Answer:

Presence of chlorophyll  pigment in the leaves and cell walls were made of cellulose

Explanation:

The first plants that appeared on the land areas were comprised of the main component known as the cellulose that forms the cell wall of the plants and is responsible for making the various parts of plants such as branches, plant stems, and leaves, stronger and supportive.

In addition to this, the leaves of these primitive plants were comprised of green pigments known as chlorophyll that absorbs the sunlight and CO₂, and helps the plants in preparing the food for themselves as well as for the consumers, and also liberates oxygen (O₂) with it.

Thus, these are the two common characteristics that supported the idea that the primitive land plants had a relation with the green algae.

What cranial nerves does NOT originate from the brainstem?
Vladimir79 [104]
The cranial nerves are a set of 12 paired nerves that arise directly from the brain. The first two nerves (olfactory and optic) arise from the cerebrum, whereas the remaining ten emerge from the brain stem.

The names of the cranial nerves relate to their function and they are also numerically identified in roman numerals (I-XII).

In this article, we shall summarise the anatomy of the cranial nerves.

The sugar glider in Australia and the flying squirrel in North America are both small mammals with large expanses of loose skin
Flauer [41]

Answer:

Each have adapted in very similar ways to similar habitats.

Explanation:

According to Darwin, given a similar set of conditions, two different organisms can adapt in the same direction. Here, the sugar glider inhabits Australia and the flying squirrel inhabits North America. There is a huge distance between their locations and also they are two different species with no direct evolutionary relation. However, because of the similar conditions present in their habitats, they developed same traits over the time. Both of them live in forested areas so they developed loose skin between their limbs which allowed them to glide freely between the trees.

A cell is placed into a hypertonic solution. How does the concentration of water differ in the solution and the cell cytoplasm?
vazorg [7]
I think that the water concentration in the cell is more than the one in the solution, so the water in the cell moves to the solution and then the cell shrinks
