Plants, one of the five kingdoms
of living organisms, are a significant contributor to the base
of the food
chain.
The process by which these autotrophs capture energy from
the sun and convert it into a chemical form, photosynthesis,
is
one
of
the most
important metabolic processes upon which all life depends.
After examining this important process the basics of plant
anatomy and physiology are explored.
