ENR2425 | Plants and Environments | 3 ch (3C 3L) |
---|---|---|
Students learn to identify plants using keys and to recognize assorted plants of forests, fields meadows and wetlands. They learn the requirements for growth, development and persistence mechanisms of assorted plants. They also learn to analyse vegetation in relation to site condition and to evaluate interrelationships among components of vegetation over time, including responses to perturbation or to interventions of various kinds. Prerequisite: A basic university course in Biology (e.g. BIOL 1001) or Botany. NOTE: This course parallels FOR 2425 for the first 8 weeks of term and is completed at the end of the 8th week. Thus it is assigned fewer credits than for FOR 2425. |
