Textbook Question
Chapter 19, Problem 1TS
Recent DNA evidence suggests to some plants taxonomists that the traditional way of classifying flowering plants is not correct, and that flowering plants need to be completely reclassified.
Other botanists disagree, saying it would be chaotic and unwise to disregard the historical classification groups. Argue for and against keeping traditional classification schemes.

Despite changes in the approach for classifying plants (from artificial-, to natural-, to phylogenetic systems), what has been the common features or structure of these systems that can be attributed to the work- and influence of Linnaeus in the field of taxonomy?
Create a hypothetical phylogenetic tree using 11 plant species listed below.
Chara, Nitella, Marchantia, Polytrichum, Equistem, Psilotum, Polypodium, Pinus, Zamia, Arabidopsis, and Lilium.
Divide the species into five specific groups (Charophytes, Bryophytes, Monolithophytes, Gymnosperms, and Angiosperms) which will be the clades of your phylogenetic tree.
Now you will practice identifying the phylogenetic tree that corresponds to a given character table. The following table shows three key events in the evolution of plants: the development of vascular tissue, the development of flowers, and the development of seeds.

On your survey, you come across a plant you are not familiar with and must do some research to figure out what it is. To do this, your first step is to determine whether this plant is classified in the class Monocotyledonae or a Eudicotyledonae. Explain how you can tell if this plant is a Monocot or Eudicot by describing the differences in their flowers, seeds, roots, stems, and leaves. 1.arrow_forwardcomplete the table helparrow_forward
