Excerpt from A College Text-Book of Botany: Being an Enlargement of the Author's "Elementary Botany" Part I. Physiology. This deals with the life processes of plants, as absorption, transpiration, conduction, photosynthesis, nutrition, assimilation, digestion, respiration, growth, and irritability.
