Understanding Tropism

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

The fifth paragraph to the second subheading, Sky and earth, advises us that "But tropism can be negative to light, for there is also geotropism, sometime known as gravitotropism, which is characteristic of roots. Roots grow downwards because at the root tip they have an elongation zone. Within the roots we find organelles called amyloplasts, which contain starch, which weighs them downwards towards the earth. Within these organelles are gravity sensitive cells called statocytes, which ensure downward growth."

Are different plants attune to different biogeographical and temporal definitions of their gravitotropism?

For example, do some find their gravitotropism less or more injured by extensive or minimal or moderate root-pruning than others?

Understanding the doctrine of the Trinity

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

Aramaic and Syriac as related languages intrigue me.

Might that mean that the Holy Family comprehended if not spoke both languages?

The Quiet Servants

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

Unitedstatesian motor scooters can be gas-driven or operated by periodically picking up speed by running one foot on the ground.

Which do motor-scootering sisters drive?

(Is there such a thing as a solar-energy motor-scooter option for them?)

The Case for Jesus:a review

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

So fasting without water can be practiced for "very limited periods."

Might that limited period be 3 hours (for respect to Jesus Christ's time on the Cross?

Rising Ground: a review

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

Cornish-language revival intrigues me.

Might there have been dictionaries, glossaries, spelling lists, translations, vocabulary sheets to make sure of mustering correct meanings to Cornish words?

Natural Law Ethics

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

The term humanism intrigues me.

Might harming others exclude or include our animal and plant sentients?

June, 2050: What will the world be like

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

Amen about such solar-system evolutions and such technology so far in the future and therefore beyond our lifespans!

But will we see it all from the after-life in the next world?

Between Now and Eternity

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

Well, that must have been helpful not to have to name-change with religious-belief and practice changes.

Is there any indication whether early Christian converts invoked pagan names for their children born after parental Christianizations?

A day in a Floral Marquee

My experience is that public amenities are kept out of the floral marquee.

The Drunken Botanist: a review

Drones are used, but whether used enough I cannot say.

The Drunken Botanist: a review

The computer crashed before I communicated another component of my comment below.

Private-property trees fallen onto or hanging over public land such as sidewalks and public-domain land such as roadsides from the pavement end to 3 feet (0.9144 meters) inward can be monitored by drones.

Is the British Isles invoking drone and remote-access technology or old-fashioned human power to inspect such potentially dangerous, risky situations as the two indicated above?

A day in a Floral Marquee

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

Discounted prices perhaps appear non-logical to arrangements such as floral marquees whose set-up perhaps cannot compete with business cooling, heating and storing configurations.

On-site refreshments undoubtedly consider tea so cherished by British Isles-ers, correct ;-D?

And Man Created God: review of the book

The computer crashed before I commenced another component of my comment below.

Pioneering and previous uses of developed urban land gets my attention.

Vatican City intrigues me as whether its land is of previous secular or spiritual non-use and use.

Would Vatican City have to be built after or without sanctifying its land?

Cultivating Marginal Land

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

So two-generation tenancies no longer exist. How sad that is for families who look to such long-term arrangements to maintain what mattered to their land-loving immediate and remoter ancestors!

How long might "short term rentals" be?
