"STUDY WHILE OTHERS ARE SLEEPING; WORK WHILE OTHERS ARE LOAFING; PREPARE WHILE OTHERS ARE PLAYING; AND DREAM WHILE OTHERS ARE WISHING."

BELAJARLAH SAAT ORANG LAIN TIDUR, BEKERJALAH SAAT ORANG LAIN BERMALAS-MALASAN, BERSIAP-SIAPLAH SAAT ORANG LAIN BERMAIN, DAN BERMIMPILAH SAAT ORANG LAIN BERHARAP.

Rice Plant

Rice plant is plant that produces an edible grain; the name is also used for the grain itself. Rice is the primary food for half the people in the world. In many regions, it is eaten with every meal and provides more calories than any other single food.

According to the united nations Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO), rice supplies an average of 889 calories per day per person in china. In contrast, rice provides an average of only 82 calories per day per person in the United States. Rice is a nutritious food, providing about 90 percent of calories from carbohydrates and as much as 13 percent of calories from protein.

Mangrove Trees

A mangrove is a tropical maritime tree or shurb of the genus Rizophora. mangrove have special aerial roots and salt-filtering tap roots that enable them to thrive in brackish water (brackish water is salty, but not as salty as sea water).
There are several species of mangrove trees found all over the large fresh water source (such as a river). some prefer areas that are sheltered from waves. some species have their roots covered with sea water everyday during high tide. others are more sensitive to salinity, and grow closer to the shore. other species grow on dry land, but are still part of the ecosystem.
Mangroves need to keep their trunk and leaves above the water line. yet they also need to be firmly attached to the ground so they are not moved by waters.
