Ximena Larios
  My name is Ximena and I have lived in San Jose, California my entire life. I have gardened a few times with my dad, but nothing major. I planted bonsai trees. My dad also knows a lot about planting, he enjoys potting plants and even took a class on the subject, he is incredibly skilled with planting but recently he stopped due to time issues. I however wish to continue to plan stuff and due to this project felt very inspired to do so. Planting is very fun for me too!

Bio:  My name is Kate Kimball and I live in San Jose, California. In my old house we had a big backyard. So behind our pool, in a grass area, we had a little garden. We grew some tomatoes and strawberries. I remember it was hard because sometimes the plants wouldn't grow. But also fun because it was a family bonding experience. My aunt Lauren is a cook, so she knows a lot about growing food and preparing it. So we would make salads with homegrown tomatoes in it when she would come visit.

The plants participate in the water cycle due to the transportation of the water that originates in roots but then travels up to the top of the plant /leaves. I think that d ue to the actual plant and the type it didn ' t have the proper cells to fully transport the water to the leaves because the actual roots are long er. The plants trap in or us e the carbon in order to feed and b e s elf-s ustaining . Thes e plants  use up th e carbon to create sugar for thems elv es and to move along the process of photosynthesis . Once th is process is done the carbon is once again recycled into the atmosphere.  N itrogen helps our plants have the proper amount of energy requ
