Course content
The discipline "Plant Anatomy and Physiology" covers the internal structure of plants, cells, tissues and vegetative organs (stems, roots and leaves), their regularities, the relationship of internal structures with their functions, the formation of elements of the internal structure in ontogeny and in the process of plant evolution, the influence of environmental factors on them, as well as the integration of physiological functions at the level of the whole plant organism. As integrative sciences, plant anatomy and physiology use numerous classical and modern scientific and methodological approaches to understanding the basics of plant life.
