Laboratory 31 and 32. Plant Anatomy and
Physiology
   
Labs 31 and 32 are the last labs in the plant half of the
semester. You will continue to study more of the characteristics of
plants, focusing on anatomy and physiology. You will spend
time discussing the root system, the shoot system and morphology and
classification of leaves. An emphasis will be placed on the functions of
all features.
