Drying

Vedclass · Answer

(B) The standard procedure for preparing a herbarium specimen involves several steps: $1$. Collection of the plant material. $2$. Drying (also known as pressing) of the specimen. $3$. Poisoning (treatment with chemicals like mercuric chloride to prevent fungal or insect attack). $4$. Mounting on a herbarium sheet. $5$. Labeling. Since the question asks for the process performed after collection and before pressing (which is part of the drying process),the correct sequence is often interpreted as the preparation for drying. However,in the context of standard herbarium techniques,'Drying' is the process that follows collection and precedes the final mounting and labeling.
