Early taxonomists classified all species as either plants or animals; Later, five kingdoms were recognized: Monera (prokaryotes), Protista, Plantae, Fungi, and Animalia; More recently, the...
19 lip 2017 · Summary of Campbell & Reece, 7th Edition of Chapters 29 & 30 in preparation of 2009 International Biology Olympiad in Tsukuba, Japan. This document discusses speciation and the evolution of new species. It defines different types of speciation, including allopatric, parapatric, and sympatric speciation.
15 lip 2008 · The document discusses the classification and taxonomy of plants and living organisms. It introduces the five kingdoms used to classify all life (plants, animals, fungi, protists, and monera) and provides examples of types of organisms that fall under each kingdom.
16 cze 2009 · Evolution of Plants. Summary of Campbell & Reece, 7th Edition of Chapters 29 & 30 in preparation of 2009 International Biology Olympiad in Tsukuba, Japan.
24 Introduction The evolution of plants is highlighted by two important landmarks: (1) the evolution of seeds, which lead to the gymnosperms and angiosperms, the plants that dominate most modern landscapes (2) the emergence of the importance of seed plants to animals, specifically to humans.
1997 uniquely synthesizes aspects of land plant evolution that include morphology, biomechanics, phylogenetics, and microevolutionary processes. Stewart and Rothwell 1993 and Taylor, et al. 2009 are key paleobotanical texts.
27 mar 2019 · Here, we review his many contributions to plant biology—from the evolutionary origins of angiosperms to plant reproduction, carnivory, and movement—and note that he expected one day there would be a ‘true’ genealogical tree for plants. This view fuelled the field of plant phylogenetics.
