Observing the leaves of a hibiscus (Hibiscus spp.) as it grows can tell you whether it's getting all it needs to thrive. Hibiscus is hardy to U.S Department of agriculture plant hardiness zones 9 through 11, where it's a perennial. In the cooler zones it's treated as an annual. (See References 1, p. 93) Hibiscus grows dark green, glossy leaves that are adorned with an abundance of flowers. Although yellowing hibiscus leaves can be an indication of the natural resting phase, it can also be a sign of a more serious matter, such as improper watering, lack of nutrients, and sap-sucking pests. The Resting Phase Hibiscus won't tolerate freezing temperatures. In cooler climates, the plant's leaves will turn yellow and and drop. This is an indication that it's entering the dormant resting phase. To encourage it to regrow, bring the hibiscus indoors, placing it in a cool room at 55 degrees Fahrenheit. Keep it here for six to eight weeks, watering it just enough to keep the soil from completely drying out. After this dormant period, cut back the plant to 6 inches from its base, and place it...
In Purple Hibiscus written by Chimamanda Adichie, the story of Kambili and her experiences throughout Nsukka and Enugu fit with the Hero’s Journey, a model of narrative that describes “the hero,” an archetype that ultimately reaches a great achievement through the stages of the Hero’s Journey. Although played in a realistic setting, unlike many of the examples portrayed in magical worlds such as Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings, Kambili experiences the same stages of the journey and by definition, is considered a hero. The stages that contribute the most significantly to modeling the Hero’s Journey of Kambili is The Ordinary World, Crossing the Threshold, and The Ordeal.

The Hidatsa tribe is a tribe that lives in what is now North Dakota and is neighbors with the Mandans and the Shoshone tribe. The entire Hidatsa tribe is made up of three villages, and the total population of all the villages is 2,100 people (www.pbs.org). Out of all the tribes in the area, the Hidatsa are actually the most peaceful. In order to get food, the Hidatsa tribe would farm and have seasonal buffalo hunts, but would trade the crops for meat and other items. Both parents of the children would tell legends and stories, as it is a tradition in the Hidatsa tribe (www.bigorrin.org). Houses in the villages would mainly be earth lodges, which are houses made of wooden frames and dirt packed tightly together (www.pbs.org). The Hidatsa tribe is a small tribe that regularly interacts with other tribes and visitors such as Lewis and Clark.
In 1976 Steve Jobs Co-founded the apple Computer Inc. Steve Jobs had an idea that would create a chain of brilliant ideas behind it. What Jobs did was step out of the normal and tested the limits of what could be done. Like Steve Jobs, music is constantly changing and developing new beats and styles. At the beginning of Lady’s Gaga’s career, many people questioned her style and music. Soon after, she was accepted and rose to the top of the charts. You may ask what this has to do with art but it’s very simple. Innovation takes time and patients. Like many music artist and inventers, painter and sculptors take risks with their ideas. According to “Other Criteria” Damien Hirst is one of the most influential artists of his generation. What Damien Hirst has done is very similar to what many inventers and new music artist are doing. That is why I would like to talk to you about the life of Damien, his innovations and art he has created.

One twin was named Enigonhahetgea which means bad mind, the other twin was named Enigorio which meant good mind. As they grew up they went their separate ways in life.
The story of the Hokulea, a model of the first canoes that brought the first Polynesians to Hawaii, is a story that restores cultural pride and history to Hawaiians. Her legacy was almost extinct, but survived and restored the relationship that society has with its island home. More than 600 years had gone by without seeing one of these canoes, until artist Herb Kane thought to build a sailing canoe just like the ones his ancestors sailed (“The Story of Hokulea”). Responsible for being the cornerstone of Polynesian culture, the Hokulea has evolved over many years and has helped revive a heritage that was almost lost.

Once the reserves have been used the plant will die. This is what happens in plants that are not grown in sunlight. Etiolation is a phenomenon that occurs in plants not being grown in sunlight, whereby the stem of the plant rapidly elongates to increase the probability of the plant finding light. In order to carry out this etiolation the plant must use its food reserves, so if the plant does not find light having used these reserves, it will die. Planning: I am planning to do an experiment over 3 weeks to find out
Frank Wright once said “The price of success is dedication, hard work, and an unremitting devotion to the things you want to see happen.” My fourth grade teacher, Mrs.Davis told me this, and I have lived by it ever since. It reminds me why I should be the best student I can be, and to make sure I am always a role model for others. I have given the Chase High Band my time, my dedication, and my best efforts. I truly have found one of my passions in life, Color Guard whether it be the way we perform or the way we bond as a family on and off the field. I have made so many new friends while being a part of my second family - the Chase High Band. I have shown that I can grow strong even when I feel weak, and I grow in my confidence every practice and
Under non-stressful conditions, abscisic acid presents in low levels in plants cells. This is because plant cells require just a low level of abscisic acid for normal growth. In stress conditions like extreme environments, abscisic acid content increases when plants exposed to extreme environments such as water shortage, salt stress, and cold.
