Solved in 2 steps
- Aside from the Sapotaceae, what other families studied so far possess laticifers? What is a stipule? How can one distinguish a stipule from the bud associated with the petiole of a leaf? Name other families studied so far that have stipulate What is a pollinia? What other families studied has its pollen in pollinia?why are paleodictos presumed to be primitive angospermsWhat characteristics of angiosperms have allowed this group ofplants to dominate Earth?
- What phylum are all angiosperms classified under? what are the two key features that all angiosperms possess? What are fruits? What can they look like? What are their functions? What were early angiosperms like? Where and when did they likely diverge from? What are some current threats to angiosperms?The work of plant taxonomists of the 20th century who identified /established the different families of flowering plants based mainly on morphological and anatomical details is still valued and being used today, despite the general acceptance of the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group (APG) as a classification system for the flowering plants. Why is it so?Which of the following statements best compares the two dominant lineages of modern angiosperms? -Monocots are monophyletic whereas eudicots have multiple origins. -Monocots have only one pistil per flower whereas eudicots have three. -Monocots have only one cotyledon whereas eudicots have two. -Monocots are lycophylls whereas eudicots are euphylls. -Monocots have only one stamen per flower whereas eudicots have six.
