male parts) and pistils (female parts) that are involved in the process of pollination and fertilization, leading to the production of seeds and fruit.

Non-flowering plant does not have a seed stage because their seed is naked which means that the seed is not bounded in fruit. They donâ??t have the presence of male and female parts in which flowering plant bears.

Most house plants should not be affected by foggers, although plants such as African violets are notoriously sensitive. After using a fogger, always wipe the leaves of your plant with a damp or wet cloth to remove chemical residue. Ideally, protect the plant with something as simple as a raincoat or light plastic sheet.

Perhaps if one adult plant produced seeds which then sprouted w/out having a chance to be carried away by outside forces. This is where the expression "The apple never falls far from the tree" was started because seeds often grow near their parent plants.


Some plants send up new plants from their roots, and those plants send up more, and so on.
That's why those types need to be dug up and separated every few years.

For the cotton balls take a bristle brush with a flat top, dip it in very little concentrated white color, rub of excess paint into a paper towel, and tap it with a vertical motion onto the paper, at the outlines work very dry, almost transperant.

Water uptake through the roots creates a positive pressure in the xylem, known as root pressure, which can push water upwards. Additionally, transpiration, the loss of water vapor through the leaves, generates a negative pressure, known as tension, in the xylem, which pulls water up from the roots through a process called cohesion and adhesion.

Offshoots or plantlets are new plants that grow off a runner or stem of the parent plant. These offshoots can eventually develop into individual plants.

Most houseplants require bright, indirect light to thrive. However, the specific light requirement can vary depending on the plant species. It's best to research the light needs of your specific houseplant to ensure it receives the appropriate amount of light for healthy growth.

Water and minerals flow up through the roots of plants into the stem and leaves through a process known as transpiration. This process involves water being absorbed by the roots and then transported upward through the xylem, driven by evaporation and capillary action. Minerals are absorbed along with the water to support the plant's growth and metabolism.

Examples of simple plants include mosses, liverworts, hornworts, and algae. These plants lack true roots, stems, and leaves, and typically have a simpler structure compared to higher plant forms like flowering plants. Simple plants are often found in moist environments and play important roles in ecosystems.

Yes, pieces of a plant can potentially grow into new plants through a process called vegetative propagation. This involves taking a cutting or a part of the plant with growth nodes, placing it in suitable conditions like soil or water, and allowing it to produce roots and grow into a new plant through mitosis.

When a plant is put under a jar in bright sunlight, the temperature inside the jar increases due to the greenhouse effect. This can lead to faster evaporation of water from the plant, potentially causing dehydration. Additionally, the lack of air circulation inside the jar may hinder the plant's ability to exchange gases like carbon dioxide and oxygen, affecting its photosynthesis process.

Some examples of plants that can reproduce from plant parts include spider plants, snake plants, and jade plants. These plants can produce new plants from leaf cuttings or division of their roots or tubers.

Water, because it is found in nature. Also, because it has no artificial flavoring.

HERE IS ANOTHER ANSWER FROM ANOTHER PERSON.

Put in a little bit of sugar with your water and your plant will last longer, and its the same thing with Gatorade BUT ONLY A LITTLE BIT! But orange juice is also good for the plant too. orange juice has either Vitamin C or Vitamin D. But first water it with water until it starts growing then switch from water to orange juice.
