Poaceae mainly by cis-3-Hexenal. Some common aphorisms involve grass. For example: A folk myth about grass is that it refuses to grow where any violent death has occurred. Poaceae Poaceae () or Gramineae is a large and nearly ubiquitous family of monocotyledonous flowering plants known as grasses, commonly referred to collectively as grass. Poaceae includes the cereal grasses, bamboos and the grasses of natural grassland and cultivated lawns and pasture. Grasses have stems that are hollow except at the nodes and narrow alternate leaves borne in two ranks. The lower part of each leaf encloses the stem, forming a leaf-sheath. With
Smallest organisms were first described in 1996 by Philippa Uwins of the University of Queensland. Smallest organisms The smallest organisms found on Earth can be determined according to various aspects of organism size; including volume, mass, height, length, or genome size. Given the incomplete nature of scientific knowledge, it is possible that the smallest organism is undiscovered. Furthermore, there is some debate over the definition of life, and what entities qualify as organisms; consequently the smallest known organism (microorganism) is debatable. Many biologists consider viruses to be non-living because they lack a cellular structure and cannot metabolize by themselves, requiring a host
