4 Highlights in the History of Plants Plants arose about 475 million years ago from ancestors resembling green algae. Section 19.1 Cotton: S. Solum/PhotoLink/Getty Images RF

5 Highlights in the History of Plants Plants arose about 475 million years ago. Section 19.1

6 Highlights in the History of Plants Major evolutionary events in plants include the origins of vascular tissue, pollen and seeds, and flowers. Section 19.1

7 Highlights in the History of Plants The presence or absence of vascular tissue, pollen and seeds, and flowers defines each plant group. Section 19.1

8 Highlights in the History of Plants The presence or absence of vascular tissue, pollen and seeds, and flowers defines each plant group. Section 19.1 Figure 19.3

9 Highlights in the History of Plants Bryophytes have no vascular tissue, seeds, or flowers. Mosses are bryophytes. Section 19.1 Figure 19.3

10 Highlights in the History of Plants The origin of vascular tissue, which transports water and nutrients in the plant, allowed plants to grow taller. Taller plants reach above their neighbors in the struggle for sunlight. Section 19.1 Figure 19.3

11 Highlights in the History of Plants Vascular tissue consists of phloem and xylem. Phloem transports sugars. Xylem transports water. Section 19.1 Stem cross section: Dr. John D. Cunningham/Visuals Unlimited Figures 19.3, 19.4

12 Highlights in the History of Plants Lignin is a complex polymer that strengthens cell walls in vascular tissue. Section 19.1 Stem cross section: Dr. John D. Cunningham/Visuals Unlimited Figures 19.3, 19.4

13 Highlights in the History of Plants Modifications in vascular tissue led to the evolution of seedless vascular plants, like ferns. Section 19.1 Figure 19.3

14 Highlights in the History of Plants The origin of seeds dormant, protected plant embryos with a nutrient supply was also adaptive. Seeds might travel far from the parent and only germinate when conditions are favorable. Section 19.1 Figure 19.3

15 Highlights in the History of Plants Gymnosperms are plants with vascular tissue and seeds, such as pine trees. Cone scale Seed Section 19.1 Pine cones: Westend61/Alamy RF Figures 19.3, 19.4

16 Highlights in the History of Plants More recently, the origin of flowers and fruits introduced new reproductive adaptations. Angiosperms are flowering plants. Section 19.1 Figure 19.3

17 Highlights in the History of Plants More recently, the origin of flowers and fruits introduced new reproductive adaptations. Angiosperms are flowering plants. Seed contains embryo and its food supply Fertilized flowers develop into fruits that protect and disperse seeds Section 19.1 Pea pods: Corbis RF Figures 19.3, 19.4

20 All Plants Have Similar Life Cycles The similarity among plant life cycles is evidence that all plants share a common ancestor. Section 19.1 Figure 19.5

21 All Plants Have Similar Life Cycles The plant life cycle is called alternation of generations, in which a multicellular diploid stage alternates with a multicellular haploid stage. Section 19.1 Figure 19.5
