Plants Food Seeds

Plants give us lots of things including oxygen,
foods, and medicines. Plants need things like
water, light, and air. The amount of daylight
affects their growth. Plants also need food, just
like we do. The different parts of a plant help it
make food. Some plants cross-pollinate. These
plants have male (the stamen), or female (the
carpel) parts. Wind and water sometimes scatter
the pollen, but insects do most of the work. Other
plants pollinate themselves. A new plant is born
from a seed. The se...

this reason that a great many people from other
countries immigrate here. They are seeking a
better life. Often, however, they get mistreated.

Imprisonment Without Parole Threat To Society

death penalty as being an uninformed opinion. More
people are in favor of the death penalty, now then
back a few decades ago. People are not well
informed on the statistics of the death penalty,
like the number of prisoners, or the racial
discrimination etc. I think that if more people
were informed that some opinions would be changed.

blacks, and Republicans over Democrats,
