Detailed explanation-1: -The first step was the development of mosses, followed by vascular plants ferns (and fern allies such as Lycopodium spp.). The next evolutionary step that took place was the development of cone-bearing plants (gymnosperms), and finally, flowering plants (angiosperms).
Detailed explanation-2: -Four major adaptations are found in all terrestrial plants: the alternation of generations, a sporangium in which the spores are formed, a gametangium that produces haploid cells, and apical meristem tissue in roots and shoots.
Detailed explanation-3: -The four principal lineages of living land plants are the hornworts, liverworts, mosses and the vascular plants. While the bryophytes, which comprise the first three, are superficially more similar to one another than to the vascular plants, this is largely because of their shared primitive characteristics.
