Course: Agricultural Education - Development (18003-I) > Section: Exploring Plant Propagation

Identification should include the classification of plants according to

  - kingdom
  - phylum
  - class
  - order
  - family
  - genus
  - species.

Identification should also include species-specific traits, determined by drawing logical comparisons between plants or by using taxonomic keys to compare the parts of plants.

Process/Skill Questions:

  - What is a taxonomic key, and how is it used?
  - What is the order of scientific classification?
  - How are two common plants (e.g., pine tree and Boston fern) distinct in terms of their classification?
  - What is the difference between the scientific and common names for plants?
