A tangerine in a sock usually.

Depends on the ingredient.  Usual procedure is to chop the plant in a blender and extract the active principle with a suitable solvent, and then refine the extract with fractional crystallization, distillation, or other such means.

During germination the materials in a seed have to be changed into chemicals (nutrients) that be used immediately or transported to where they are needed.\nMost seeds store their carbohydrates as starch. This has to be changed into glucose.\nThis is controlled and catalysed by special protein molecules called...\n(Clue: in your gut, what changes starch into sugars?)

The biggest difference is the cellulose wall that is present on all plant cells but not on animal cells.

It is not possible to give an equation for the chemical reactions because you are not working with atoms and chemicals that we know what exactly is in them. \nWhen you beat the heavy cream, you could over beat and get butter. \nWhen you beat the egg whites you denature the protein(albumen) so that it is no longer soluble. This is aided by the acid of the cream of tartar(tartaric acid)\nToasting almonds wnen they turn color is a chemical reaction. The color change is a combination of sugar and protein.

Citrus fruits like lemons, grapefruits, oranges, tangarines have CITRIC ACID and some amount of ascorbic acid in them. \n\n  The acid though is a healthy and organic nutritional element. For instance: ascorbic acid is vitamin c,  The citric acid fruits are the most detoxifying fruits and excellent foods.

I won't do your homework for you, but I will give you a few hints.\n\nThe first hint is that ddnight is talkin' smack. This has nothing to do with atmosoheric composition.\n\nThe second hint is that you should be looking very varefully at the relative effect of C4 and CAM utilisation on water LOSS. Underline the word 'loss".\n\n--------------------\n>>>CAM plants and C4's do better in higher temps than C3's.\n\nGenerally yes. But the question is why the plants died in that order. Begonia are tropical plants, so a temperature would not have killed it, and the pineapple is both tropical nad C4, sdo temperature effects can't be at play directly.\n\nOnly one plausible explanation remains.

Marmalade is sometimes described as jam with fruit peel.

i've grown many citrus from seed-the thing is with hybrids, like tangelo you may not get the same plant as it is a cross. the other thing is that depending on the type it could take 3 to 20 years before it will fruit! Growers usually make cuttings from adult plants to get more of the same plant-they will bear fruit within the year, sometimes right away.\nYou can start with a 4inch pot with a drainage soil with good light potting or seeding soil, plant the seed just below the soil (one time its size). water it, preferably with a fungicide and cover with plastic wrap and place in a warm and sunny window ledge (never leave water in the tray!). As soon as you see some green take off the plastic. Let the soil dry out half way for the first month and a bit more as it gets older. You will also want to add a pinch of aluminum sulfate (an acidifier) on the soil surface every 6 months to acidify the soil as it is essential for citrus to grow well (for a gallon pot use 1 teaspoon). Wait a while before potting on as it must be tight in its pot and then only a couple of inches bigger than the last-this will be no sooner than about 6 months. Remember the more sun the better even outdoors, water when 3/4 dry and acidify the soil.

The variety of plant life is astonishing, and studying it could lead to many different areas.  Botany is the science covering the study of the biology of plants.  Biochemistry would be the chemical reactions occurring in living organisms.\n\nGermination is the term used to describe the emergence of the plant from its seed.  It is controlled by chemical processes that allow the seed to determine when is the best time to emerge.   Moisture, temperature, light and darkness and other conditions control seed germination.\n\nPlant physiology is the study of the life processes of plants.\n\nThe molecule that carries the code of the plant, is known as DNA.\n\nHere are two links to start your exploration of this wondrous, awe-inspiring subject.

Ripening is a process in fruit that causes them to become more edible. In general, fruits become sweeter, less acidic, less green, and softer as they ripen.\n\nStages of a plant's life are influenced by hormones. An important plant hormone involved with ripening is the chemical ethylene, a gas created by plants from the amino acid methionine. Ethylene causes increased levels of certain enzymes in fruit, which include:\n\n    * Amylase, which breaks down starch to produce simple sugars, and\n    * Pectin's, which breaks down pectin, a substance that keeps fruit hard.\n\nOther enzymes break down the lime pigment chlorophyll, which is replaced by blue, yellow, or red pigments.\n\nHormone levels in fruit are often connected to pollination. If too few seeds in a multifaceted fruit are formed (by fertilisation of the ovules), the flesh of the fruit may not develop in some areas, and ripening will be retarded or prevented. Fruit growers increasingly monitor seed ratios in developing and/or mature fruit and adjust pollination management accordingly.\n\nMany fruits are picked prior to full ripening because ripened fruits do not ship well. For example, bananas are picked when green and artificially ripened after shipment by gassing them with ethylene. It is also possible to speed ripening at home by placing unripe fruit in a bag with an apple, which will give off natural ethylene gas.

There is the natural way.  Eat fruit, and veggies, leaving on the peel. Then are products like Metamucil, Citricil.  Frosted Mini Wheats are a good source of fiber.

No, that isn't a quetsion at all. It's a sentence fragment.\n\nWhat exactly is the question? Do you wnat to know if there are esters in fruit, are the names of esters in fruit, or how to extract esters in fruit, or how to put esters in fruit?
