Plant Science

Plants are vital to so many areas of human lives: from our sense and enjoyment of beauty . . . to our very survival on this earth. In this meticulously researched module, students become amateur plant scientists as they explore the Kingdom Plantae through engaging computer presentations, plant experiments, and other lab activities. Plant Science also gives students an excellent introduction to significant scientific knowledge that students will encounter again in biology and chemistry.
