Guttation is the process by which drops of xylem sap appear on the tips or edges of leaves, usually at night. It occurs through specialized pores called hydathodes, and is caused by root pressure forcing water into the leaves. The water contains minerals and other compounds. Transpiration also involves water movement through plants but occurs during the day through stomata and results in water vapor loss rather than liquid droplets. While both processes move water, guttation provides little benefit to plants and may sometimes injure them by depositing salts.

The loss of water from aerial parts of plants in the form of vapor is known as transpiration.
The loose arrangement of the living thin walled mesophyll cells, which results in an abundance of inter cellular space provides an ideal condition for the vaporation of water from internal leaf surface.
Part of the epidermal surface of the leaf is made up of a great number of microscopic pores called stomata.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
2. Guttation
• Guttation is the appearance of drops
of xylem sap on the tips or edges of
leaves of some vascular plants, such as
grasses. Guttation is not to be confused
with dew, which condenses from the
atmosphere onto the plant surface
Secretion of water on to the surface of
leaves through specialized pores, or
hydathodes.
5. What is the main cause of guttation in plants?
• The main cause of guttation in plants is
root pressure,during night when root
pressure is high sometimes den due to
this pressure watery drops ooze out
with the assistance of special
structures which help in guttation
called the hydathodes.
6. Transpiration
• Transpiration is a process similar to
evaporation. It is a part of the water cycle, and
it is the loss of water vapor from parts of plants
(similar to sweating), especially in leaves but
also in stems, flowers and roots. Leaf surfaces
are dotted with openings which are collectively
called stomata, and in most plants they are
more numerous on the undersides of the
foliage. The stomata are bordered by guard
cells that open and close the pore. Leaf
transpiration occurs through stomata.

11. Transpiration
(Moisture loss is a pull due to evaporation) Evaporation of
water through stomata.
Loss of moisture from leaves and stems. Occurs usually during
the day. Stomata are on the underside of leaves 90% of moisture
loss is through Transpiration.
13. HYDATHODES
A hydathode is a type of secretory tissue in
leaves, usually of Angiosperms, that secretes
water through pores in the epidermis or
margin of leaves, typically at the tip of a
marginal tooth or serration.
They probably evolved from modified
stomata. It is involved in guttation, where
water is released from the top in order to
transport the nutrients in the water from the
roots to the leaves. Hydathodes are
connected to the plant vascular system by a
vascular bundle.
14. Figure (a) Nasturtium leaf showing guttation at the margin of leaf
(b) A vertical section of a leaf showing hydathode.
17. Stomata
• In botany a stoma (also stomate; plural stomata) is a pore,
found in the leaf and stem epidermis that is used for gas
exchange. The pore is bordered by a pair of specialized
parenchyma cells known as guard cells that are responsible for
regulating the size of the opening. The term stoma is also used
collectively to refer to an entire stomatal complex, both the
pore itself and its accompanying guard cells. Air containing
carbon dioxide and oxygen enters the plant through these
openings where it is used in photosynthesis and respiration,
respectively. Oxygen produced by photosynthesis in the
spongy layer cells (parenchyma cells with pectin) of the leaf
interior exits through these same openings. Also, water vapor
is released into the atmosphere through these pores in a
process called transpiration.
20. Differences between stomata &Hydathodes
Stomata
Hydathodes
1.Occure in epiderm of leaves ,young
stems .
1.Occure at the tip or margin of leves
that grown in moist shady place .
2.Stomatal aperture is guarded by two
kidney shaped guard cells.
2.Aperture of hydathodes is surround
by a ring of cuticularized cells
3.The two guard cells are generally
surrounded by subsidiary cell.
3.Subsidary cells are absent
4.Opening and closing of the stomatal
aperture is regulated by guard cells .
4.Hydathode pores remain always open
.
5.These are involved in transpiration
and exchange of gases .
5.These are involved guttation .
21. Hydathodes may be active or passive
1-Active Hydathodes are specialized
epidermal cells which do not have a cuticle
on the outside and are not connected
directly with vascular strand directly.
2-Passive Hydathode comprises loosely
arranged ,colourless and parenchymatous
cells known as epithem.it lies inside the leaf
below the vein end.
22. Chemical content
• Guttation fluid may contain a variety of
organic and inorganic compounds, mainly
sugars, and mineral nutrients, and potassium.
On drying, a white crust remains on the leaf
surface.
• The water that is lost in this process is not pure
but contains minerals, , organic acids, sugars
and even enzymes. The estimation of solutes
lost in this process, reveal that certain plants
loose about 200-500 mg of solutes per liter of
water.
23. Guttation fluid
Guttation fluid contain various and
noticeable
amount
of
micro¯o
molecules .
The guttation fluid may rill off,evaporate, or
reabsorbed.
Guttation play a role in tip burn of leaves.
Guttation fluid as its easly collectable
sollutions can be used in production of
recombinant protiens.
24. Analysis
• If high levels of nitrogen appear in the
fluid, it is a sign of fertilizer burn
.Excess nitrogen must be leached from
the soil by addition of large quantities
of water. This may result in water
pollution, but is the best way to restore
soil fertility.
Fertilizer burn on a leaf
25. MECHANISM OF GUTTATION
• Under certain conditions like soil flooded
with overnight rain water and with high
relative humidity of the day atmosphere, the
root system of some plants like tomato,
potato, etc., absorb excess of water by active
uptake. As a result, hydrostatic pressure
develops in the root system which actually
pushes water upwards. So the water along
with other soluble components of the cells
is forced out of the xylem elements located
into Epithem tissue.
26. • As result, the space behind the water
stomata gets filled with the water and with
more root pressure operating; the liquid is
virtually pushed out of the pore, where the
stomata
do
not
offer
any
resistance. Probably transfer cells may also
help in the retrieval of minerals and other
components from the xylem elements and
secreting out along with water.
27. • However, it has been speculated that active
hydathodes may directly secrete the
minerals and organic acids out of the
passive stomata. Such active secretion of
the above said substances creates
a diffusion gradient and water is just
withdrawn from the cells into exterior
surface so guttation takes place. In spite of
the borderline between active and passive
mechanisms of guttation is not much, the
concepts are attractive.
28. Guttation injuries
The injuries of concentrated gutted solution
are related to three kinds of casual bases.
• First, injuries are connected with loss and
depletion of usual amounts of vital nutrient
substances.
• Secondly,injuries
are
caused
by
the
accumulation and concentration of guttation
products on localized areas of the plants.
• Finally, the entrance of various foreign agents
and pathogen causes injuries since they go
through water pore into the hydathodes during
active guttation periods.
29. Guttation injuries
• Chlorosis and necrosis, two guttation injury
symptoms, are usually observed on leaves
whose injuries are generally caused by direct
action of concentrated guttation solution and
microorganisms’ infection.
30. The condition where the process of
guttation occure
• At night, transpiration usually does not occur
because most plants have their stomata closed.
When there is a high soil moisture level, water
will enter plant roots, because the water
potential of the roots is lower than in the soil
solution. The water will accumulate in the
plant, creating a slight root pressure. The root
pressure forces some water to exude through
special leaf tip or edge structures, hydathodes,
forming drops. Root pressure provides the
impetus for this flow, rather than
transpirational pull.
31. Why Does Guttation Take Place at Night?
The conditions must be right for guttation to
occur. Transpiration stops at night when the
stomata on leaves close. Water in the soil is
absorbed by the roots of vascular plants by
osmosis when the water potential in the
roots is lower than the water potential in
the soil. Root pressure forces the water up
through the roots into the stems and leaves
of plants.
33. The related studies regarding to guttation
• Table 1- following show that some
experiment about
the composition of
guttation fluid from Rye, Wheat, and Barley
Seedlings it show that total sugar content is
about equal in rye and barley fluids, but
lower in xvheat. Glucose is the principal
sugar component of the rye and barley
fluids and galactose highest in wheat. Most
of the amino acid in all 3 fluids is aspartic
acid or asparagine.
34. Barley fluid is far higher than the other 2 in
total amino acids, with wheat the lowest.
Most inorganic elements are found to be
highest in barley and lowest in wlheat, with
the exception of iron where rye is highest and
barley lowest. Barley fluid is highest in
choline, paminobeuizoic acid. thiamine, and
uracil, while rye is highest in inositol and
pyridoxine. Wheat is mutch lower than the
other 2 in choline and inositol.
35.
36. Advantages and disadvantages of guttation
• The significance of guttation is not clear. It is of
less importance to plants. Sometimes it may
cause injury to leaf margins by salt deposits
which is left by evaporation of guttation water.
The salt deposits at the margin of pore of
hydathode may plasmolyse and kill the
entering pathogenic bacteria and fungi. the
process of guttation important nutrients and
water may be lost,which may in turn lead to the
dehydration and wilting of the plant.
38. Condition ocuring guttation
Guttation depend on many enviromental
conditions among these factors that favor
guttation are high water absorption ,high
root pressure ,and reduced transpiration .
The wind velocity.
soil moisture stress, as external factors,
played dominant roles in the regulation of
guttation.
