| Aim(s) of Course |
: |
The main aim of this course give basic information about morphology and anotomy of plant organs to students who are getting education deal with plant materials in different faculties and departement such as biology, pharmacy, agriculture, etc. Students will get ability external and internal structures of basic plant organs such as root, stem, leaves and reproductive organs. |
|
| Course Contents |
: |
During this course and laboratory period, students will examine the external and internal morphology of a typical representative of the Angiospermae (the flowering plants), the most prominent group of plants today. Students will become familiar with the various parts of the plant such as vegetative (roots, stems and leaves) and generative (flowers, seeds and fruits) organs.
