| botany text book: Botany D. Thoday, 2015-11-19 Originally published in 1915, this textbook provides a comprehensive and readily understandable treatment of botany. Principally aimed at secondary school plant science students and botanists in preparation for examinations, the book assumes no prior scientific knowledge and identifies and describes the different types of plant communities and the biology behind how these communities flourish and thrive. The book is divided into six sections: 'The functions of plant organs', 'Form and structure', 'Reproduction', 'The classification of plants', 'Plants in relation to their environment' and 'Seedless plants'. Clearly written, self contained, detailed and replete with illustrations and photographs, this book will serve as an indispensable reference guide for those who are beginners in the subject but also as a trustworthy compendium for students, scholars and specialists, and will be of considerable value to anyone interested in horticulture, phycology and ecology. |
| botany text book: Exploring Creation with Botany Jeannie K. Fulbright, 2004 This book begins with a lesson on the nature of botany and the process of classifying plants. It then discusses the development of plants from seeds, the reproduction processes in plants, the way plants make their food, and how plants get their water and nutrients and distribute them throughout the body of the plant. As students study these topics, they also learn about many different kinds of plants in creation and where they belong in the plant classification system. The activities and projects use easy-to-find household items and truly make the lessons come alive! They include making a light hut in which to grow plants, dissection of a bean seed, growing seeds in plastic bags to watch the germination process, making a leaf skeleton, observing how plants grow towards light, measuring transpiration, forcing bulbs to grow out of season, and forcing pine cones to open and close. We recommend that you spend the entire school year covering this book. |

| botany text book: Botany: The Science of Plant Life Norman Taylor, 2022-09-16 In 'Botany: The Science of Plant Life,' Norman Taylor delivers a comprehensive exploration of botanical science, masterfully presented in a manner that engages both the scientific community and the lay reader. Through the book's articulate exposition and structured narrative, Taylor navigates the complexity of plant biology within a broader literary and scientific tradition. His literary style is characterized by clear, precise language that elucidates a sophisticated understanding of the subject matter, all the while situated within the larger legacy of botanical literature. Taylor's work serves as an essential primer, synthesizing a wealth of knowledge into a single volume that is as informative as it is accessible. Norman Taylor's vast experience and keen interest in plants are evident in every chapter. His background, potentially enriched by extensive research and observation, shines through in the meticulous attention to detail. Taylor's expertise likely informed his approach to demystifying the intricate processes underpinning plant life, which may well be predicated on a career dedicated to the sciences. The book is, therefore, a testament to Taylor's commitment to education and his passion for the natural world. 'Recommendations go here' |
