What are two major evolutionary advances of seed plants? What advantages do they offer?
Homework Answers
Answer - two major evolutionary advances of seed plants are 1- seed and pollen formation - it allowed the plants to reproduce in absence of water.
2 - the gametophyte of plants become shrank while the sporophyte become prominent.
Advantages they offer-1- evolution of seeds allowed plants to decrease their dependency upon water for reproduction.
2-seeds contains embryo that can remain dormant until conditions are favourable when it grows into a diploid sporophyte.
3- seeds are transported by wind, water or animals to encourage reproduction and reduce competition with parent plants.
