How do plants handle stress? How do they respond to their environment? How do they interact with other plants and organisms? In this class we’ll explore plant hormones, movements, ecology, and more. We’ll also take a walk outside to look at the adaptations plants make to better survive in their environment. Prerequisite: Beginning Botany
