  2. Thickened fluids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thickened_fluids

    0 – Thin liquids: Unthickened, such as water or juice. Common thin liquids include coffee, tea, clear broth, clear juice, skim milk, 2% milk, and whole milk. 1 – Slightly thick (between 9 and 6 ml pour out of a 10ml syringe in 10 seconds) 2 – Mildly thick (between 6 and 2 ml pour out) 3 – Moderately thick (2 or less ml pour out)

  3. Nectar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nectar

    Nectar is a viscous, sugar-rich liquid produced by plants in glands called nectaries, either within the flowers with which it attracts pollinating animals, or by extrafloral nectaries, which provide a nutrient source to animal mutualists, which in turn provide herbivore protection.

  4. Plant secretory tissue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_secretory_tissue

    Glands secreting a sugary liquid—the nectar—in flowers pollinated by insects are called nectaries. Nectaries may occur on the floral stalk or on any floral organ: sepal, petal, stamen, or ovary. The hydathode structures discharge water—a phenomenon called guttation through openings in margins or tips of leaves.

  5. Nectar (drink) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nectar_(drink)

    In the United States and the United Kingdom, the term "fruit juice" is restricted to beverages that are 100% pure juice, whereas a "nectar" may be diluted (to a degree limited by regulations) with water and contain additives besides fruit juice, including natural and artificial sweeteners, and preservatives.

  6. Floral morphology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floral_morphology

    Diagram of flower parts. In botany, floral morphology is the study of the diversity of forms and structures presented by the flower, which, by definition, is a branch of limited growth that bears the modified leaves responsible for reproduction and protection of the gametes, called floral pieces.

  7. Nectarivore - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nectarivore

    An Australian painted lady (Vanessa kershawi) feeding on nectar through its long proboscis. In zoology, a nectarivore is an animal which derives its energy and nutrient requirements from a diet consisting mainly or exclusively of the sugar-rich nectar produced by flowering plants.

  8. List of viscosities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_viscosities

    For liquid, the dynamic viscosity is usually in the range of 0.001 to 1 Pascal-second, or 1 to 1000 centiPoise. The density is usually on the order of 1000 kg/m^3, i.e. that of water. Consequently, if a liquid has dynamic viscosity of n centiPoise, and its density is not too different from that of water, then its kinematic viscosity is around n ...

  9. Agave syrup - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agave_syrup

    Agave syrup, also known as maguey syrup or agave nectar, is a sweetener commercially produced from several species of agave, including Agave tequilana (blue agave) and Agave salmiana. Blue-agave syrup contains 56% fructose as a sugar providing sweetening properties.
