    It is a short-day plant and tends to flower and bear fruit earlier in spring than most native species and this allows it to grow better with little to no competition (Huebner et al., 2006; Axtell et al., 2010; Kertabad et al., 2013). When lesser celandine grows, it tends to form in patches of green marsh that inhibit the growth of native plant species and shortly after these green marshes form it drops green sepals exposing bright yellow flowers (Axtell et al., 2010; Kertabad et al., 2013). The flowering process of lesser celandine is controlled by a few indication variables such as; water availability, light reception, and temperature (Axtell et al., 2010). It is an unusual plant when it comes to reproduction as it is a dicotyledon, but it only produces monocotyledon seedlings (Kertabad et al., 2013).

  • Solitary Confinement Benefits

    353 Words  | 2 Pages

    In my honest opinion solitary confinement in the U.S. is not justified and only does more harm than good. Not only is it a rash punishment, but it is one of the worst kinds of psychological tortures that could be inflicted upon an inmate. Human beings are undoubtedly social creatures and without the mere contact of another person the mind decays and ultimately leads a person to anger, anxiety, and hopelessness. Psychologists also claim that solitary confinement and isolation in general also cause depression or the loss of ability to have any "feelings", cognitive disturbances, such as confused thought processes and disorientation, perceptual distortions, such as hypersensitivity to noises and smells, distortions of sensations, and hallucinations affecting all five senses, as well as paranoia and psychosis which often times involve schizophrenic type symptoms, and finally, the worst of all symptoms, being self-harm such as self-mutilation, cutting and even suicide attempts.
