  2. Plants in space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plants_in_space

    Zinnia plant in bloom aboard an Earth orbiting space station. The growth of plants in outer space has elicited much scientific interest. [1] In the late 20th and early 21st century, plants were often taken into space in low Earth orbit to be grown in a weightless but pressurized controlled environment, sometimes called space gardens. [1]

  3. Astrobotany - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astrobotany

    Tikhov's research into astrobotany would later develop into research into growing plants in space, or demonstrating the possibility of plants to grow in extraterrestrial conditions (especially comparing the climate of Mars and Siberia), but he was the first known astronomer to use color to attempt to measure the level of vegetation on an ...

  4. Xylem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xylem

    Water is lost much faster than CO 2 is absorbed, so plants need to replace it, and have developed systems to transport water from the moist soil to the site of photosynthesis. [33] Early plants sucked water between the walls of their cells, then evolved the ability to control water loss (and CO 2 acquisition) through the use of stomata ...

  5. Mass flow (life sciences) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_flow_(life_sciences)

    According to cohesion-tension theory, water transport in xylem relies upon the cohesion of water molecules to each other and adhesion to the vessel's wall via hydrogen bonding combined with the high water pressure of the plant's substrate and low pressure of the extreme tissues (usually leaves).

  6. Seed dispersal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seed_dispersal

    Epilobium hirsutum seed head dispersing seeds. In spermatophyte plants, seed dispersal is the movement, spread or transport of seeds away from the parent plant. [1] Plants have limited mobility and rely upon a variety of dispersal vectors to transport their seeds, including both abiotic vectors, such as the wind, and living vectors such as birds.

  7. Vegetable Production System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vegetable_Production_System

    A Veggie module weighs less than 8 kg (18 lb) and uses 90 watts. [7] It consists of three parts: a lighting system, a bellows enclosure, and a reservoir. [8] The lighting system regulates the amount and intensity of light plants receive, the bellows enclosure keeps the environment inside the unit separate from its surroundings, and the reservoir connects to plant pillows where the seeds grow.

  9. Panspermia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panspermia

    Plant seeds can be an alternative transport vessel. Some plants produce seeds that are resistant to the conditions of space, [8] which have been shown to lie dormant in extreme cold, vacuum, and resist short wavelength UV radiation. [8] They are not typically proposed to have originated on space, but on another planet.
