In welcoming the New Year, Chinese people wear new clothes in honor of the arrival of a new atmosphere, and began to show its beauty. The trees begin to turn green again, the shoots begin to emerge and the animals got up from his sleep after a long winter sleep to hide or run.

     
The people or their relatives, ranging exchange of visits, visiting one another, whether family or friend to say: 'Hsin Tjhun Kiong Hie', which means: Happy New Season Flowers. The children did not want to miss, they are most happy to welcome the coming season which began to grow flowers, they deliver to worship and congratulations to their parents each and they get a reply blessing and prayer from Him. Besides, do not forget they get a 'red envelope' (Ang Pao) which contains the money, after a respectful greeting to the elders.

     
There is a Chinese proverb which says; "If you respect the parents themselves and expand it to other parents ... Paying attention to his own kin and expand it to other family members ... to love their own children, and expand it to other kids ... Noting fellow himself especially close to and expand it to other fellow ... So to manage and govern this world will be as easy as rotating the object in the palm of the hand ... ... "

     
Today the words the phrase we often hear and see, is' khung Hsi Fa 'Cay' (meaning; Hopefully constantly in a state of abundance) and 'Thiam Thiam Hok Siu' (meaning; hopefully long life and always abundant sustenance)

PRAZZER-CAREER


A career is a way of earnings of living. It also means of occupation of profession. It is an occupation in which special education or training is required, as the profession of an architect, the profession of a pharmacist, the profession of a doctor, etc. but career is sometimes closely related to progress through life. For example a teacher usually encourages his students by saying “ you can learn much by reading about the careers of great men” or “ if you work hard, you will have a successful career
A century ago the processes of choosing a career was much simpler matter than it is today. A boy often followed in his father`s footsteps. His sister learned the household skulls that would prepare her to become a wife and mother.
Nowdays young people grow up in a much freer society. They can become banker. Bank-teller, clerk, barber, shopkeeper, dentist, and sugeon. As a result of automation or using computers to run other machines, there will be fewer openings in some jobs in the future. At the same time, continued economic growth would bring about more openings in many occupation, and advances in technology will creat jobs do not ever exist today.
We went to know what makes a person choose a particular career and why one person decides to become an acoountant and anotheran engineer.early childhood experience are important. Next comes the tentativeperiod, when young people of about 12 to 16 become more aware of their individual interests and skills and more familiar with the world of work. Then comes the realistic period, when basic decisions about career must be made.
Occupations are often chosen to meet one`s emotional needs. Such things as a person`s need for acceptance, security, self-esteem or independence play in large role.
Choosing a career is not an easy task. There is much that yourself can do to reach your goal of finding the right vocation.

PRAZZER-Growth and Development of Ovule and Ovary


Angiosperms undergo double fertilization. Double fertilization produces a zygote and an endosperm. Afterwards, the ovule developes into a seed and an ovary into a fruit that protects the seed(s).
Growth and Development of Ovule
            The ovule grows and developes into a seed. The zygote and endosperm are in it. The zygote continues to grow and develops into an embryo.
Gowth and Development of endosperm
            The endosperm grows and develops earlier, compared to the embryo. The endosperm is rich in nutrients and it servers as food storage which is utilized for the growth and development of the embryo. In most monocotyledons,the nutrient reservers is put in the cotyledon before seed grows and developes further.
Gowth and Development of embryo
            Growth and development of the embryo is begun with zygotic cleavage by mitosis to produce basal and apical cells. Basal cells develop into a suspensor. The suspensor function as a connector between the embryo and the outer layer of the ovule. It also allows nutrients flow from the mother plant or the endosperm. Apical cells develop into a proembryo. This is followed by embryo`s development. In then develops a stem and roots.
Structure of mature seed

         During its maturation, the seed is dehydrated until water content is only about 5% to 15% of its weigth. Then, the embryo stop developing until the seed germinates. A mature seed contains an embryo that is surrounded by a cotyledon, or an endosperm, or both. The seed is protected by a seed coat (testa).
            Dicotyledon plants have two cotyledons. In their embryo`s development, epicotyls and hypocotyls ar formed. Epicotyls are located above the cotyledon. The tip of the epicotyls is called the plumule, which is foliage of leaves. Hypocotyls are located below the cotyledon. They end at the radical. Monocots have only a single cotyledon.in some monocots, the cotyledon is called a scutellum. It is thin and the endosperm suppresses where it is positioned. The scutellum absorbs nutrients from the endosperm during germination. The embryos of grass plants are surrounded by coleorhizae and coleoptiles. Coleorhizae protects the radical and the coleoptiles protects leaves and stem primordia  
Seed Germination


            Seeds will develop under the correct environmental conditions. But other seeds may become dormant which means that the seed stops growing and developing. A seed may become dormant when he environmental conditions do not support germination.
            When germination starts, seed dormancy end. The end of dormancy is marked by the entrance of water into the seed, a process called imbbition. This process induces enzymatic activities (biocatalysts that play a role in metabolism) so germination starts. After dormancy ends, the plant cells multiply in number by active division. However, newly formed cells are not differentiated yet. When te clump of cells reaches a certain cell mass, the plant starts the differentiation process.
            Differentiation is a process of adding distinct cell types and functions to the organism. Afterward, organs are formed by organogenesis. Organogenesis of many different shapes of organs to complete the structure and function of the organism is called development or morphogenesis.
            Seed can germinate because they have an embryo. There are 3 parts of an embryo: radical,cotyledon, and caulicle.

Radicle
(Embryonic Root)
Cotyledon
(Embryonic Leaf)
Caulicle
( Embryonic Stem)
           The radicle will grow and function into roots. The tip of radicle is facing toward the micropylar endosperm (seed canal). During germination, the root grows through this canal and ruptures the seed coat.
Cotyledon is the first structural leaf of the plant. It has several function :

Ø  As storage for food. It is thick, one side is usually curved and the other side is flat
Ø  A structur for photosynthesis
Ø  To absorb nutrient from endosperm, which form a thin layer called the shield shaped scutellum in monocots.
There are two parts of the caulicle: the epicotyl and hypocotyls.
Ø  Epicotyl is a stem segment above the cotyledon thet will grow into the stem and leaf.
Ø  Hypocotyl is a stem segment below the cotyledon that will grow to elongate into roots
   There are two types of germination based on the strating location: epigeal and hypogeal.
Epigeal germination
            Epigeal germination is marked by the up-lifting of the hypocotyls above the ground level. Cotyledon divides quickly to form leaves. This type of germination can be observed inmung bean plants( phaseolus radiatus)

Hypogeal germination
            Hypogeal germination is marked by the formation of a rudimentary stem that appears above ground level, while the cotyledon stays inside the soil ( hypocotyls stays underground). This process can be observed in pea plants (pisum sativum).
