Carnivorous plants obtain nutrients through trapping and digesting insects and small animals because the soil in their environments is typically low in nutrients. There are several types of carnivorous plants that employ different trapping mechanisms, including pitfall traps like pitcher plants which use a slippery leaf tube to trap prey, snap traps like the Venus flytrap which closes rapidly on triggered hairs, and flypaper traps such as sundews which use sticky mucilage to ensnare insects. Students were assigned to draw their own imaginary carnivorous plant using plant parts to trap and digest prey.

The trap is made of folded heart-shaped leaves. Smaller pointed leaves form the entrance. A long twisting stem holds the trap above the ground on a bed of flat round leaves.
Insectivorous plants
This document discusses insectivorous plants, which are carnivorous plants that trap and digest insects and other small animals. There are over 600 species across 9 types of insectivorous plants that use different trapping mechanisms like pitfall traps, adhesive traps, snap traps, and lobster pot traps to capture prey. These plants typically live in nutrient-poor bog and fen habitats where they obtain nitrogen and other nutrients from their trapped insect prey rather than from the soil. Examples of insectivorous plants and their trapping mechanisms are described.
Carnivorous plant
Plants benefit in many ways from animals; e.g.,
animals play a role as pollinators and as dispersers
of fruits
Venus fly trap
The Venus flytrap is a small carnivorous plant found in wetlands in North and South Carolina. It has modified leaves that form traps to catch insects. The traps have trigger hairs that when touched twice cause the lobes of the trap to rapidly flip from convex to concave, closing to trap prey. Venus flytraps have adaptations like dormancy in winter and different trap types through seasons to survive in their boggy environment with irregular food sources.
Insect ecological succession
- Insect ecological succession is the natural gradual change in insect species that live in a given area over time. It involves the replacement of one insect community by another through natural processes.
- There are two main types of succession: primary succession, which occurs on newly exposed substrates like lava flows, and secondary succession, which occurs when a previous community is disturbed.
- Succession progresses based on various factors like substrate conditions, composition of initial colonists, sequence of disturbances, and presence of granivores, herbivores, and predators.
Agricultural Entomology
The document defines a pest as any organism that interferes with human health, food supply, or quality of the environment. It notes that approximately 1 million insect species have been named, with 500,000 being herbivorous plant-eating insects and 3,500 of those causing problems for humans. Pests are classified based on their population levels relative to economic thresholds and whether they are occasional, key, or potential pests. The document also describes different types of insect damage and symptoms caused by biting/chewing and piercing/sucking insects.
Bioluminescence in insects
This document provides an overview of bioluminescence and summarizes several projects related to bioluminescence research. It begins with an introduction to bioluminescence and a brief history. Key points include that bioluminescence is light produced by living organisms through a chemical reaction, it has various functions like mating signals and defense, and occurs across diverse taxa. Recent projects aim to understand luciferase structure/function, evolution, and biodiversity of terrestrial bioluminescence. One project constructed a bioluminescent Bifidobacterium strain to act as a biosensor to analyze cellular metabolism under different conditions.

Life cycle of honey bee
Honey bees live in colonies with one queen, thousands of workers, and hundreds of drones. The queen's role is to lay eggs that become either workers or drones. Workers perform all tasks in the colony including feeding larvae, building comb, collecting nectar and pollen. Drones do not work and their sole function is to mate with virgin queens. The life cycle begins with the queen laying an egg, which hatches into a larva and then becomes a pupa before emerging as an adult bee. The development time varies by caste with queens developing the quickest and drones taking the longest.

Rice weevil
The rice weevil is a small beetle that infests grain products like rice and wheat. The adult is 1/8 inch long with reddish-brown or black coloring and four spots on its wings. It lays eggs in grains, and the legless white larvae feed within the grains. The full lifecycle from egg to adult can take as little as 26 days in warm conditions. Rice weevils damage grain by eating into it and reducing its quality. Control methods include inspecting for infestation, discarding heavily infected material, freezing food below 0°F for 3 days or heating to 140°F for 15 minutes to kill all life stages.
Ants
It is an informative and beautiful power point presentation on one of the most common animal Ants.This is very helpful for

Insect Leg
Insect legs are segmented and consist of 5 segments - coxa, trochanter, femur, tibia, and tarsus. Legs are modified for different habitats and behaviors, including walking, running, jumping, climbing, digging, grasping, swimming, sticking, basket-like, sucking, and food collecting. The document describes the structure and modifications of each leg type.
Rice Weevil (Sitophilus oryzae)
This document discusses the rice weevil (Sitophilus oryzae), a common pest of stored grains. It describes the rice weevil's taxonomy, life cycle, morphology, behavior, habitat, signs of infestation, and damages. The rice weevil's life cycle consists of egg, larval, pupal, and adult stages. As both larvae and adults, they feed internally on grains like rice, wheat, and corn. Their feeding causes grains to heat up and become damp. The document outlines several control methods for rice weevils, including pest-proof storage containers, fumigation, and heating or freezing infested foods.
Insect metamorphosis
This document discusses the different types of metamorphosis, insect eggs, larvae, and pupae. There are four main types of metamorphosis: ametabola (no metamorphosis), hemimetabola (incomplete metamorphosis), paurometabola (gradual metamorphosis), and holometabola (complete metamorphosis). Insect eggs can be laid singly or in groups, and come in different shapes and structures. Larvae are generally oligopod, polypod, or apodous. Pupae are either obtect, exarate, or coarctate. The document provides examples and details on the characteristics of each type.
Biocontrol ppt
Biological control utilizes natural enemies like parasitoids, predators and pathogens to regulate pest populations. There are three main techniques - conservation of natural enemies, importation of non-native enemies, and augmentation of existing populations through supplemental releases. Common biological control agents include predators like ladybugs, parasitoids such as wasps and flies, and pathogenic microorganisms including bacteria like B. thuringiensis, fungi such as Beauveria bassiana, nematodes, and viruses. Mass production of these natural enemies involves rearing them on host pests in the laboratory and field. Biological control provides a sustainable alternative to chemical pesticides by controlling pests without toxic residues or impacts on non-target species.
Insect colouration
1. Colouration in animals can serve defensive purposes like crypsis (camouflage), warning colouration, and mimicry. Crypsis makes animals difficult to see by matching their background colour. Warning colouration involves bright colours that signal unprofitability through chemicals or sting.
2. Mimicry involves one species resembling another. Batesian mimicry involves a harmless species mimicking a harmful one. Mullerian mimicry involves two harmful species sharing warning signals.
3. Colouration can also function offensively through aggressive mimicry, where predators imitate potential prey. Automimicry involves parts of an organism resembling other parts for deflection of attacks.

Chemical coordination
The document discusses the endocrine system, which consists of glands that release hormones directly into the bloodstream to regulate metabolism, growth, reproduction, and other essential body functions. The major glands include the hypothalamus, pituitary gland, thyroid gland, parathyroid glands, adrenal glands, pancreas, gonads, pineal gland, and thymus. Hormones help coordinate communication between different organs and cells to maintain homeostasis.
Nervous coordination
The nervous system allows for coordination in the body through electrochemical signaling between neurons. It consists of neurons and neuroglia. Neurons receive and transmit signals via dendrites, the cell body, and the axon. There are three types of neurons - sensory, motor, and inter. A nerve impulse is generated through changes in the neuron's membrane potential and the opening and closing of ion channels, causing the signal to propagate along the axon. At a synapse, neurotransmitters transmit the signal to the next neuron. Reflexes are automatic responses to stimuli.
Cupping therapy
Cupping therapy is an ancient healing method that involves placing cups on the skin to enhance blood flow. It works by using suction to draw the skin and deeper tissues up underneath the cups. This increases circulation and brings impurities to the surface of the skin to be released. Cupping has been used for thousands of years in places like Egypt, China, and the Middle East to treat various health conditions by reducing inflammation and toxins in the body. It stimulates blood and lymph flow while strengthening the immune system. Cupping can help many issues like pain, respiratory problems, and skin conditions. It is a generally safe technique when performed properly by a trained practitioner.
Plant classification
The document provides information on plant classification, describing the four main groups that plants are classified into: mosses and liverworts, ferns, conifers, and flowering plants. It then focuses on mosses, providing details on their characteristics, life cycle, and subdivisions. The document also briefly outlines key aspects of ferns, conifers, and the angiosperms.
Introduction to plants 1233859493415311-3
1) Plants evolved adaptations like a waxy cuticle, stomata, and the ability to reproduce using pollen to survive on land.
2) Vascular plants have conducting tissues that transport water and nutrients, as well as seeds and flowers that make reproduction more efficient.
3) Angiosperms are divided into monocots and dicots based on differences in their leaves, roots, vascular tissue, and floral structures.
Chp9 growth and development
This document discusses plant growth and development, including:
1. It describes vegetative growth patterns in shoots and roots of annuals, biennials, and perennials.
2. Environmental factors like light, temperature, water, and gases influence plant growth. Light intensity, day length, and temperature correlate with seasonal growth patterns.
3. Reproductive growth involves phases from flower induction through fruit maturation. Flowering is induced by day length (photoperiodism) in some plants and temperature (vernalization) in others.
Chap. 4 plant reproduction final
Plant reproduction involves an alternation of generations between haploid and diploid phases. In seed plants like angiosperms, the sporophyte phase is dominant. During reproduction, the male gametophyte (pollen grain) fertilizes the female gametophyte inside the ovule. This triggers double fertilization, where one sperm cell fuses with the egg to form a zygote embryo, and another sperm fuses with polar nuclei to form triploid endosperm tissue to nourish the developing seed.
plant morphological lab activities ch 091129203156-phpapp01
This document discusses plant tissues and how they are organized in plant structures like stems, roots, and leaves. It describes the basic tissue types found in plants like parenchyma, collenchyma and sclerenchyma, as well as complex tissues like xylem, phloem and epidermis. The chapter also examines how plant tissues develop and are arranged differently between monocots and dicots.
chapter 4
Cell division through mitosis and meiosis is essential for growth, development, and reproduction in organisms. Mitosis produces two identical daughter cells during normal growth and tissue repair. Meiosis produces gametes like sperm and egg cells that have half the number of chromosomes, allowing sexual reproduction to create offspring with a full set of chromosomes from both parents. DNA is replicated and passed on to new cells through these cell division processes to ensure genetic continuity.
Stems 100926175806-phpapp02
Stems have several functions including supporting leaves, flowers, and fruits; transporting water and nutrients between roots and other plant parts; and storing food. They originate from the epicotyl region of seed embryos. Herbaceous stems are soft and green while woody stems are tough with secondary growth. Stems have internal specialized tissues like xylem and phloem that conduct water and nutrients respectively. Some stems are modified for storage, protection, or reproduction.
Mende
Mendel conducted experiments crossing pea plants that differed in distinct traits like seed color and shape. He discovered that traits are transmitted from parents to offspring through discrete units called genes located on chromosomes. His laws of heredity showed that for each trait there are two alleles that separate during gamete formation, with one randomly passed from each parent. The dominant allele will be expressed in offspring while the recessive is not. Additionally, different genes assort independently during gamete formation and fertilization.
Genotype and phenotype
The document discusses the differences between genotype and phenotype. Genotype refers to how genes code for a specific trait, using capital letters for dominant traits and lowercase for recessive traits. Phenotype refers to the outward appearance or expression of a trait. Some examples provided are that genotype could be TT for a purebred dominant tall pea plant, while phenotype looks at the actual observed trait of being tall. The key difference is that genotype deals with gene code, while phenotype deals with observable characteristics and traits.

The document discusses heredity and genetics, including Gregor Mendel's experiments with pea plants that laid the foundations for modern genetics. It explains basic genetics concepts such as alleles, genotypes, phenotypes, monohybrid and dihybrid crosses. The document also covers inheritance patterns such as incomplete dominance, codominance, and sex-linked traits.
Genetics
Genetics is the study of genes and inheritance of traits. Characteristics are physical features like eye color that come in different versions called traits, such as blue, green, or brown eyes. Inheritance occurs when traits are passed from parent to child through genes, which are bits of DNA information. Genetic diseases can be inherited from parent to child, such as Marfan syndrome. Reproduction can be sexual, through fertilization of an egg by sperm, or asexual through copying; both result in offspring. Mutations in genes during reproduction can produce new traits in offspring.
Genetics
Gregor Mendel discovered the fundamental principles of genetics through breeding pea plants. He found that traits are determined by alleles, or alternative forms of genes. Dominant alleles will mask recessive alleles in heterozygous individuals. Mendel used Punnett squares and conducted monohybrid and dihybrid crosses to study inheritance patterns, discovering the principles of segregation and independent assortment. The Hardy-Weinberg principle states that allele frequencies in a population will remain constant over time if certain conditions are met.
Genetic code 2081
The document outlines the process of RNA and protein synthesis, including the structure and types of RNA such as messenger RNA, ribosomal RNA, and transfer RNA, as well as the steps of transcription, translation, and the roles of RNA and DNA in coding for proteins. Key concepts covered are the genetic code, how mRNA carries instructions to assemble amino acids brought by tRNAs into proteins with the help of rRNA during translation on the ribosome.
Genetic traits
The document summarizes various genetic traits and what is known about their heritability. For traits like earlobe attachment, thumb extension, tongue rolling, dimples, and freckles, some scientists have reported they are due to a single dominant gene, while others note multiple genes may be involved. Handedness and hair curl have been linked to single or multiple genes. Allergies have a genetic component and risk increases with an allergic parent or parents. Views on hand clasping and colorblindness also provide insight into their genetic basis.
52 ch13mendel2007
This document summarizes Gregor Mendel's pioneering work in genetics through experiments breeding pea plants. Mendel documented traits like flower color and seed shape over multiple generations of pea plants. His data showed that traits are inherited as discrete units and that some traits are dominant over recessive traits. Mendel's findings established the basic principles of heredity, including the laws of segregation and independent assortment. His work laid the foundation for modern genetics.
07 gene mutations
The document discusses gene mutations, specifically point mutations that affect a single gene. It describes how mutations can occur at the DNA, mRNA, and protein levels through substitutions, inversions, additions, and deletions. This leads to changes in amino acid sequences which can significantly impact protein structure and function, potentially causing genetic disorders. Sickle cell anemia is provided as a specific example and results from a single nucleotide substitution in the beta-hemoglobin gene.
Molecular genetics partii 100131193902-phpapp01
This document discusses the process by which DNA is transcribed into mRNA and then translated into protein. Key points include:
- One gene typically codes for one polypeptide through a multi-step process of transcription and translation.
- During transcription, DNA is copied into mRNA by RNA polymerase. The mRNA then undergoes processing before exiting the nucleus, including capping, polyadenylation, and splicing of introns.
- During translation, the mRNA binds to ribosomes where transfer RNA molecules bring amino acids in the proper sequence specified by the mRNA codon sequence to produce a polypeptide chain.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

Carnivorous plant
- 1. Carnivorous Plants Graham Oden December 17,2008
- 2. What are Carnivorous Plants? • Carnivorous plants are plants that can eat insects and/or small animals.
- 3. How do Carnivorous plants get their energy? • They get their energy the same way the other plants do... Photosynthesis
- 4. Why do Carnivorous plants eat insects and other small animals? • They eat insects and other small animals because they live in places where the soil is low in nutrients. • Carnivorous plants get the needed nutrients from their “PREY”.
- 5. What types are there?
- 6. Pitfall Traps (pitcher plant) The pitcher plant is basically a slippery leaf wrapped into a tube shape that contains a pool of digestive enzymes at the bottom.
- 8. Most Pitfall Traps have the opening on the top of the plant, the Cobra Lily has an opening on the bottom. When an insect flies into it, it has “windows” that let light in but not insects out. The insects are attracted to the Pitfall Trap light but cant get out. (Cobra Lily)
- 10. Fly Paper traps (sundew) Fly Paper traps are coated with a sticky substance called “mucilage". When an insect lands on the plant it sticks to it, after a while the plant will curl around it and digest it.
- 11. Sundew Video (time lapse) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQ8kY_BcanQ
- 12. Snap traps (Venus fly trap) As you can see the Venus Fly Trap has small trigger hairs on the inside, so if an insect lands on it and triggers only one hair and flies off its lucky but if it triggers more than one it will cause its own doom.
- 13. Venus Fly Trap Video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUWQFF0RJN4
- 14. Bladder traps (Bladderwort) The Bladderwort is like an under water Venus Fly Trap. The bladders suck in and trap water insects.
- 16. Assignment • Draw your own carnivorous plant using only plant parts.
