Vedclass · Answer

(A) The process of preparing a herbarium involves several steps: $1$. $Collection$: Gathering the plant specimens. $2$. $Pressing$: The specimens are placed between sheets of blotting paper or newspaper and pressed to remove moisture and flatten them. This is done before the drying process. $3$. $Drying$: The specimens are dried to remove remaining moisture. $4$. $Poisoning$: Treating with chemicals like $HgCl_2$ to prevent fungal or insect attacks. $5$. $Mounting$: Fixing the dried specimens onto herbarium sheets. Therefore, $Pressing$ is the method used before drying.
