GardenHeroes#3

I have noticed that my plant looks bigger and greener and it looks like it has bigger holes in its leaves. It does not look like it's ready to eat yet. The plant looks to be about 10 inches tall. Our plants participate in the movement of water in the biosphere by taking in water in its roots, which then sends the water to the plant's leaves and keeps it green and healthy. The plant stores water, but some of the water gets released back into the environment. My plant is helping with the carbon cycle because it does photosynthesis. It absorbs carbon and releases oxygen. My plants absorb nitrogen from dead and decaying matter that has enriched the soil. The plant uses this nitrogen to make proteins.
