Relationships of Plants
(part A)
(click on underlined terms to go to glossary)
Plants evolved from one type of protistans, the Green Algae. Evidence for this relationship includes:
*biochemical attributes (such as photosynthesis, composition of cell walls)
* cellular attributes (such as mechanism of cell division, chloroplast structure) * molecular attributes (such as similarities in ribosomes and the protein sypthesizing platforms)*biochemical attributes (such as photosynthesis, composition of cell walls)
*cellular attributes (such as mechanism of cell division, chloroplast structure)
*molecular attributes (such as similarities in ribosomes and the protein synthesizing platforms)
