Science Slide Background

This science slide background sets plant stems, leaves and roots in blue against a deep navy canvas. A wilted stem, a spotted leaf and a fringe of root hairs reach in from the edge of each slide with crisp botanical detail. They stay small and subtle, so the dark space keeps your titles, results and diagrams easy to read. It works as a plant biology PowerPoint background too, suited to botany classes, plant pathology lectures, agriculture research and field reports.

Features:

  • Plant biology details: wilted stem, blighted leaf, spotted leaf and plant root
  • 5 background layouts: object on the left, right or bottom, plus two diagonal corner versions
  • Deep navy and blue color palette with crisp, high-contrast detail
  • About 80% clean space for titles, text, charts and diagrams
  • Widescreen 16:9 format (1856×1056 JPG)
  • Works in PowerPoint, Google Slides and Keynote
