Artifact Collection PART 1.

.::Autotroph::.

An autotroph is an organisim that creats its own food, which I reperesented through a photo of a flower because they get their energy from the sun.

 .:Bryophytes::.

Bryophytes are groups of small green land dwelling plants. This is a photo of the bottom of a tree trunk which as noticed, has moss on the bottom. The moss is being used to represent bryophtes.

.::Flower Ovary::.The ovary of a flower is part of the female reproductive organ. It is usually located above/below/center of connection with the base of the petals. This flower shows a close up.

.::Gymnosperm Cone::.

The exact definition is considered to be a "naked seed." Basically saying that they do not produce flowers. Which in this photo is represented through the pine cone.

 
 
 
 

 

 
 
 

.::Keratin::.
Keratin is an extremely strong protien that is found majorly in skin, hair and nails. This photo represents that by showing a close up of the human hand, which ofcourse includes both skin and nails.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

.::Pollen::.

Pollen are grains produced from plants and come in a microscopic/round shape. The are a big part of reproduction. This flower shows pollen, which is the part above the petals in the center.

.::Mutualisim::.Mutualisim is a symbiotic relationship where both organisims in the relationship benefit. I used a photo of a butterfly on a flower to represent this. The flower benefits by getting pollen spreaded from flower to flower by the butterfly. The butterfly gets food from the flower. Therefore it is a mutual benefit.

.::Pollinator::.
A pollinator is an animal that helps pollinate plants. In this photo my example is a butterfly on a flower. When the butterfly comes to a flower to get its food, they end up getting sticky pollen on them. They then go to another flower, so the pollen ends up on the new flower, and so on.

.::Anther&Filament of a stem::.
The stamen is the male reproduction part of a flower. The anther is the tip of it, as circled in my picture. That is where pollen grains develope. The stem like part is the filament. Also circled in my picture. It acts like a support for the anther.

.::Stigma&style of carple::.

The carple is the female part of a flower. It is shaped like a stalk. The tip is called the stigma, and it traps pollen grains. Below it is the style, which holds up the stigma tip. Both are circled in my photo.

 .::WoodyStem::.
A more sturdy type of stem, made obviously of wood looking structure. In this photo it is seen that the stem holding up the flower is woody, and not green.

.::Deciduous Leaf::.

Leaves that drop from trees, usually in the fall. Deciduous comes from the latin for "to fall." Which is the reason for its name. This photo shows a fallen leaf.


 

.::Cuticle Layer of a plant::.
The cuticle layer of a plant is the really waxyish shiny layer. It prevents water loss for the plant.
This photo shows a clear view of the top waxy layer.

.::Adaptation of a plant::.

The actual definition of animal adaptation is the special characteristics that enable an animal to be sucessful in a particular environment. This photo shows a squirrel by a tree. Squirrels are adapted to this environment because of their teeth and ability to climb trees.

.::Fleshy Fruit with seeds::.

A fleshy fruit with seeds is said to have a soft pulpy wall on it. Which is represented through a photo of a straberry because it is both fleshy, and has seeds on it.

.::Fibrous proteins::.

Fibrous proteins are strong proteins that play a structural role in organisims for support and protection. An example of this is keratin which can both be represented through hair and nails because they contain such proteins.

.::Angiosperm::.

Angiosperms are flowering plants. In this photo i used a tomatoe to represent it because they produce fruit that develope from a flower.

.::Archaebacteria::.
Archaebacteria is a type of bacteria that is found in extremely hot environments. I took a photo of boiling water to represent this because typically archebacteria would be found there because of the crazy heat.

.::Conifer Leaf::.
Somewhat like a pine tree. The leafs are like needles as shown in this photo.

.::Ethylene::.

Ethylene is a colorless flamable gas that is used as a source of many organic compounds in welding, cutting metal, and to color citrus fruits. I hve represented this through the "color citrus fruit" part, which is shown in this apple.
