Brassica rapa - Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

A research paper discussing how Brassica rapa (also known as Wisconsin Fast Plant) seedlings react to varying soil salinity levels. This is a relatively short and easy to understand paper, however all of the main research points and questions are clearly discussed.

Student Exploration: Fast Plants® 1 – Growth and Genetics Note to teachers and students: The Fast Plants® Gizmo was created in collaboration with the Wisconsin Fast Plants Program of the University of Wisconsin-Madison. These lessons can be used independently or in conjunction with classroom Fast Plants experiments. Vocabulary: allele, dominant allele, Fast Plants, gene, genetics, genotype, heterozygous, homozygous, offspring, phenotype, pollen, pollinate, Punnett square, recessive al...

Prior Knowledge Questions (Do these BEFORE using the Gizmo.) 1. What do plants need to survive? Plants need nutrients from the soil, water, air and light. 2. How do plants reproduce? Plants reproduce sexually through the fusion of male and female gametes in the flower. Plants have two types called asexual and sexual. Gizmo Warm-up Several common vegetables, including Bok choy, napa cabbage, and turnips, are varieties of a plant called Brassica rapa. Fast plants are a rapid-c...

Prior Knowledge Questions (Do these BEFORE using the Gizmo.) 1. What do plants need to survive? Plants need space, air, and ideal temperatures . 2. How do plants reproduce? Plants reproduce through asexual for sexual reproduction. In asexual reproduction it's done through the roots stems and even the leaves on the plant itself , but through sexual reproduction there's a Fusion between Bell and female gamuts in the specific plan. Gizmo Warm-up Several common vegetables, including Bok cho...

Prior Knowledge Questions (Do these BEFORE using the Gizmo.) Gizmo Warm-up Several common vegetables, including Bok choy, napa cabbage, and turnips, are varieties of a plant called Brassica rapa. Fast plants are a rapid-cycling variety of Brassica rapa that was developed at the University of Wisconsin. These plants have short growing cycles and are ideal for classroom use. In the Fast Plants ® 1 – Growth and Genetics Gizmo, you will learn about the life cycle and genetic traits of Fas...
