The vascular seedless plants are utilized as the medicinal plant and fertilizer.

Further Explanation:

The vascular plants are those plants that possess xylem and phloem for the transport of water and food respectively. Plants that have vascular system but are seedless are the members of Pteridophytes.

The characteristics of Pteridophytes:

1. They are seedless and vascular cryptogams: They reproduces through the production of spores.

2. They show alternation of generation as the sporophytic generation alternates with the gametophytic generation: Sporophyte possess true root, stem and leaves.

3. Spores are developed in the sporangia. Both type of spores are developed- homosporous and heterosporous.

4. Sex organs are multicellular and are jacketed.

Some of the example of Pteridophytes are:

1. Equisetum

2. Salvinia

3. Dicksonia

4. Selaginella

The importance of pteridophytes:

1. They are used as cattle feed

2. They are used for medicinal purpose. For example the foliage decoction of Lycopodium is utilized in homeopathy to treat certain disease such as constipation, eczema, diarrhea and inflammation of liver. Equisetumcontains various flavonoid and saponina that have diuretic effect.

3. Marsilea contains starch and are consumed by people as food in some areas.

4. Aquatic pteridophyte such as Azollaare used as a very good biofertiliser.

By far the greatest impact of seedless vascular plants on human life, however, comes from their extinct progenitors. The tall club mosses, horsetails, and tree-like ferns that flourished in the swampy forests of the Carboniferous period gave rise to large deposits of coal throughout the world.

The steps of fracture repair include:

Hematoma formation.
Fibrocartilage Callus Formation.
Bony Callus Formation.
Bone remodeling.

<h3>What is a fracture?</h3>

A fracture is a complete or partial break in a bone. The causes of bone fractures include trauma, overuse, and diseases that weaken bones.

In this case, Kyndall was lucky because the fracture occurred about 3 inches below the epiphyseal plate as this means the fracture does not break through the bone at the growth plate.

An improperly treated growth plate fracture could result in a fractured bone.

Lastly, the type of fracture is a nondisplaced fracture is one in which the bone cracks or breaks but retains its proper alignment.

Why are insertion and deletion mutations so harmful?

Marta_Voda [28]

the insertion on removal of mutations are dangerous in nature. the process is basically just one large gamble to see what it does. and even though we have a decent understanding of the genomes of many animals and plants, we still dont know everything. so if we tamper with certain genes we may cause a evolution or we might kill the subject and the potential for it to procreate.
