A compilation of requests leading to Seeds Aside that where actual questions. Some are nice,some are cute, some are, well, just below…
- where does meiosis come from?
This is a wonderful question, so it’s on top of the list. Of course I don’t know, but I find the best further questions about it have been laid in a late Maynard-Smith book (along with E Szathmary): The Major Evolutionary Transitions. I think it’s a very entertaining book so there’s no reason not to buy it yourself if you’re into evolutionary biology anyway…
- where does meiosis take place in moss?
Within the capsule.
- names all plants bearing seeds and fruit?
If you’re not looking for a compiled list of plant species, then you’re probably willing to distinguish Angiosperms or Magnoliophyta (plants producing flowers) from Spermatophytes (or Phanerogams, that is, plants producing seeds)? The first is included within the latter, though actually the latter is a bit old fashion and refers to the great divisions among plants as formalized in classic botany, while the first is more modern and reflects more on phylogenetics, a serious trend in plant systematics today…
