Botany Laboratory. Exercises related to the program carried out in the classroom during the frontal lessons. In particular exercises will be carried out on the following topics: Cells - cellular organelles, Primary and secondary tissues, Organs (roots, stem, leaves), Flowers and Fruits, Recognition of the main groups of plant organisms (cyanobacteria, algae, lichens, mosses, pteridophytes, gymnosperms, angiosperms), herbarium preparation procedures.

Protocols adopted during the practice exercises
