Question
which evolutionary adaptations helped plants succeed and spread on land?
vascular tissue and seeds
spores and pine cones
small size and small seeds
cotyledons and nonvascular tissue
Vascular tissue (xylem and phloem) allows for efficient transport of water, nutrients, and sugars throughout the plant, which is crucial for larger - sized land plants. Seeds provide a protected environment for the embryo, contain stored nutrients, and can remain dormant until conditions are favorable for germination. Spores are less protected than seeds and require moist conditions. Small size is not a key adaptation for widespread success. Non - vascular tissue limits the size and complexity of plants.
