Nerium oleander a drought resistant plant
Nerium oleander is commonly known as Oleander or Nerium. It is a shrub cultivated in sub-tropical and temperate areas as ornamental or landscaping plant. In India it is currently grown along highways and gardens.
Technological Models
Recently, it has been found that Photo Voltaic Cells cannot be popularly used for power generation on large scales. However, our scientists have discovered that the alignment of Carbon Nano Tube with the polymer composites substrate would give very high efficiency in Photo Voltaic Conversion.
Grow Banyan and Tamarind for a better environment
Both the banyan and tamarind trees have large canopy and plenty of leaves. These produce lots of oxygen and absorb lots of carbon dioxide. Thus, besides numerous other benefits they keep up the balance of environment.
Conservation of Wildlife
Conservation of species in their natural habitats- in areas where they occur under normal conditions is called in-situ conservation.
This type of conservation strategy protects the entire area. Such an area is protected and maintained to conserve all the known or unknown species inhabiting it.
In this type of conservation, species are not isolated or provided with health care, food, or mating facilities. Only factors detrimental to species’ existence and development are eliminated in this conservation strategy. Human interference, such as hunting, cutting down trees, collecting firewood, etc., is completely banned in such areas.
Define conservation. Why do we need conservation?
Conservation of the environment implies the sustainable use and management of natural resources, including wildlife, water, air, and soils.
Exotic and Introduced Plants
Some propagules or seeds incidentally travel long distances and reach to other county. There they germinate and produce new plants.
How does Global Warming affect Our Lives
The regular pattern of weather conditions of a particular place is called as climate of that place. This regular pattern of weather conditions is considerably disturbed by fluctuations in temperature. The disturbance in the pattern of weather conditions at the particular place may thus be called as Climate Change.
How to manage our Natural Resources
Human activities have never been friendly to environment. The remains of Mohenjo-Daro and Harappa signify that the civilization ended due to desertification which might had been caused by large scale deforestation. Still today impacts of such human activities have started appearing. Hence it is essential that we manage our natural resources properly.
Mahua and Its Importance
Mahaua or the Madhuca longifolia is indigenous to India. It is a good sized tree and it grows up to 20 meters in height.
Modes of Reproduction
Two organisms- male and female are essential for sexual reproduction. Now let us study some basic methods of reproduction in single organisms.
