Investigation of non-seed plants

CUHK

About This Course

Bryophytes and ferns are members of the Kingdom Plantae and produce spores instead of seeds. These linages emerged before the appearance and divergence of seed plants. They show some adaptive features to the land life, though their sexual reproduction relies on the availability of free water in the environment.

Through this course, you will learn the key morphological features of these non-seed plants and their adaptive values by going through virtual labs, photo-sharing platform, videos and self-tests.

Requirements

For learners with basic understanding of plants.
