Reаd the аrticle belоw (ARTICLE M in the resоurces аddendum page) and answer the questiоns that follow. Land plants arose earlier than thought—and may have had a bigger impact on the evolution of animals We have land plants to thank for the oxygen we breathe. And now we have a better idea of when they took to land in the first place. While the oldest known fossils of land plants are 420 million years old, researchers have now determined that pond scum first made landfall almost 100 million years earlier. For decades biologists have been trying to come up with a reliable birth date for land plants. Some scientists have tried to use plant genetic data as "molecular clocks"—knowing a typical mutation rate, they can estimate how long ago various species split based upon their differences in DNA—to figure out their evolutionary history. But they have been unable to sort out the lowest, or earliest, branches of the plant family tree. At that base, vascular plants, came along sometime after liverworts, hornworts, and mosses. Yet the order in which those three other groups appeared has been a mystery and has stymied molecular clock studies. All the analyses indicate that land plants first appeared about 500 million years ago, during the Cambrian period, when the development of multicellular animal species took off. The new analysis "shows that the first land plants arose earlier than we thought, regardless of current uncertainties about which land plants evolved first," Lenton says. Donoghue's team has also applied its computer power toward resolving these uncertainties. Plant scientists once considered liverwort the most primitive existing plant because it lacks roots and pores for gas and water exchange, but a few recent studies had suggested that liverwort-like plants were not the earliest land plants. Donoghue now agrees. Liverworts are most closely related to mosses and once had roots and pores but lost those traits over time, his team reports this month in Current Biology. If Donoghue's results are right, "This changes the entire timeline for the origin of terrestrial life and the subsequent pace of evolutionary change in plants and associated animal (and fungal) groups," says Pamela Soltis, a plant evolutionary biologist at the University of Florida in Gainesville.
