Biology: The Dynamic Science 5
About 200 years ago, Jan Baptista van Helmont tried to determine the source of raw materials for plant growth. To do so, he planted a young tree weighing 5 pounds in a barrel filled with 200 pounds of soil. He watered the tree regularly. After 5 years, he again weighed the tree and the soil. At the s
