A plant grows by taking in carbon dioxide from the air and water, as well as nutrients from the soil. Using light energy from the sun, a plant turns these simple materials into more complex organic molecules that add to its increasing size. Plant Development explores this natural process, from the plant as a single cell to a mature organism, giving students a reference point for their understanding of the complex changes in both form and function of a plant’s...

A plant grows by taking in carbon dioxide from the air and water, as well as nutrients from the soil. Using light energy from the sun, a plant turns these simple materials into more complex organic molecules that add to its increasing size. Plant Development explores this natural process, from the plant as a single cell to a mature organism, giving students a reference point for their understanding of the complex changes in both form and function of a plant’s development. This is a valuable tool for students and teachers of plant biology.
