Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Botany, Principles and Problems The present volume, an outgrowth Of experience in presenting to college freshmen a course in elementary botany, endeavors to set forth somewhat briefly and concisely the more important facts concerning the morphology, physiology and classification of plants, and to provide a body Of problem material which may be of assistance in stimulating thought and in promoting class discussion. The consideration of structure and function in the earlier portions of the book is confined mainly to the seed plants, and the distinctive characteristics Of the other members of the plant kingdom are discussed in the last five chapters. Should the course be too brief to take up these groups in detail, Chapter XIII, which deals with the main events in the history of the plant kingdom and the important features of its various divisions, may perhaps be used to give the student an idea of the kingdom as a whole. In view Of the importance of the soil in the life Of plants, and in order to emphasize the fact that living things cannot be understood without a knowledge of their environment, an early chapter is devoted entirely to the soil itself. The increased interest in matters pertaining to inheritance has war ranted a special chapter on heredity and variation; and a chapter is also devoted to organic evolution, emphasizing its botanical aspects. The chapters have been so written as to be separately understandable and may readily be taken up in some other order than that in which thev are here presented. The text is not primarily designed for agricultural students but many of the questions naturally involve a practical application of botanical principles and will perhaps commend themselves especially to those whose interest in botany is chiefly agricultural.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fundamentals of Botany From the standpoint of pure science, the most funda mental problem of botany is that of the development of the individual plant; the ultimate problem that of the development of the kingdom of plants. In other words the foundation and the ultimate goal are, respectively, ontogeny (life-history of the individual) and phylogeny (life - history of the race). Ontogeny is fundamental because without a knowledge of its processes the processes of phylogeny cannot be com prehended. Phylogeny is the ultimate problem because its complete solution involves an orderly description of all the phenomena of plant life, and their relation to each other. Thanks to the nature-study movement, most students have nowadays acquired some knowledge of the parts and a few of the functions of a flowering plant before they take up the study of formal botany; for such, Chapter II will serve only as a timely review; for others, as an essential preparation for the subsequent chapters of Part I.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Guide to the Study of Common Plants: An Introduction to Botany In the second edition, prepared in response to helpful suggestions from many teachers, a glossary and index, together with a chapter on fungi, have been added and several minor changes introduced. The arrangement re mains substantially as before, but teachers who prefer to start with the simpler forms and proceed to the more highly developed ones can readily do so by beginning with the section on algae, instead of following the order of the book. To those who approach the work in a scientific spirit, it is superfluous to say that the student's intellectual life has a developmental history which it is quite as need ful to take into account as the genetic succession of plants. There can hardly be more interesting problems than those presented to the teacher in his relation to this higher realm of biological science.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Introduction to Botany The order of treatment here adopted is first to give a general notion of the world-wide distribution and importance Of plants; then to enable the pupil to see the whole plant as a working machine; then to discuss more in detail the structure and work Of the higher plants, each region of which performs a definite part Of the work of the whole machine; then very briefly to present a general view of the great groups. Although through out the book the plants used as the basis Of study are usually those of common interest, a few of the most practical topics, such as timber and forestry, weeds, plant breeding, and the plant industries, are given separate treatment, with as much detail as is possible in a brief course. The structure, functions, and ecological relations of plants are presented throughout the book in a synthetic manner. Questions pertaining to the interpretation and application of different features Of plant life are introduced in the text and at the ends of chapters. Other similar questions raised by the teacher will be found helpful in presenting problems that the pupil should be able to solve in connection with his studies. Such problems help to develop the constant attitude Of inquiry which science attempts to establish. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lessons in Botany Part I. Physiology. This deals with the life processes of plants, as absorption, transpiration, conduction, photosynthesis, nutrition, assimilation, digestion, respiration, growth, and irritability. Since protoplasm is fundamental to all the life work of the plant, this subject is dealt with first, and the student is led through the study of, and experimentation with, the simpler as well as some of the higher plants, to a general understanding of protoplasm and the special way in which it enables the plant to carry on its work and to adjust itself to the conditions of its existence. This study also serves the purpose of familiarizing the pupil with some of the lower and unfamiliar plants.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A d104-Book of Botany IT is customary to place all living beings in either the animal 01 vegetable kingdoms, but in reality a sharp boundary line between animals and plants first becomes possible when they exhibit a complicated structure. In those of more simple organisation all distinctions disappear, and it becomes difficult to define the exact limits of Botany and Zoology. This, in fact, could scarcely be otherwise, as all the processes of life, in both the animal and vegetable kingdoms, are dependent On the same substance, protoplasm. With more complicated organisation, the specific differences increase, and the characteristics distinguishing animal from vegetable life become more obvious. For the present, it must be confessed, the recognition Of an organism, as an animal or a plant, is dependent upon its corre spondence with an abstract idea of what a plant or animal Should be, .based on certain points of agreement between the members of each class. A satisfactory basis for the Separation of all living organisms into the categories of animals or plants can only be obtained when it is shown that all organisms distinguished as animals are in reality genetically connected, and that a similar connection exists between all plants. The proof of this can only be arrived at through the theory OF evolution. From the study of the fossil remains and impressions Of animals and plants, it has been established that in former epochs forms Of life. Differing from those of the present age existed on the earth. It is also generally assumed that all living animals and plants have been derived by gradual modification from previously existing forms. This leads to the further conclusion that those organisms possess ing closely Similar structure, which are united as species in a genus, are in reality related to one another. It is also probable that the union of corresponding genera into one familv and of families into higher groups serves to give expression to a real relationship existing between them.

Download or read book Elements of Botany Classic Reprint written by Joseph Y. Bergen and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-22 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Botany It will be found that this book differs from most American text-books designed for use in secondary schools, in endeavor ing to combine in one volume the simplest possible directions for laboratory work with an outline of vegetable anatomy and physiology, and a brief statement of the principles of botani cal classification. An account of the functions of the tissues or organs described usually follows as closely as may be the account of the parts in question. The attempt is made to disciiss' plants dynamically rather than statically, to view them as contestants in the struggle for existence, and to con sider some of the conditions of success and failure in the vegetable world. While the determination of species by means of an artifical key is illustrated, preparation for this process is by no means the main object or even a principal end which the author has had in view. The tendency of botany-teaching seems to be more and more away from the old ideal of enabling one's pupils to run down a species as expeditiously as possible, and teaching them how to preserve a properly ticketed memento of the chase.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from International Catalogue of Scientific Literature, Vol. 2: First Annual Issue; M, Botany It was unanimously resolved that it was desirable to compile and publish, by means of an international organisation, a complete Catalogue of Scientific Literature, arranged according both to subject matter and to authors' names, in which regard should be had, in the first instance, to the requirements of scientific investigators, so that these might find out, with a minimum of trouble, what had been published on any particular subject of enquiry. It was agreed that the material should, as far as possible, be collected in the various countries by local Organisations established for the purpose, and that the final editing and publication of the Catalogue should be entrusted to a Central International Bureau, acting under the direction of an International Council.
