- The scientific study of plants
Branches of Botany
Plant Morphology:
- The study of the physical form and external structure of plants
Plant Anatomy:
- The study of the internal plant structure
Histology:
- The study of cells and tissues with the help of a microscope
Cytology:
- Detailed study of the cells including structure, function of different cell
organelles, nucleus, and cell inclusions.
Plant Physiology:
- The study of various vital activities of the plant e.g., photosynthesis, respiration,
transpiration
Plant Taxonomy:
- The science of classifying and naming plants
Ecology:
- The study of the relationships between living organisms, including humans, and
their physical environment
Genetics:
- The study of heredity and variations.
Plant Breeding:
- The branch of botany deals with the development of improved varieties of
plants.
Plant Embryology:
- The study of the development of sporangia, gametophytes, and embryos in the
land plants, the embryophytes
