over a period of time plants had to evolve from living in water to living on land .In early plants a waxy layer called cuticle evolved to help seal water in the plants and prevent water loss. to allow the plants to retain water and exchange gases small pores in the leaves called stomata also evolved. life on earth began in the water .so when the first animals moved on to land they had to trade their fins for limbs ;and their gills for lungs;for better adaptation to land habitat. Mordern day plants are much evolve and contain many specialized organ systems like Root system shoot system and with advanced stage of pollination and fertilization (cross fertilization ;self fertilization)etc..

which of the following derived characters would appear first?
A. deuterostome development
B. true tissues
C. protostome development
D. bilateral symmetry
2. Birds and mammals are endotherms. They maintain body
temperature by producing heat through metabolism. Endothermy is
energetically expensive for an organism, yet endotherms have become
the dominant group of tetrapods. What is a major evolutionary
advantage of endothermy?
A. Endothermy allows greater independence from water.
