Questions and Answers

What is the main focus of phytomorphology?

  • The physical form and external structure of plants (correct)
  • The molecular processes involved in plant diversification
  • The internal structure of plants at a microscopic level
  • The comparison of structures in different species
  • How is morphology in plant morphology comparative?

  • It focuses on the molecular processes involved in determining plant morphologies
  • The morphologist examines structures in many different plants of the same or different species, then draws comparisons and formulates ideas about similarities (correct)
  • It investigates the conservation and diversification of plant morphologies at a molecular level
  • It studies the internal structure of plants at a microscopic level
  • What do homologous structures refer to?

  • Structures examined by plant anatomists at a microscopic level
  • Structures believed to exist and develop as a result of common, inherited genetic pathways (correct)
  • Structures resulting from molecular processes involved in determining plant diversification
  • Structures found in different species that serve similar functions
  • What is the overlap between plant morphology and plant anatomy?
