Microscopy is not a method used to detect extrasolar planets.

<h3>Methods of detecting exoplanets:</h3>

Any planetary body beyond the solar system that typically orbits a star other than the Sun is referred to as an extrasolar planet, often known as an exoplanet. There are 3,779 planetary systems with 3,108 confirmed exoplanets as of 1 July 2022, 826 of which contain multiple planets. The Kepler space telescope was responsible for most of these discoveries.

Exoplanets contain elements that are comparable to those found in our solar system, but their compositions of those elements may vary. Iron or carbon may dominate some planets, whilst water or ice may rule others.

The following methods have at least once proved successful for discovering an extrasolar planet or detecting an already discovered planet:

  • Radial velocity
  • Transit photometry
  • Ellipsoidal variations
  • Pulsar timing
  • Variable star timing
  • Transit timing
  • Transit duration variation
  • Eclipsing binary minima timing
  • Gravitational microlensing
  • Direct imaging

Green algae is divided into chlorophyte and chlorophyte. It possess chlorophyll a and b.

Bryophytes includes the liverworts, mosses and hornworts. It is know tracheaophytes I.e. is not vascular without extensive transport system, it needs water to reproduce sexually. It's Gametophyte is dominant and stomata are absent. (Hornworts possess stomata; it's related to tracheaophytes.

Ferns have vascular tissue, xylem and pholem, stem, root, leaves, dominant sporophyte. It's sporophyte possess rhizomes and fronds plus sporingia aldo called sori. Ferns are seedless vascular plants.

Gymnosperms includes the conifers, cycad e.t.c. It has its ovules resting on a scale. The ovules later develop into the seed. These seeds are naked as there are not enclosed in the chambers.

Angiosperms have flowers and fruits and show diuble fertilization. This is a  huge clade that consists of all flowering plants. Unlike Gymnosperms

They develop enclosed in chambers known as ovaries.
