Plants in Action Lecture
Overview
Description
This course explores how plants are central to life on earth and the human condition. In addition to studying basic plant structure, physiology, and classification, students will study how plants are producers, converting energy from the sun into the energy of chemical bonds that are used by all organisms. They will study how plants are used to produce biofuels and as bioremediators to clean up pollutants. They will also examine how, through molecular and cellular biology, plants become biofactories to produce medicines. This course may be used as an elective within the Interdisciplinary Tier III Minor in Environmental Sustainability, or in the Tier III Minor in Natural Sciences.
