第一回 子葉

Chapter 1 Cotyledon

 觀察時間:8 11 - 16

Observation Period: August 11th - 16th

 植物可分為單子葉雙子葉類別。

Plants can be divided into two categories: Monocotyledon and Dicotyledonous. 

 子葉是生長在種子中的。在發芽後未長出新葉前搶先進行光合作用#

Cotyledons are born in the seed. They produce the food by Photosynthesis# before the first leaf appears.

 小活動 Activity

留心種子發芽情況,找尋植物子葉,看看它是一片葉(單子葉)抑或兩片葉(雙子葉)?

Look at your sprouting seed, find out whether they have only one leaf (that is Monocotyledonous), or two leaves (that is Dicotyledonous)?

我的「希望的幼苗」是:單子葉雙子葉的。(請將不適用者劃去)

My Shoots of Hope is: Monocotyledonous / Dicotyledonous. (Please delete wherever inapplicable) 

# 光合作用是一個植物的生化過程, 主要是把太陽能、水和二氧化碳經葉綠素合成氧及糖。

Photosynthesis is a plant bio-chemical process to make glucose from water and carbon dioxide in the chloroplast.
