Describe a minimum of two ways that plants changed the land environment to support the emergence of land animals.
Suppose that plants in the San Francisco Bay area and in southern Chile share a common seed dispersal method. Scientists determine that the evolutionary divergence of these plants happened long before this seed dispersal method arose in each plant. What term relates the seed dispersal method of the San Francisco Bay plant to the seed dispersal method of the southern Chile plant? Explain your answer.
