Health & Life Sciences, Agriculture, Botany, PaleontologyOpen Courseware and Resources- Agriculture: the production of food, feed, fiber and other goods by the systematic growing/harvesting of plants, animals and other life forms.(Wikipedia) - Botany: scientific study of plant life. As a branch of biology, it is also called plant science(s), phytology, or plant biology. (Wikipedia) - Horticulture: horticulturists work and conduct research in the fields of plant propagation and cultivation, crop production, plant breeding and genetic engineering, plant biochemistry, and plant physiology. (Wikipedia) - Paleontology: the study of prehistoric life forms on Earth through the examination of plant and animal fossils. This includes the study of body fossils, tracks (ichnites), burrows, cast-off parts, fossilised faeces (coprolites), palynomorphs and chemical residues.
