| Purpose: The purpose of this module is to equip students with a comprehensive understanding of plant physiological processes, focusing on the transformative roles of bioenergetics, photobiology, and nitrogen assimilation in sustaining life. Students will gain integrated knowledge of key biochemical reactions like ATP synthesis and photosynthesis and will be able to apply these principles in real-world contexts. This module also addresses the dual role of sunlight in energy conversion and information signaling within plants, preparing students to critically evaluate and solve complex problems related to energy efficiency and sustainable practices in botany. Upon completing this module, students will not only advance their immediate academic goals but also contribute to socio-economic transformations aligned with Sustainable Development Goals, particularly those focused on sustainable agriculture and energy. |
