Draw a phylogenetic tree of the plant kingdom. Include the following groups: bryophytes, pteridophytes, lycophytes, gymnosperms, monocots, and eudicots. Use green algae as the out group for your tree.

Construct a cladogram based on the following data. Mosses are plants with no vascular tissue. Horsetails, ferns, gymnosperms (pines and other plants with naked seeds), and angiosperms (flowering plants) are all vascular plants. Seeds are absent in all but the gymnosperms and angiosperms. Angiosperms are the only seed plants with flowers. (Hint: To help you construct the cladogram, draw a simple table showing which characters are present in each group.)
