AP BIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -These trees are able to grow to be so tall because they’re ancient and because they’re well adapted to their temperate, foggy climate.

Detailed explanation-2: -They are cone-bearing seed plants with vascular tissue. The coast redwoods, like most conifers, are evergreen. This means they retain their leaves throughout the year. Other conifers are deciduous trees that lose their leaves each autumn.

Detailed explanation-3: -All the groups of plants that include trees are vascular plants. This means they have vascular tissues called xylem and phloem. Xylem and phloem link all parts of the plant, transporting water, minerals and manufactured food around while also forming part of the structural support for plants.

Detailed explanation-4: -The vascular system consists of two conducting tissues, xylem and phloem; the former conducts water and the latter the products of photosynthesis. In the stems and roots the vascular tissues are arranged concentrically, on the order of a series of cylinders.
