Prologue

Through the creative mind of this high school biologist, a new story is about to reach your mind. I’m about to take you on the 40-day life and death journey the Brassica Rapa plant – From seed to seeds! Bear with me though, as it is written with scientific information, with both terms and simple definitions, pictures, illustrations and the like. The photographer/composite sketch artist, me, will be documenting the changes in development. Mind you, this blog will also be written in the perspective of the plant. However, plants do not, as far as we know, have thoughts, feelings, emotions or the ability to articulate their lives. This is a creative fallacy based on empirical evidence. This blog must also be taken with an open mind, a grain of salt and a ready-to-learn attitude. Without further ado:

Brassic Park: The Lifecycle of the Brassica Rapa

*Please note that the "Day" journals will decrease in number over time when there are conditions in which little change is documented and increased in times of vast changes.

Cellular Processes AND Internal Regulations (Since the cellular processes determine the regularion...) covered:
Root intake of nutrition, growth, Diffusion, Active Transport, Facilitated Diffusion, Osmosis, Cellular Respiration, Photosynthesis, Mitosis, Meiosis
