What is Greenhouse Biology?
In this class, we will understand the basic cellular makeup of plants, study the processes that ensure their survival and reproduction, general adaptions found in the different groups of plants, as well as the interaction of plants in the environment. We will study many of the concepts covered in Biology I, but with a special emphasis on plants.
