Step by step
Solved in 2 steps
- What are the levels of plant taxonomic categories? Give example for each.Create a phylogenic tree and cladogram for the following table of plants and their chracteristics: Characteristics Green algae Moss Club moss Ferns Pine Narra Oogamy 1 1 1 1 1 1 Vascular tissue 0 0 1 1 1 1 Multi-branched networks of veins in the leaves 0 0 0 1 1 1 Pollen grains 0 0 0 0 1 1 Ovule 0 0 0 0 1 1 Pistil 0 0 0 0 0 1What is the plant variation of: -Mayana flower-Bataw flower-Caballero flower-Dendrobium flower
- Create a hypothetical phylogenetic tree using 11 plant species listed below. Chara, Nitella, Marchantia, Polytrichum, Equistem, Psilotum, Polypodium, Pinus, Zamia, Arabidopsis, and Lilium. Divide the species into five specific groups (Charophytes, Bryophytes, Monolithophytes, Gymnosperms, and Angiosperms) which will be the clades of your phylogenetic tree.There are two types of semaphyll - intrafloral semaphyll and extrafloral semaphyll. Intrafloral semaphyll is when it is from any four parts of the flowers, while it is extrafloral semaphyll if it comes from other parts outside of the flower-like stems, leaves, etc. Fill the table with the type of semaphyll and the plant part involved. Species Type of Semaphyll Plant part involved Canna generalis Anthurium andreanum Antigonon leptopus Allamanda cathartica Heliconia bihaiName three group of plant that bear archegonia. Breifly describe the life cycle of any one?

- A taxonomist discovers a plant species that is unknown to science. Using your knowledge of the science of taxonomy gained through this course, discuss in a short essay how this taxonomist can go about describing the new species, and what would be important to do during this process. You need to mention: Resources where he/she/they can study the plant and other plant collections, species concepts, taxonomic evidence that can be used and how these can be analysed, type specimens and also nomenclature (what is necessary for him/her/them to publish the name).You are asked to survey an area and identify all plant and animal species you come across. On your survey, you come across a plant you are not familiar with and must do some research to figure out what it is. To do this, your first step is to determine whether this plant is classified in the class Monocotyledonae or a Eudicotyledonae. Explain how you can tell if this plant is a Monocot or Eudicot by describing the differences in their flowers, seeds, roots, stems, and leaves. 1.Construct a phylogenic tree/cladogram for the following table of plants and their chracteristics: Characteristics Green algae Moss Club moss Ferns Pine tree Narra tree Oogamy 1 1 1 1 1 1 Vascular tissue 0 0 1 1 1 1 Multi-branched networks of veins in the leaves 0 0 0 1 1 1 Pollen grains 0 0 0 0 1 1 Ovule 0 0 0 0 1 1 Pistil 0 0 0 0 0 1
