Question

Give importance of herbarium and museum

Answer 1

Answer:

Herbaria document the world's flora and provide a constant and permanent record of botanical diversity. This role is increasingly important as the rate of habitat destruction increases and climate change precipitates rapid changes in species' ranges and all aspects of their ecology.

The traditional role of museums is to collect objects and materials of cultural, religious and historical importance, preserve them, research into them and present them to the public for the purpose of education and enjoyment.
