Question

tracheids are a structure in plants which...
carries the gametophyte
is the gametophyte thallus of a fern
carries fluids and enables vertical growth by providing vascular tissue
expands roots via mychorhizzae which increase their absorbing capacity
12 multiple choice 10 points
the first plants clearly evolved directly from an organism, that, if it existed today, would be classified as a multicellular....
green algae
brown algae
red algae
gymnosperm

to reproduce sexually, bryophytes require

Explanation:

First Question (Tracheids):
Brief Explanations

Tracheids are part of the xylem (vascular tissue) in plants. They transport water and minerals (fluids) and help in vertical growth by providing structural support via vascular tissue. The other options are incorrect: gametophyte - related options are about reproductive structures, mycorrhizae relate to roots and fungi, not tracheids.

Brief Explanations

The first plants evolved from multicellular green algae. Green algae share many biochemical and structural similarities with plants (e.g., chlorophyll a and b, cell walls with cellulose). Brown algae (e.g., kelp) are not plant ancestors, red algae are different, and gymnosperms are later - evolved plants, not the ancestor of the first plants.

Answer:

Carries fluids and enables vertical growth by providing vascular tissue
