Lab 2 Observations

On our hike, I came across a pine tree. Using OneZoom I was able to find out the pine belongs to the acrogymnospermae family, which is a type of seed plant. Seed plants fall into the euphyllophyta family, which is a kind of vascular plant. Here is a link to see it (https://www.onezoom.org/life/@Pinus=771683?img=best_any&anim=flight#x375,y309,w0.8506).
As well all the observed species in my group project are vascular plants, which means they all have lignified tissues for conducting water and minerals throughout the plant.
A unique adaptation found in one of my observations is the fact that the subtribe cenchrinae is a monocot, which means that the seeds of typically contain only one embryonic leaf.
