The ancestors of plants are most likely plant-like protists, which are small, unicellular, aquatic eukaryotes capable of photosynthesis. These organisms gave rise to land plants about 475 million years ago. The first land plants were simple and did not contain vascular tissue. This meant that they were not able to move food and water from one part of their structure to another. Examples of these nonvascular plants are seen in liverworts, hornworts, and mosses. All three groups are small, simple, and must live in moist environments.      

The third major evolutionary development in plants occurred around 360 million years ago. Plants developed seeds. These seeds are used for reproduction and provide several advantages over plants that do not have seeds, including the ability for offspring to travel far distances from their parents, protection from the elements, and the ability to remain dormant until the time is just right to grow. Examples of plants that produce seeds are conifers, daffodils, and apple trees.

Around 420 million years ago, a great advance in plant structure evolved - vascular tissues. The two types of vascular tissue - xylem and phloem - move water and food throughout plants. This development allowed plants to expand where they could live - they no longer needed to be in only moist environments. It also allowed them to grow bigger. This adaptation was so advantageous that more than 90% of all plant species are vascular. Examples of vascular plants include ferns and horsetail.

Which puppy is the heaviest?
12345 [234]

Answer : B is the heaviest puppy amongst all.

Explanation : There are three comparisons shown in the figure, out of which B is assumed to be heaviest amongst all on the basis of following assumptions.

When weighing A and C puppy, A was found to have lighter weight than C. So, in this case C is the heavier puppy.

In second case, when C and D are weighed, both are found to be equal in weight.

Then last comparison was with B and D puppies where, D was observed to be of light weight and B proved to be the heaviest.

Therefore, the conclusion is that B is the heaviest puppy in comparison with rest others.

How do scientists use the kinetic theory of matter?
Keith_Richards [23]

The energy of moving matter is called kinetic energy. Scientists think that the particles of all matter are in constant motion. In other words, the particles of matter have kinetic energy. The theory that all matter consists of constantly moving particles is called the kinetic theory of matter. 

  • If particles do not have enough kinetic energy to overcome the force of attraction between them, matter exists as a solid.
  • If particles have enough kinetic energy to partly overcome the force of attraction between them, matter exists as a liquid.
  • If particles have enough kinetic energy to completely overcome the force of attraction between them, matter exists as a gas.

The aquifer which will be most effective in purifying polluted ground water is AN AQUIFER COMPOSED MAINLY OF SAND.
An aquifer refers to a zone of permeable rock strata which transmit ground water freely. An aquifer must be permeable and porous. Ground water can be extracted from an aquifer by using a water well.
