Description
This lesson is part of a three-part series on toxicology, the scientific study of poisons and their affect on biological systems. These lessons are based on Toxicology Enrichment Materials developed by Suzanne Conklin and found on the Society of Toxicology's Web site. In this lesson, students have the opportunity to conduct a toxicology experiment on a plant. Specifically, students determine the toxic dose of a chemical that will inhibit seed germination in Brassica rapa, a relative to cabbages and mustards. Less
