Adaptations to land Plants have several adaptations that enable them to grow on land. Drag each function to its correct plant adaptation. Produces gametes Transports water and nutrients throughout plant and provides physical support for tall growth Protects and disperses seeds Captures sunlight and exchanges gases Anchors plant and absorbs water and minerals Waterproof layer that prevents water loss

Select three adaptations that plants have for life on land. Explain how each of those adaptations helps the plant to survive on land. Hypothesize how the plant life cycle may be an adaptation to help ensure the survival of their offspring. If you were to design a plant-like organism on another planet that was living on land but in a very wet environment, what are two adaptations that you would expect that plant to have in response to that environment? If you were to design a plant-like organism on another planet that was living on land but in a very dry environment, what are two adaptations that you would expect that plant to have in response to that environment that are more specific to that dry environment? Discuss the reasons why plants and fungi are from different Kingdoms. Include information on structure and lifestyle.

Adaptations that have contributed to the success of plants in terrestrial environments include seeds, vascular tissue, cuticle, and flowers. There are other significant adaptations as well. For the adaptations listed, arrange them in the order in which they first appear in the fossil record, earliest first. - cuticle, seeds, flowers, vascular tissue - seeds, vascular tissue, flowers, cuticle - cuticle, vascular tissue, seeds, flowers - vascular tissue, cuticle, seeds, flowers
Identify adaptations that make it possible for plants to survive on land.
