Match the description of each plants with the group to which the plant belongs. (match each number to a letter ! ) 1. a vascular plant that produces cones to house seeds 2. a vascular plant that does not produce seeds 3. a short, nonvascular plant that contain rhizoids 4. a flowering vascular plant that produces fruit around seeds a. bryophyte b. pteridophyte c. gymnosperm d. angiosperm

The right matches are :

A. bryophyte  ==> 3.

B. pteridophyte  ==> 2.

C. gymnosperm  ==> 1.  

D. angiosperm  ==> 4.

These four types of plants are cormophytes.

Bryophyte is a terrestrial plant belonging to the family Bryophyta, which does not have a real vascular system.

Gymnosperms are the first order of didynamy containing phanerogamous plants whose eggs are not enclosed in closed carpels.

Angiosperms are plants whose seeds are enclosed in a closed ovary.

Pteridophytes produce neither flowers nor seeds but are vascular plants.

Cladistics-This way(method) groups all the descendants from a common radiation into a clade as a related group and no others.Phylogeny- is a way of tracking evolutionary relationships based on shared characters between different species

Explanation:

Cladistics is concerned with entire branchings. This way(method) groups all the descendants from a common radiation into a clade as a related group and no others. The clades are monophyletic.

Cladistics is a narrower definition of an older, less precise concept now days.

Phylogeny is a way of tracking evolutionary relationships based on shared characters between different species.. This method allows convergent characters to be grouped despite their having followed a separate evolutionary path.  

Cladistics is a way (method) of grouping the related branches based on sharing derived characters within the group. However, these characters are not found in any  other species except by convergence.
