Use a classic botanist practice known as the dichotomous key to identify common plants and trees.
Plants are multi-celled organisms with cell walls that often use the process of photosynthesis to make food for survival. In addition to providing oxygen to our planet, plants supply 90% of human calorie intake, 80% of human protein intake, and are critical to our wellbeing. We can thank plants for providing us with a healthy and sustainable food system.
In this activity, you’ll learn about the taxonomy system which classifies and organizes plants all around us. You’ll begin to understand how living organisms are related, and what makes them different.
This activity is part of our 4-H at Home Plant Science Series. See the rest of the activities here.
