Vascular tissue allows for the movement of water and nutrients throughout the plant, and provides structural support for upright growth. Compare the water conducting cells of Bryophytes, tracheids in gymnosperms, and vessels in angiosperms.
• Transition from water-dependent reproduction to water-independent reproduction.
Early plants relied on swimming gametes and were thus
required wet conditions to complete the life cycle. The seed plants do not require water either for fertilization or for survival of the zygote (the zygote is protected
from desiccation in the seed coat, and may lie dormant until the conditions are favourable for germination.) This allowed plants to colonize dry environments.
Also acceptable is an explanation of how the coevolution of flowers and animal pollinators allowed for expansion of range in many plants.
• Evolution of stomata, cuticle and pores.
This allowed the plant to control the loss of water in arid environments.
• Evolution of lignin and woody skeletons.
This allowed the plant to grow upright and withstand damage from environmental conditions.
• Evolution and elaboration of roots and leaves.
Roots both anchored the
plant and absorbed water and nutrients from the soil. Elaboration of leaves increased rates of photosynthesis as a response to increased competition for
light.
CELL WALL The cell wall surrounds the cell membrane of a plant cell. The cell wall is made of a nonliving material called cellulose [SEL-yoo-lohs]. The cell wall is more rigid (stiff) than the cell mambrane. It gives a plant cell its stiffness. It also gives it its shape.

Anabolism: Four Basic Reasons 1. To carry out structural maintenance or repairs 2. To support growth 3. To produce secretions 4. To store nutrient reserves
No, it provides a guide for bone growth, a spacer between joints, and it also grants support for soft tissue. It doesn't produce blood however.
Cell reproduction, which includes mitosis and cytokinesis, provides new cells, growth, and repair.
Salt water provides physiological stress to the plant
system of classification using structural characteristic
Gravity affects the growth of plants whereby for a plant to grow vertically upright, it needs a strong structural base, and it also makes the roots to grow downwards and determines how tall a plant can get.

The ancestors of land plants, green algae, lack the structural support to stand erect in air.
DNA provides the information for cell growth and function.
President Harding wanted to support the growth of business and industry.
There is no scientific evidence to support the claim that wearing a bra to sleep can stop the growth of the breast. Breast growth is primarily determined by genetics, hormones, and age. It is generally recommended to wear a comfortable bra that provides support during the day, but it is not necessary to wear one while sleeping.
the answer is calcium

The functions of extracellular matrix (ECM):provides mechanical and structural support for tissue (as well as tensile strength for the tissue)biochemical barrier --> defenceregulating metabolic functions of the cells surrounded by the matrix:adhesion --> anchor cells within tissuemigration --> provides pathways (e.g., during wound repair)proliferation --> modulate cell growth by binding and retaining growth factorsdifferentiation --> influences transmission of information across the plasma membrane of the connective tissue cellsConclusion: The components of the ECM form a dynamic and interactive system that informs cells about the biochemical and mechanical changes in their extracellular environment.Reference:Ross, M.H. & Pawlina, W. 2006, Histology: A Text and Atlas: With Correlated Cell and Molecular Biology, 5 edn, Lippincott Williams & Wilkins.
