    Anatomy of Vascular Plants explores the internal structures of higher plants. This course examines the structural organization of higher plants at all levels of organization -- from the subcellular, to cellular, to tissue, to organism level--- and pays close attention to how structure begets function from the subcellular to the ecological level. Additionally, students will learn different technical methods and equipment used to study plants' internal structures. Prerequisite:    BTNY 2104 and BTNY 2114 and BTNY 2121 and BTNY 2600 and CHEM 2600 and GEO 2600 and MICR 2600 and PHYS 2600

    An introduction to the fundamental principles of soil science. Chemical, physical, geological, and biological properties of soils; Course will examine the role of soils as a fundamental ecological constraint through space and time on patterns and processes, such as plant distribution, nutrient cycling, and cycling of water between terrestrial ecosystems and the atmosphere. Course will also examine the human dimensions of soils as a natural resource, and the historical and current environmental impact of soil use and management.
