This class is aimed at people interested in understanding the basic science of plant biology. In this four lecture series, we'll first learn about the structure-function of plants and of plant cells. Then we'll try to understand how plants grow and develop, making such complex structures as flowers. Once we know how plants grow and develop, we'll then delve into understanding photosynthesis - how plants take carbon dioxide from the air and water from soil, and turn this into oxygen for us to breathe

TOP REVIEWS FROM UNDERSTANDING PLANTS - PART II: FUNDAMENTALS OF PLANT BIOLOGY
Great introductionary course for basics of Plants Biology. The other Course course from Dean Chamovitz - "What a Plant Knows" is much more interesting, is has 70% of the same knowledge.
A must learn course to hone your understaning in plant biology. The Course is well explained and viusualized by the Instuctor.Also focuses on the current research findings in the genetic engineering.
good but the quiz which is being given after every session should be more improved and they should show the correct answer so that we could learn our mistake
Course was incredibly excellent.i understood basic concepts of plants clearly.thank to all the tutors and the tutorial you have provided.such an enrichinh experience.
