plants using artificial

Certain flowering plants have the capacity to develop a part of their somatic body into a new independent plant. In artificial vegetative propagation, such plants are identified and special techniques are applied to obtain new independent plant. Hor..

Vegetative propagation produces the next generation that is genetically identical to the parent. Such an organism that is genetically identical to the parent is called a clone. In case of plants with advantageous characteristics, the characteristics can be preserved by producing clones. T..

The eggs of some normally sexually reproducing animals can be induced by artificial means to develop parthenogenetically. The stimuli inducing artificial parthenogenesis are salts, weak acids, organic solvents, urea, sucrose and physical stimuli like temperature, electric shock ..

Artificial Kidney - The haemodialyzer or artificial kidney is a machine used to filter the blood of a person whose kidneys are damaged. The process is called haemodialysis. Haemodialysis is defined as the seperation of small molecules from large molecules in a solution..

New species can be created by domesticated animal husbandry for better and yield. For example, a new species of domestic sheep were created by hybridisation that no longer produced viable offspring with the parent species. Domestic cattle on the other hand, with several varieties such as jersey, h..

The earliest attempt towards classification of living organisms is seen in the works of many ancient philosophers in Greek and India. The information available from many ancient scriptures of our country indicates the attempts made by Indians towards classification of plants and animals. ..

Artificial Sweetening Agents - For diabetic patients, sugar cannot be used as a sweetening agent. Artificial sweetening agents that are non-nutritive in nature are used as substituents for sugar (specially in soft drinks). Examples are saccharin (500 times sw..

. Nowadays other bombarding particles (i.e., projectiles) like protons ( 1 H 1 ), deutrons 1 H 2 electrons can be accelerated to very high speeds by fluctuating electric and magnetic fields in machines such as cyclotron, synchrotron etc. These high speed particles are more efficient in causing nucl..

Scientists have genetically engineered agronomically important crop plants, using the meristematic cell..

Plant Breeding - Crop production can be improved by breeding new varieties of crops having higher yield. The main aim of plant breeding is to produce new crops superior to the existing ones. By this method new varieties of crops, having higher yield, resistant to pests and disea..
