Shop layout project
The document outlines requirements and considerations for designing a flower shop layout, including a work area with cooler and work stations, an area to receive and condition flowers, storage, and an office. The showroom needs a display cooler, shelving, a sales counter, and consultation area. When designing the work area, efficiency through work triangles and a training video should be considered. The service area must make merchandise visible and have good traffic flow. Alternatively, the layout can be designed using CAD home design software on a computer.
Asymmetrical triangle designs
The document describes different asymmetrical triangle flower arrangements including the L-shape right triangle and scalene triangle. The right triangle arrangement involves securing foam in a container above the rim and establishing the framework by marking the height and width, then softening the upright edge and concealing the foam before adding a focal point and filler flowers. The scalene triangle is similar but must be elevated with the lower side below level or have the upper side extend beyond center with the lower side level.
Human impact on wildlife habitat
Human activities like construction, agriculture, mining and development have significantly reduced wildlife habitats by fragmenting large tracts of land into small, isolated pieces. This fragmentation creates population problems for wildlife by preventing migration and reducing genetic diversity. Wetlands, forests and farmland - which can provide excellent habitat if managed properly - have also been degraded or destroyed. However, certain habitat alterations like leaving field corners unplowed can benefit wildlife by providing food and cover. Overall, human encroachment has placed great pressure on wildlife populations by destroying and fragmenting the lands they depend upon.
History of conservation
The document summarizes the history of wildlife conservation in the United States from the 1600s to present day. It outlines key events like the establishment of Yellowstone National Park in 1872 as the first national park, and the passage of laws like the Lacey Act of 1900, Migratory Bird Acts of the 1920s-30s, and Endangered Species Act of 1973 to regulate wildlife protection. It also profiles important historical figures in the conservation movement such as Theodore Roosevelt, John Muir, Aldo Leopold, and Jay Darling.
Forest succession
1. Forest succession is the gradual replacement of one community of plants by another, usually driven by differences in shade tolerance. Pioneer species that colonize first are shade-intolerant, while climax species that eventually remain are most shade tolerant.
2. In an eastern deciduous forest, pioneer species like black locust and loblolly pine establish first following clearing before being replaced by oak trees with intermediate tolerance and later more tolerant maple and beech.
3. Forest succession can be influenced by disturbances like clearing or fire that allow pioneers to grow, while lack of disturbance allows climax species suited to the location to persist indefinitely.
Asters
The document discusses various types of flowers that are commonly used in floral arrangements, including mums, daisies, sunflowers, goldenrod, asters, and gerberas. It provides details on their availability, colors, characteristics, longevity, and pricing to allow florists to effectively incorporate them into their designs. The flowers vary in size from small filler flowers to large mass flowers and have properties like air-drying well or having long-lasting vase life that make them suitable for different floral applications.
Plant physiology
The three main processes in plant physiology are photosynthesis, respiration, and transpiration. Photosynthesis allows plants to produce their own food (carbohydrates) from carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight using chlorophyll in their leaves. Respiration breaks down carbohydrates to release energy, which is used for growth and tissue building. Transpiration is the process by which plants lose water, primarily through their leaves, which serves purposes like mineral transport and cooling the plant.
