Question | Answer |
---|---|
clade plantae includes what 4 groups | unicellular groups, red algae, green plants and land plants |
what is the synapomorphie for plantae | chloroplasts obtained by primary endosymbiosis |
what is the synapomorphies for green plants | 1. chlorophyll b; starch storage |
what are the synapomorphies for land plants (5) | protected embryo; cuticle; multicellular sporophyte; gametangia; thick-walled spores |
______ ________ are the sister taxa to land plants | green algae |
are green algae monophyletic | no |
sister to the rest of plants | glaucophytes |
what do all glaucophytes share | peptidoglycan between inner and outer membrane |
what ties together all red algae | use red as a photosynthetic pigment; aquatic (marine and fresh) |
largest clade of "green algae" (green algae are not monophyletic) | chlorophytes |
sister to streptophytes | chlorophytes |
how are chlorophytes found | multicellular, unicellular, colonial |
clade that contains land plants and a few green algae | streptophytes |
what are the clades of land plants in short | non=vascular plants; vascular plants - weed plants |
what synapomorphy do all land plants have except liverworts | stomata |
what do all non-vascular land plants have a synapomorphy | stomata |
what synapomorphy do all vascular plants share | tracheids (vascular cellls); branching independent sporophyte; rooting structures |
what is the synapomorphy of all seed plants | seeds |
what is the synapomorphy of all angiosperms | flowers; double fertilization |
what taxa are apart of the "non vascular plants" | liverworts, mosses, hornworts |
no vascular tissue or tracheas; gametophyte dominant; rhizoids; stomata - mosses and hornworts | nonvascular plants |
vascular tissue, small gametophyte | vascular plants - club moss, fern, and seed plants clades |
what do gymnosperm and angisperm clades have in common | pollen and seeds |
gymnosperms are also called _________ ________ plants because of early ________ and __________ | naked seed; seeds and pollen |
angiosperms are also called ______ _______ clade | flowering plant |
fruits and flowers; double fertilization | angiosperms |
