Outline |
|
Plant physiology is a basic field of plant science, and it concerns wide range of view from molecular level to individual level.
This course covers the followings:
1. Major biological characteristics of plants are compared with those of the other kinds of living things.
2. Basic knowledge about photosynthesis and plant metabolism should be obtained.
4. Control of plant growth, development and transport of water and hormone should be understood.
The aim of this course is to help students acquire the DP1 and DP2 related knowledge, technique and performance. Students will carry out fieldwork for identification of leaf development and photomorphogenesis, and they are required to report about it.

Objectives |
|
At the end of the course, participants are expected to
(1) Explain the major characteristics and function of plants in comparison with those of animals and microorganisms.
(2) Construct the academic basis of plant science that should be applied sciences such as agriculture, forestry, pharmacy, and environmental biology.
(3) Relate the basic knowledge obtained in the lecture and outdoor observation in the field work.

| ３． |
Grading Policy |
|
Your final grade will be calculated according to the following process: Reports (30%) and term-end examination (70%). In each class, a test will be conducted to review the lecture. Reports will be returned and important points will be summarized in the class.

|
| ５． |
Requirements (Assignments) |
|
(1) Students are expected to read the corresponding sections of the textbook and write down keywords
(2) Student should report some tasks that will be issued.
(3) Students should review the key points of each class on the notebook and prepare for each test using Mobile-MARS, although the score will not be included to the final grading. (60 min)
