What is the scientific name for the petite marigold?
Trust the prof.
Petite Marigold aka French Marigold
Family: Asteraceae (as-ter-AY-see-ay) (Info)
Genus: Tagetes (TAG-e-teez) (Info)
Species: patula (PAT-yoo-luh) (Info)
Reply:Tagetes patula
Reply:petite marigold is a french marigold.
Scientific classification
Kingdom: Plantae
Division: Magnoliophyta
Class: Magnoliopsida
Order: Asterales
Family: Asteraceae
Genus: Tagetes
L.
Species
About 59, including:
Tagetes erecta
Tagetes filifolia
Tagetes lacera
Tagetes lucida
Tagetes minuta
Tagetes patula
Tagetes tenuifolia
as well as numerous hybrids
Tagetes is a genus of about 60 species of annual and perennial herbaceous plants in the daisy family (Asteraceae). They are native to the area stretching from the southwestern United States into Mexico and south throughout South America.
They are known almost universally in North America as Marigold (not to be confused with the genus Calendula, which goes by the same name in some areas), or variously as Mexican marigolds (or cempasē ¤chil), African marigolds (usually referring to cultivars and hybrids of T. erecta, although this species is not native to Africa), or French marigolds (usually referring to hybrids and cultivars of T. patula, many of which were developed in France although the species is not native to that country). At least one species is a naturalized weed in Africa, Hawaii, and Australia.
The different species vary in size from 0.05-2.2 m tall. They have pinnate green leaves, and white, golden, orange, yellow, to an almost red floral heads typically (0.1-) to 4-6 cm diameter, generally with both ray florets and disc florets.
The foliage has a musky/pungent scent, though some later varieties have been bred to be scentless. It is said to deter some common insect pests (although it is recorded as a food plant for some Lepidoptera larvae including Dot Moth), as well as nematodes. Tagetes are hence often used in companion planting. T. minuta (Khakibush), originally from South America, has been used as a source of essential oil, known as tagette, for the perfume industry as well as a flavourant in the food and tobacco industries in South Africa, where the species is also a useful pioneer plant in the reclamation of disturbed land. Some of the perennial species are deer, rabbit, rodent and javalina resistant.
The common name, "marigold", is derived from "Mary's Gold", and the plant is associated with the Virgin Mary in Christian stories.

lol leela its rubay lmfao! haha i found u in the internet! hahhaaha so weird lmao nywayz i think it is a monocot....... sientific name not so sure :P
Reply:Did you mean Ramalina? There's a lichen (not a plant, so not a monocot or a dicot) called Ramalina farinacea, or powdery ramalina, and another species Ramalina pollinaria, or powdery twig lichen

What is the scientific name for a broken bone ?

What is the scientific name for a broken bone ?
I think it's just refered to as a bone fracture.
Reply:Fracture.
Reply:fracture
Reply:A broken or cracked bone is known as a fracture. Fractures can affect any bone in the body.
Bones can fracture in a number of different ways. A fracture may be a straight break across the bone (transverse fracture), slanting (oblique fracture) or winding (spiral fracture). The break may run along the shaft of the bone (longitudinal fracture), or the bone may be shattered into pieces (comminuted fracture). Young bone is softer and more able to bend than adult bone, so children's bones often fracture on one side but bend on the other. This is known as a greenstick fracture.
An avulsion fracture is when a piece of bone detaches from the main bone, usually because of being torn away by the tendon that attaches a muscle to a bone. A fracture in which the bone collapses is called a compression fracture. Compression fractures usually affect the spongy bone found in the spine.
A fracture in which the skin around the bone has not been broken is called a simple or closed fracture. If the ends of the bone break through the skin, or there is a wound that leads to the fractured bone, it is called a compound or open fracture. In a compound fracture the bone is open to infection, so this type of fracture is more serious.
A complicated fracture is one in which there is injury to other nearby structures, such as major blood vessels and nerves. A fracture-dislocation occurs when a joint becomes dislocated and there is also a fracture of one of the bones of the joint.
After a fracture, the broken fragments of bone normally separate from each other. However, sometimes one fragment of bone can be driven into another. This is known as an impacted fracture.

Reply:fracture
Reply:It is called a fracture. These are divided into a number of types.
Simple- one break skin closed
Compound- a break where the skin is broken
Comminuted- where the bone is broken in to more than 2 pieces
Complex-with severe soft tissue damage
Compressed-usually a crush due to impact
Greenstick- in the young where the bone partially cracks, like a green twig
Reply:A broken bone is generally known as a fracture.
There are two different types.
normal fracture:
Where the bone breaks and remains in situ (the broken parts remain in the body)
OR, if you're really unlucky!
Compound fracture:
Where the bone breaks and protrudes through the skin!
ewwww!
Reply:The Scientific name for a broken bone is called a"fracture" and there are many types like :-
Compound fracture (this where the skin breaks due to injury and the broken bone is exposed)
Transverse fracture (this where the bone has broken in a straight line across its width)
Spiral fracture (this is where the limb has twisted like in a skiing accident and the shaft of the bone has broken in a spiral fashion)
Greenstick fracture (this type of fracture is generally found in children, their bones tend to bend with alto more ease than adults so when this fracture occurs it is incomplete and is usually broken on the one side of the bone)
Buckle fracture (this fracture is again only found in children as the covering of the bone "periostium" is thicker in a child than an adult the bone creases and looks like a buckle on an X-ray).
There are many more types but i have only listed the most common, i hope this helps.

Scientific name?
what is the scientific name for a: sponge,cnidarian,echinoderms, flatworm,roundworm,annelid,mollusk,arthr... and mammals
Scientific name?
omfg! i just learned this in science!! cnidarian is a scientific name. the only thing i can remember in it is jelly fish. the scientific name for flatworm is platyhelminthes. there is an easy way where you can remember that; platy-flaty. lol. my science teacher came up with that. and mammals i think is mammalia. thats all i can remember. i left my science note book at school and it has all the names and everything. really sorry but i helped you out as best as i could
Reply:Sounds like you want the Phylum for each of the ones you have mentioned above. Scientific names are for specific things...ie. bobcat has the scientific name of Lynx rufus. Mammals are in the Class Mammalia and in the Phylum Chordata (means having backbone). Phylum Platyhelminthes (Flatworms), Phylum Porifera (Sponges), Phylum Mollusca (Mollusks), Phylum Annelida (Segmented Worms), and Phylum Echinodermata (Echinoderms).

Scientific name???
hi i am in 7th grade and i am doing this weird worksheet on a redtailed fox, the animal i picked to research for science class. um i cannot find its scientific name!!! help??!!?! do you no it or can u find it???!?!
Scientific name???
I think this is called the red fox (not redtailed fox ... perhaps you are getting confused with the red-tailed hawk).
The scientific name Vulpes vulpes. (Incidentally, it is traditional to capitalize the genus name and non-cap the species name ... specifically for cases like this where they are both the same. The abbreviation is V. vulpes.)
There are *many* subspecies of the red fox.
Here's a great place to *start* your research:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_fox
But don't just copy, or rely on, wikipedia (or any encyclopedia). Teachers are onto that.
