Term	Definition
ACID	Refers to medium or nutrient solution with a low pH; an acidic solution has a pH below 7.

ALKALINE	Refers to medium or nutrient solution with a high pH; any pH over 7 is considered alkaline.

ALLELE	Different forms of the same gene; allele "A" may produce a tall plant, while allele "a" gives a short plant.

ANTHER	The part at the top of the male flower that produces the pollen.

AQUAPONICS	The integration of aquaculture (the raising of marine animals, such as fish) with hydroponics; the waste products from the fish are treated and then used to fertilize hydroponically growing plants.
