The correct Answer is:
To determine the correct sequence of evolution in the plant kingdom, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Start with Unicellular Algae**: The evolution of plants begins with unicellular algae, which are the first photosynthetic organisms. They are entirely aquatic. 2. **Evolution to Multicellular Algae**: Over time, these unicellular algae evolve into multicellular algae. This represents a significant step in plant evolution. 3. **Emergence of Bryophytes**: Following multicellular algae, bryophytes appear. Bryophytes are considered the first land plants, but they still require water for reproduction, which is why they are often referred to as the amphibians of the plant kingdom. 4. **Development of Pteridophytes**: Next in the evolutionary sequence are pteridophytes. These are the first true terrestrial plants that possess vascular tissues, allowing for better adaptation to land. However, they do not produce seeds. 5. **Introduction of Gymnosperms**: After pteridophytes, gymnosperms emerge. These are the first seed-bearing plants, characterized by "naked seeds" that are not enclosed in fruits. 6. **Evolution of Angiosperms**: The final major group in this evolutionary sequence is angiosperms, which are flowering plants that produce seeds enclosed within fruits. Angiosperms are further divided into two categories: dicots and monocots. 7. **Order of Evolution**: Based on the above steps, the correct order of evolution is: - Bryophytes - Pteridophytes - Gymnosperms - Angiosperms (which are further divided into dicots and monocots) ### Conclusion: The correct sequence of evolution is: - Bryophytes → Pteridophytes → Gymnosperms → Angiosperms (Dicots and Monocots).
