Goals Informing about cytology (cell science) by describing structure, functions and structure of plant cell and cell wall and histology (tissue biology) by describing of plant tissues, types, tasks and characteristics and to teach morphological and anatomical features of root, stem, leaf, flower, fruit and seed by explaining plant organs (organography).
Course Content Informing about cytology (cell science) by describing structure, functions and structure of plant cell and cell wall and histology (tissue biology) by describing of plant tissues, types, tasks and characteristics and to teach morphological and anatomical features of root, stem, leaf, flower, fruit and seed by explaining plant organs (organography).
Learning Outcomes 1) Gains knowledge about plant cells and tissues
2) Gains knowledge about root, stem and leaf differences between seed plants.
3) Have knowledge about plant systematics
4) Learn about reproduction in plants
