Plants obtain nutrition through various modes including autotrophic, heterotrophic, and saprotrophic nutrition. Autotrophic nutrition, which is found in green plants, involves plants making their own food through photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, green plants such as leaves use carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight to produce carbohydrates and release oxygen. Some non-green plants rely on heterotrophic nutrition and obtain nutrients from other living organisms. Saprotrophic plants get nutrients from decaying organic matter. Symbiotic relationships also provide nutrition, such as rhizobium bacteria living in root nodules of legumes that provide nitrogen to the plant in exchange for shelter and food.

Most of the plants have green pigment called chlorophyll and can make their own food. Some plants do not have chlorophyll and cannot synthesize their own food and are known as Heterotrophic plants
All living organisms such as plants and animals require food. So food is essential for all living organisms. Plants are capable of making their food themselves but humans and animals cannot.
Carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins and minerals are essential components of food, these components are called Nutrients.

Richard's entangled aventures in wonderlandRichard Gill
Since the loophole-free Bell experiments of 2020 and the Nobel prizes in physics of 2022, critics of Bell's work have retreated to the fortress of super-determinism. Now, super-determinism is a derogatory word - it just means "determinism". Palmer, Hance and Hossenfelder argue that quantum mechanics and determinism are not incompatible, using a sophisticated mathematical construction based on a subtle thinning of allowed states and measurements in quantum mechanics, such that what is left appears to make Bell's argument fail, without altering the empirical predictions of quantum mechanics. I think however that it is a smoke screen, and the slogan "lost in math" comes to my mind. I will discuss some other recent disproofs of Bell's theorem using the language of causality based on causal graphs. Causal thinking is also central to law and justice. I will mention surprising connections to my work on serial killer nurse cases, in particular the Dutch case of Lucia de Berk and the current UK case of Lucy Letby.
Deep Behavioral Phenotyping in Systems Neuroscience for Functional Atlasing a...Ana Luísa Pinho
Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) provides means to characterize brain activations in response to behavior. However, cognitive neuroscience has been limited to group-level effects referring to the performance of specific tasks. To obtain the functional profile of elementary cognitive mechanisms, the combination of brain responses to many tasks is required. Yet, to date, both structural atlases and parcellation-based activations do not fully account for cognitive function and still present several limitations. Further, they do not adapt overall to individual characteristics. In this talk, I will give an account of deep-behavioral phenotyping strategies, namely data-driven methods in large task-fMRI datasets, to optimize functional brain-data collection and improve inference of effects-of-interest related to mental processes. Key to this approach is the employment of fast multi-functional paradigms rich on features that can be well parametrized and, consequently, facilitate the creation of psycho-physiological constructs to be modelled with imaging data. Particular emphasis will be given to music stimuli when studying high-order cognitive mechanisms, due to their ecological nature and quality to enable complex behavior compounded by discrete entities. I will also discuss how deep-behavioral phenotyping and individualized models applied to neuroimaging data can better account for the subject-specific organization of domain-general cognitive systems in the human brain. Finally, the accumulation of functional brain signatures brings the possibility to clarify relationships among tasks and create a univocal link between brain systems and mental functions through: (1) the development of ontologies proposing an organization of cognitive processes; and (2) brain-network taxonomies describing functional specialization. To this end, tools to improve commensurability in cognitive science are necessary, such as public repositories, ontology-based platforms and automated meta-analysis tools. I will thus discuss some brain-atlasing resources currently under development, and their applicability in cognitive as well as clinical neuroscience.
Introduction:
RNA interference (RNAi) or Post-Transcriptional Gene Silencing (PTGS) is an important biological process for modulating eukaryotic gene expression.
It is highly conserved process of posttranscriptional gene silencing by which double stranded RNA (dsRNA) causes sequence-specific degradation of mRNA sequences.
dsRNA-induced gene silencing (RNAi) is reported in a wide range of eukaryotes ranging from worms, insects, mammals and plants.
This process mediates resistance to both endogenous parasitic and exogenous pathogenic nucleic acids, and regulates the expression of protein-coding genes.
What are small ncRNAs?
micro RNA (miRNA)
short interfering RNA (siRNA)
Properties of small non-coding RNA:
Involved in silencing mRNA transcripts.
Called “small” because they are usually only about 21-24 nucleotides long.
Synthesized by first cutting up longer precursor sequences (like the 61nt one that Lee discovered).
Silence an mRNA by base pairing with some sequence on the mRNA.
Discovery of siRNA?
The first small RNA:
In 1993 Rosalind Lee (Victor Ambros lab) was studying a non- coding gene in C. elegans, lin-4, that was involved in silencing of another gene, lin-14, at the appropriate time in the
development of the worm C. elegans.
Two small transcripts of lin-4 (22nt and 61nt) were found to be complementary to a sequence in the 3' UTR of lin-14.
Because lin-4 encoded no protein, she deduced that it must be these transcripts that are causing the silencing by RNA-RNA interactions.
Types of RNAi ( non coding RNA)
MiRNA
Length (23-25 nt)
Trans acting
Binds with target MRNA in mismatch
Translation inhibition
Si RNA
Length 21 nt.
Cis acting
Bind with target Mrna in perfect complementary sequence
Piwi-RNA
Length ; 25 to 36 nt.
Expressed in Germ Cells
Regulates trnasposomes activity
MECHANISM OF RNAI:
First the double-stranded RNA teams up with a protein complex named Dicer, which cuts the long RNA into short pieces.
Then another protein complex called RISC (RNA-induced silencing complex) discards one of the two RNA strands.
The RISC-docked, single-stranded RNA then pairs with the homologous mRNA and destroys it.
THE RISC COMPLEX:
RISC is large(>500kD) RNA multi- protein Binding complex which triggers MRNA degradation in response to MRNA
Unwinding of double stranded Si RNA by ATP independent Helicase
Active component of RISC is Ago proteins( ENDONUCLEASE) which cleave target MRNA.
DICER: endonuclease (RNase Family III)
Argonaute: Central Component of the RNA-Induced Silencing Complex (RISC)
One strand of the dsRNA produced by Dicer is retained in the RISC complex in association with Argonaute
ARGONAUTE PROTEIN :
1.PAZ(PIWI/Argonaute/ Zwille)- Recognition of target MRNA
2.PIWI (p-element induced wimpy Testis)- breaks Phosphodiester bond of mRNA.)RNAse H activity.
MiRNA:
The Double-stranded RNAs are naturally produced in eukaryotic cells during development, and they have a key role in regulating gene expression .

Intravital microscopy (IVM) is a powerful tool utilized to study cellular behavior over time and space in vivo. Much of our understanding of cell biology has been accomplished using various in vitro and ex vivo methods; however, these studies do not necessarily reflect the natural dynamics of biological processes. Unlike traditional cell culture or fixed tissue imaging, IVM allows for the ultra-fast high-resolution imaging of cellular processes over time and space and were studied in its natural environment. Real-time visualization of biological processes in the context of an intact organism helps maintain physiological relevance and provide insights into the progression of disease, response to treatments or developmental processes.
In this webinar we give an overview of advanced applications of the IVM system in preclinical research. IVIM technology is a provider of all-in-one intravital microscopy systems and solutions optimized for in vivo imaging of live animal models at sub-micron resolution. The system’s unique features and user-friendly software enables researchers to probe fast dynamic biological processes such as immune cell tracking, cell-cell interaction as well as vascularization and tumor metastasis with exceptional detail. This webinar will also give an overview of IVM being utilized in drug development, offering a view into the intricate interaction between drugs/nanoparticles and tissues in vivo and allows for the evaluation of therapeutic intervention in a variety of tissues and organs. This interdisciplinary collaboration continues to drive the advancements of novel therapeutic strategies.

NUTRITION IN PLANTS
Introduction
Food is the most important and basic thing for life. Carbohydrates, proteins, fats,
vitamins and minerals are the components of food. These components are necessary
for all living beings. All plants and animals require food for their growth and getting
energy. The process of utilization of food by an animal to obtain energy for growth and
development is known as nutrition. Plants make their food themselves but animals
cannot. Hence, animals depend directly or indirectly on the plant.
Mode of nutrition in plants
1. Autotrophic Nutrition
Auto means self and trophs means nourishment. Plants are called autotrophs because
they make their food themselves. The making of food for themselves is called the
Autotrophic nutrition. Autotrophic nutrition is found in green plants.
2. Heterotrophic Nutrition
The word Heterotrophic is the combination of two words i.e. Hetero + Trophs. Hetero
means ‘others’ and ‘trophs’ means nourishment. If organisms depend on others for their
food, it is called the Hetetrophic Nutrition.
Animals cannot make their food themselves. They depend for food upon plants.
Therefore, nutrition in animals is called Hetetrophic Nutrition. Animals are known as
heterotrophs.
3. Saprotrophic Nutrition
The taking of nutrients by organism from dead and decaying matter in the form of
solution is called the saprotrophic nutrition. The organisms which use saprotrophic
mode of nutrition are called saprotrophs. For example: fungi.
Photosynthesis - Food Making Process in Plants
The process of making of food by green plants in the presence of sunlight and
chlorophyll is known as photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the combination of two
words- Photo + Synthesis. ‘Photo’ means light and ‘Synthesis’ means to make.
Process of food making in green plants:
Green plants make their food themselves. Green leaves make food from Carbon dioxide
and water in the presence of sunlight and chlorophyll.
Hence, for taking place of photosynthesis carbon dioxide, water and sunlight must be
reached at the green leaves in addition to presence of chlorophyll.
Leaves have several tiny pores like structure on its lower surface. This is called stomata
through which leaves absorb carbon dioxide from air. Water is transported to the leaves
through hair like pipelines from the roots. These pipelines are present throughout the

NUTRITION IN PLANTS
plant, i.e. from roots to branches and leaves. These pipe-lines are known as Xylem.
Xylem is a type of tissues. Chlorophyll, a green pigment, is found in green leaves.
Chlorophyll absorbs sunlight and gives energy. Chlorophyll absorbs sunlight, carbon
dioxide and water and converts them to carbohydrate and oxygen. Carbohydrate is
used as food and oxygen is emitted out to atmosphrere.This whole process of making
food by plants is called photosynthesis.
The reaction takes place in the process of photosynthesis can be written as:
Carbon dioxide + Water Carbohydrate + Oxygen
Carbohydrate which is produced in the process of photosynthesis is ultimately
converted into starch and stored into leaves. From leaves it is transported to the parts of
plants. Starch is a type of carbohydrate. The oxygen so produced is released into
atmosphere through the stomata.
Leaves are known as the kitchen or food factories of the plants because photosynthesis
takes place in leaves. Leaves look green because of the presence of chlorophyll.
Besides leaves, photosynthesis takes place in other green parts of the plant also, such
as in green stems. Chlorophyll is necessary for photosynthesis; hence photosynthesis
takes place only in green plants.
The leaves of plants that grow in desert areas are modified in spine like structure or
scales to reduce the loss of water in the course of transpiration. In such plants
photosynthesis takes place in green stems.
The photosynthesis helps to maintain a balance between oxygen and carbon dioxide in
the atmosphere as it absorbs carbon dioxide and release oxygen.
Sunlight is necessary for photosynthesis. Thus sun is the ultimate source of energy for
all living organism.
Our earth is the only unique planet, where photosynthesis takes place. In the absence
of photosynthesis life would not be possible on earth.
Following are necessary for photosynthesis to be taken place:
• Presence of sunlight
• Presence of Chlorophyll
• Presence of Water

NUTRITION IN PLANTS
• Presence of carbon-dioxide
Photosynthesis in Algae
Green patches in ponds or near the stagnant water can be seen easily. These green
patches are living organism called algae. Algae are plants. Often algae grow near the
shallow waterlogged areas such as near tube-wells, taps, etc. One may slip over it.
Algae look green because of presence of Chlorophyll. Algae prepare their own food by
the process of photosynthesis.
Synthesis of plant food other than carbohydrate
Plants need proteins and fats besides the carbohydrate. Proteins are nitrogenous
substances which contain nitrogen. Although nitrogen is present in abundance in
atmosphere, but plant cannot absorb atmospheric nitrogen. Plant gets nitrogen from
soil. Certain types of bacteria called rhizobium are present in soil. They convert gaseous
nitrogen into usable form and release it into the soil. Plants absorb these soluble forms
of nitrogen along with water and other minerals through their roots.
Sometimes farmers add nitrogenous fertilizer to their field to fulfill the need of nitrogen.
In this way plants gets fulfillment of nitrogen along with other nutrients. After the
fulfillment of all nutrients plants synthesis proteins and fats.
Modes of Nutrition in non-green plants
Heterotrophic Mode of Nutrition in Plants
Some plants do not have the chlorophyll. Hence, they cannot synthesis their food by
themselves. Such plants are known as non green plants. They depend on other
organisms for food. Such plants use the heterotrophic mode of nutrition. Some of them
are called parasite. A parasite is an organism which lives on or inside the body of
another organism and takes shelter and food from that organism. The host; in this case;
is always at loss.
Plants that do not have chlorophyll are called non-green plants. Plants, which live on
other plants for food, are called parasitic plants.
Parasite (Parasitic Plant):
Plants that get their food from other plants by living on them are called parasite.
Example; Cuscuta, mistletoe.

NUTRITION IN PLANTS
Cuscuta is a vine like plant with yellowish stem. It twines around big trees, like banyan
tree. Cuscuta gets nutrition from the tree on which it lives. The tree upon which it climbs
and lives is called the host. Here, banyan is the host and cuscuta is the parasite.
Some plants are total parasite while some are partial parasite.
A total parasite fully depends on other plants for their nutrition. For example - cuscuta.
Partial parasite
Partial parasite is a parasite that receives a part of its nutrients from host. For example;
mistletoe bears green leaves. It synthesizes its own food, but receives water and
mineral from host plant.
Insectivorous plant
Some plants eat insects. Such plants are called insectivorous plants. They trap and
digest the insects. Pitcher plant is the example of an insectivorous plant. In pitcher plant
the leaf is modified to form a pitcher like structure. The bright colour of the pitcher
makes it very attractive to insects. Inside the pitcher; there are several hair-like
structures. These hairs direct the trapped insects downwards. When an insect sits on
the pitcher of the plant, the lid closes and the insects get trapped inside the pitcher. The
insect is then digested by the enzymes secreted by the cells of the plants.
Cause of eating of insects by plants:
The soil of marshy land is deficient in nitrogen. Plants living in marshy areas do not get
nitrogen from the soil. Their nitrogen need is fulfilled by sucking the juice of insects.
Venus flytrap, utricularia, drosera and Rafflesia are the other examples of insectivorous
plants.
Saprotrophs –
Saprtrophs are non-green plants e.g. Agaricus (Mushroom) fungi, yeasts and bacteria.
Saprotrophs get their food from dead or decaying organic matters. They grow on
decaying organic matters such as cow-dung, wood, bread, etc.
Saprotrophs secrete digestive juice over the decaying materials and absorb nutrients
from them. This is called Saprotrophic Mode of Nutrition. Such plants are called
saprotophs.
Symbiosis or mutualism –
Symbiosis is the combination of two Greek words ‘Sym’ means ‘with’ and ‘biosis’ means
‘living’, which means living together. In symbiosis or mutualism two different types of

SCIENCE NOTES CLASS 7TH
NUTRITION IN PLANTS
organisms live and work together for their mutual benefit from each other. They share
shelter and nutrients, e.g. Lichens. Lichens are composite organisms composed of
fungus and alga. Fungus is a saprophyte and alga is an autotroph. The Fungus supplies
water and minerals to the cells of the alga while the alga supplies food; prepared by
photosynthesis.
A bird sitting on the back of a rhino is an example of symbiosis. The bird gets worms to
eat, while the rhino gets rid of those worms.
Replenishment of Nutrients in Soil
Some fungus lives in the roots of the plans. Roots of the plants provide shelter and food
to the fungus while fungus provides important nutrients to the plants.
Because of continuous farming nutrients keep declining in the soil. Hence, to replenish
those nutrients fertilizers are added to the soil.
Plants require a lot of nitrogen to grow and to be healthy. Although, a lot of nitrogen is
available in the atmosphere, but plants cannot absorb nitrogen in gaseous form. There
is a bacterium called Rhizobium, which lives in the root nodules of legumes, such as
gram, moong, etc. These bacteria can absorb nitrogen from the atmosphere and make
it available for the plants. Rhizobium cannot make its food, hence, it provides nitrogen to
the legumes and in return legumes provide them food and shelter. This is an example of
symbiotic relationship. This has great importance for farmers. Fields in which
leguminous plants are grown from time to time, do not need addition of nitrogenous
fertilizers.
