Summary Introduction
Introduction: Colonization is the process of establishing a particular domain in the area or land. Many theories have proposed on colonization of organism on the lands. The microorganism is the first colonized organism in the earth. Later on, the plants have evolved from the unicellular blue-green algae. Many environmental adaptations have occurred on the plants such as the development of tissues, seeds, and flowers for its survival.
