Two factors contributed to the success of the pteridophytes: the extreme miniaturization of the gametophytic generation and an important development of the sporophytic generation (development of the tree forms).
Pteridophytes are a group of plants that peaked in the Carboniferous (-300 million years). It is the first great terrestrial plant civilization. These plants would have appeared in the Devonian -400 million years ago, perhaps from certain primitive terrestrial plants which, unlike bryophytes, would have favored the diploid generation on the haploid generation.
Particularly well adapted to terrestrial life, they have created, thanks to the development of tree forms, immense forests whose fossilization is at the origin of coal deposits.
Pteridophytes are at the origin of an evolutionary lineage based on the extreme miniaturization of gametophytic generation and an important development of sporophytic generation, leading to all tracheophytes including current flowering plants. Pteridophytes are well adapted to terrestrial life, however fertilization still requires the presence of water since male gametes are swimmers.
Explanation:
the answer is not A, B,D now get it it is Clear C protists
Baboons, sparrows, and human beings are considered both primary and higher order consumers because they all eat plants and meat.
Primary consumers feed on producers/ plants. Then secondary consumers feed on primary consumers.
The difference is found in the DNA chromosome of the male and females.
The males have XY chromosomes at the last while the females have XX, these chromosome labels are important to signify deviancy and disparities among the morphology and the later structure of the female and male functions.
