Natural Sciences 191CNS32 - FYS- Eat,Prey&Love/PlantKingdm

We are all surrounded by plants every day, the food we eat from our plates, the flowers in backyard and fruits in orchids. Let us look at plants in a revolutionary way and understand how they get nutrients, trap insects, compete with each other and have sex. In this seminar course, we will look into photosynthesis, plant toxins, carnivorous plants, flower colors and other plant related topics from a more scientific perspective. You will enjoy cool photos and videos, exciting research paper and a field trip to Durfee Conservatory in our learning journey!

Open to Natural Sciences Freshman with a declared major or on the Natural Sciences Exploratory Track.
