An introduction to vascular plant taxonomy and biodiversity using the local flora. This course emphasizes field identification of plants using scientific and local names. Students are introduced to morphology through the use of taxonomic characteristics in field guides and keys. Characteristics of the most abundant families of local plants are presented. Cannot be counted toward biology major. Offered most summer sessions, either on campus or at our Northwoods campus in Hiawatha National Forest in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.
-
4.00 Credits
A concept oriented approach to the basics of biology emphasizing both the unity and diversity of life.
