Plant Competition

Plant Competition
  • Like animal, plants living in the same habitat have to complete for the same factors in order to survive.
  • Plants need water, carbon dioxide, sunlight and nutrient to make food.
  • Plants get water and nutrient from the soil.
  • If there are too many plants growing in the same area, the place will be overcrowded.
  • They complete for sunlight, water, nutrient and space.
  • Competition can occur among plants of the same species or of different species.
  • When competition occurs, the plants that receive enough water, nutrient and sunlight grow better and healthier. 
  • Weaker plants may become stunted, wilted or die.

Speed

  • A fast moving vehicle takes a shorter time to reach its destination.
  • A slower moving vehicle will take a longer time to travel the same distance.
  • We can measure how fast or slow an object moves.
  • This measurement is called speed.
  • What is speed ? Speed involves distance and time.
  • If  we know the distance travelled and  the time taken, speed can be calculated using the formula  : speed = distance/ time
