ruit, and uses for this tree was need. The following steps were done to make this descriptive biography of the Q. pinus.
             To form the most accurate and complete description of the Quercus pinus, a series of steps were taken. The tree height and circumference was found by using a tape measure. Using the shadow of the tree, my colleague and I measured from the base of the tree to were the shadow of the tree stopped. After finding the height, the circumference was found by taking a measurement completely around the tree. This measurement was then converted from feet into inches. The circumference was also used as the age of the tree.
             A sketch and/or description of the bark, twigs, fruit, shade and sun leaves, and buds were noted for their patterns and shapes. By way of a clear nail polish, a pressed leaf, both sun and shade was casted on the abaxial and adoxial sides to find the difference in stomata counts. These leaves were dried, and the nail polish was lifted by tape and placed on a slide to be examined through the electron microscope. Five different sections were counted with 400X power. A count was also taken for the epidermal cells to stomata. Along with examining the stomata counts, a transdermal section was done by taking a razor blade and slicing a small layer from the top surface of the leaves. The layer was then placed on a slide and water was added to observe the sections of the leaves through the electron microscope. A cross section was then made by slicing a thin layer off the margin of the leaf with a razor blade. Water was added to the slide along with the slice and observed again under the microscope. The pubescene was noted in the shade leaf.
             A chromatography was done on the sun and shade leaf. The chromatography shows the pigments of each plant. Each leaf was rubbed on a chromatography strip twelve times with a dime until a clear color was shown on the paper. The paper was put into a vial of 10mL of chr...
