plants

Plants are organisms that use sunlight to produce carbohydrates. Plants provide many benefits, including producing oxygen, maintaining ecological balance, and producing food and medicine. 








Why are plants necessary for life?


Plants are necessary for life to:

Produce oxygen

Absorb carbon dioxide

Produce food (photosynthesis)

Maintain the water cycle

Prevent soil erosion

Provide shade and shelter for living things 


Is there an invisible side to plants?



Yes, the side of plants that we cannot see is the underground part (roots). The roots of plants grow in the soil and absorb water and minerals. 


The underground part of plants (roots)


The roots of plants are the underground part of the plant. These grow in the soil and absorb the water and minerals that the plant needs.  Main functions of roots:


1. Absorption of water and minerals: The roots absorb water and minerals from the soil and carry them to other parts of the plant.


2. Stabilization of the plant: The roots stabilize the plant in the soil, thus protecting the plant from falling.


3. Storage of nutrients: The roots of some plants store nutrients (e.g., arapola, beet).


4. Production of hormones: The hormones produced by the roots help the plant grow.


Since the roots of plants are not visible, we often forget their importance. 


What are the disadvantages of plants if they become scarce? 

Disadvantages of plants if they become scarce:


1. Lack of oxygen: Plants produce oxygen through photosynthesis. If plants are scarce, oxygen becomes scarce.


2. Increase in carbon dioxide: Plants absorb carbon dioxide. If plants are scarce, carbon dioxide increases, causing global warming.


3. Disruption of the water cycle: Plants contribute to the water cycle.  If plants are scarce, the water cycle is disrupted.

4. Food shortage for living things: Plants provide food for living things. If plants are scarce, living things become food shortages.

5. Disruption of ecological balance: Plants help maintain ecological balance. If plants are scarce, ecological balance is disrupted. 


Works and other artistic creations created about plants .. 


There are dramas about plants. Some scholars speculate that the origin of Sanskrit drama is through the conversational hymns in the Rig Veda ¹.

NIRWANA

 What is Nirvana? What kind of Nirvana is it?  If someone were to ask you a question, what would you answer, my dear? Nirvana (Nirvana) is the highest state of mind desired by Buddhists. Simply put, it is the end of all suffering and ultimate freedom. Rather than going somewhere, Nirvana is a state of mind that results from the cessation of defilements, and it is considered the highest state of mind to be pursued by Buddhists. Nirvana is the cessation of one's lust, hatred, and delusion. This can be confirmed by any of the teachings of the Tripitaka on Nirvana. Craving and attachment to material pleasures can be called lust.  The desire to grasp and hold on to forms, sounds, smells, tastes, touches, and objects that constantly arise and exist in these sense organs of the eye, ear, nose, tongue, body, and mind, and the strong interest shown in obtaining them again and again can be called lust or lust. The dislike or anger shown towards something or someone that one does no...

ME AND DRAMA

Image
I am Tharushi Imalsha. I am a student at the University of Fine Arts. My favorite thing to do in life and my passion is drama and theater. My hope is to continue in that field. My talent was introduced to me by the drama teacher at that school at that time, and I went beyond that and started watching dramas and attending drama workshops. As a result of that, I was invited to appear in a stage play at the Thespian Theater in Kuruwita, Ratnapura. I was mentored and given that opportunity by my teacher, Maduranga Weerasinghe, a former student of the University of Fine Arts. The first stage play I acted in in this life was Chamila Priyanka's Oyai Maai Taaniyama.  That was three years ago. That was the day that made a strange change in my theatrical life. That was the day that added great value to my life. My partner and I studied the play for days and weeks very deeply and turned it into a performance, and we received a great value from the audience who came to watch us.  That da...
