Banana plantsBanana plants growing on a plantation. Each herbaceous trunk bears only one bunch of fruit and is cut down after harvest to encourage new growth from the rhizome (underground stem)
The banana plant is a gigantic herb that springs from an underground stem, or rhizome, to form a false trunk 3–6 metres (10–20 feet) high. This trunk is composed of the basal portions of leaf sheaths and is crowned with a rosette of 10 to 20 oblong to elliptic leaves that sometimes attain a length of 3–3.5 metres (10–11.5 feet) and a breadth of 65 cm (26 inches). A large flower spike, carrying numerous yellowish flowers protected by large purple-red bracts, emerges at the top of the false trunk and bends downward to become bunches of 50 to 150 individual fruits, or fingers. The individual fruits, or bananas, are grouped in clusters, or hands, of 10 to 20. After a plant has fruited, it is cut down to the ground, because each trunk produces only one bunch of fruit. The dead trunk is replaced by others in the form of suckers, or shoots, which arise from the rhizome at roughly six-month intervals. The life of a single rhizome thus continues for many years, and the weaker suckers that it sends up through the soil are periodically pruned, while the stronger ones are allowed to grow into fruit-producing plants.

In movies, T. rex always has a ferocious roar. Did it in real life too? No one knows for sure. But scientists can study the closest living relatives of T. rex , crocodiles and birds, for clues. And a giant animal like T. rex would have made lower-pitched sounds than smaller animals. So scientists study large living animals for clues too!
Lions have the loudest roar of all the big cats. The roar is so loud it can be heard up to 5 miles away and reaches 114 decibels (at a distance of around one meter). To put that into perspective, the human pain threshold is at around 110 decibels. So, standing too close to a roaring lion could not only send shivers down your spine but also be physically painful.
Roar is a 2014 Indian Hindi-language adventure thriller film written and directed by Kamal Sadanah. The film premiered at an event in Mumbai on 31 July 2014, ahead of its 31 October release. It follows the epic tale of a team trying to outsmart the acute senses of the infamous white tiger who is looking for her cub.[1][2][3][4][5][6]
I am planning to get one of these Create Your Own Dolls. I need help deciding on which one. l always wanted a light skin Addy mold, but I also love the pink hair with the classic face mold too! I am so happy they added the holiday dress since I was going to buy it and it helps me justify the cost 😆
Gone are the days when visiting a café was only restricted to a cup of coffee and conversations. Thanks to the growing popularity of the gig economy and ‘café culture’; a visit to a coffee house goes beyond leisure reasons today. Now, people sitting at a work-friendly coffee shop with their laptops is a fairly common sight.
