both allowed the widespread dominance of organisms on land by preventing the embryo from drying out (thus decreasing dependance on a body of water) and provided protection and nourishment to the embryo.

Rhizoids in molds are analogous to which structures on plants?

Rhizoids in molds are analogous to roots in plants. They both serve as structures that anchor the organism in place and aid in absorbing nutrients from the environment.


What are analogous regions in plants?

Analogous regions in plants refer to structures that have similar functions but evolved independently in different plant lineages. For example, the wings of a maple seed and a dandelion seed are analogous structures that evolved to aid in wind dispersal, even though they come from different plant families.


The heterosporous condition led to evolution of?

The heterosporous condition led to the evolution of two distinct types of spores: microspores (male) and megaspores (female). This allowed for the development of separate male and female gametophytes, which improved the efficiency of sexual reproduction in plants. It also facilitated the colonization of diverse terrestrial habitats.


Are the blades of kelp analogous or homologous to the leaves of plants?

The blades of kelp are analogous to the leaves of plants because they serve a similar function (photosynthesis) but are structurally different. Kelp blades are not derived from the same ancestral structures as plant leaves, so they are not homologous.


Land plants no longer required water as a medium for reproduction with the evolution what?

Land plants no longer require water as a medium for reproduction with evolution because with the evolution of seeds and pollen it is no longer needed.

The key step in the adaptation of seed plants to dry land was the evolution of?

The key step was the development of seeds, allowing plants to reproduce without water for fertilization. This adaptation enabled seed plants to thrive in drier environments by protecting and nourishing the plant embryo.


How did the changing geologic condition of the Paleozoic age affect the evolution of animals and plants?

The changing geologic condition of the Paleozoic age affected the evolution of animals by leading to the development of land based vertebrates and vascular plants. The largest mass extinction in our planets history happen at the end of the Paleozoic Era.
