Will learn to define structural and distinquish gymnosperms from angiosperms, functional properties according to the general monocots from core dicots, rosids and asterids terminology of plant biology, to characterise according to the structure of vegetative and peculiarities of plant cell structures, taxonomic reproduction organs; c) to characterise main hierarchy, names of main taxons, will learn systematic groups of green plants according to classification of cormophyte plant diversity, present their structure and reproduction; d) to relate status, threats and future trends, economic value of knowledge about embryophytes with microbial, main groups of plants, to define main methods for algae, fungi and animal data; e) to select the best plant research, to make general conclusions on plant model plants for research, to identify anatomy and morphology topics taxonomical position; f) to manipulate easily with terminology in plant systematics, morphology and anatomy; d) to apply knowledge for special research needs and solution of important biological problems Content (topics) Lecture courses 1.
