Dichotomous Key Botany Laboratory PDF

This document contains a dichotomous key for identifying 14 plant species. The key is organized into a branching decision tree structure with numbered characteristics. It begins by separating plants into herbs or trees/shrubs/vines. Herbs are further divided based on habitat and leaf features, while trees are separated based on leaf base shape, root type, leaf apex, flowering status, leaf arrangement, and flower color.
