SUMMARY:Lunchtime Discovery: The Secret Lives of Plants
DESCRIPTION:Lauren Maynard\, PhD Candidate\, Virginia Tech \nHow do plants balance their complex and conflicting relationships with other organisms? They use chemistry! By pairing analytical chemistry and animal behavior\, we can peek into the secret lives of plants. Join Lauren to discover how plants use chemistry to interact with bats\, bugs\, birds\, and blight. We’ll learn how plants balance the opposing pressures of fruit defense and seed dispersal\, and explore how plants sound the alarm on bugs to alert their feathered and furry friends. \nJoin us on YouTube! \n\nLive Virtual Presentation hosted by NC Museum of Natural Sciences’ SECU Daily Planet Curator Chris Smith and the NC Department of Environmental Quality Office of Environmental Education and Public Affairs staff. \nYou can post questions in the YouTube chat or tweet questions to #LunchTimeDiscovery and mention @NorthCarolinaEE. \nBrought to you by the NC DEQ Office of Environmental Education and Public Affairs and the NC Museum of Natural Sciences.
