Phylogenetic analyses of land plants and their close relatives determined that the land plants form a monophyletic group (pass one-snip-test). This suggests Select one: a. There was a single transition from aquatic to terrestrial habitats O b. Flowering plants arose first O c. No changes have occurred in lands plants since they transition to a terrestrial habitat d. Wind-pollinated plants arose first e. There were many transitions from aquatic to terrestrial habitats

Plants made the leap from water to land during the late Ordovician period (we think). In order to make it, various physical obstacles had to be overcome.    Choose one adaptation and explore it further. What evidence do we have of this change? Are there specific fossils of plants that exhibit it? How do we think it may have developed? Not all of these changes occurred at the exact same time. Was your chosen adaptation one of the first or late to the game? including references are appreciated.

Which of these time intervals, based on plant fossils, came last (most recently)? O colonization of land by early liverworts and mosses O extensive growth of gymnosperm forests O rise and diversification of angiosperms O carboniferous swamps with giant horsetails and lycophytes MacBook Pro Search or type URL #3 $ % & * 4 5 6.

Which of the following features is found in a rooted tree but not in an unrooted tree?a. Terminal nodesb. Internal nodesc. A common ancestor to all other nodesd. Branch lengths that represent the amount of evolutionary divergence between nodes

Summarize (very briefly) the evolutionary history of plants. You might just give the order in which they are thought to have evolved. What are the most recently evolved type of plants?

Explain how arborscent lycopods and horsetails are to vascular plant evolution what dinosaurs are to vertebrate evolution.

Are mosses a direct ancestor of flowering plants? Explain.

Which of the following is correct with respects to Liverworts, Mosses, and Hornworts? a. They are earths simplest land plants b. Collectively they are known as bryophytes c. Collectively they form a monophyletic group d. Both a and b e. None of the Above
