This course on botany aims to help learners understand the fundamental concepts of plant biology, including plant cells, tissues, anatomy, growth mechanisms, and pigments. The course covers plant classification, from vascular to nonvascular plants, and explores the diversity of plant life cycles. Students will also learn about plant responses to the environment, photosynthesis types, and the principles and applications of dendrochronology. The teaching method involves a series of lectures and discussions. This course is designed for individuals interested in gaining knowledge about plants and their biological systems.
