Publisher's Synopsis
Nature and Development of Plants is a book written by Carlton Clarence Curtis in 1918. It is a comprehensive guide to the study of plants, covering everything from their anatomy and physiology to their ecology and evolution. The book is divided into four main parts, each of which explores a different aspect of plant life. Part one focuses on the structure and function of plants, including their organs, tissues, and cells. Part two delves into the processes of growth and development, including the role of hormones and environmental factors in shaping plant morphology. Part three examines the ecological relationships between plants and their environment, including their interactions with other organisms and their response to abiotic factors such as climate and soil. Finally, part four explores the evolution of plants, from their origins in the fossil record to their diversification and adaptation to different habitats. Throughout the book, Curtis provides detailed illustrations and diagrams to help readers understand the complex processes and structures of plant life. Nature and Development of Plants is a valuable resource for students and researchers in botany, ecology, and related fields.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
