Why do you suppose plants and forests appeared in large numbers before large animals did? Several of the choices may be correct. Select the options you expect to be the strongest contributing factors. Choose one or more:
A. Plants had to change less to survive on land.
B. Animals need food, and there was none on land before plants.
C. The increased oxygen levels produced by land plants accelerated animal evolution.
D. The order was pure chance and could have gone either way.
E. Animals are more susceptible to radiation and needed more ozone in order to survive out of the water.
F. It was too cold for animals at first.
G. There was not enough oxygen for lungs to be effective before plants colonized land.
H. Plants were driven to land by scarce resources in the oceans, such as light and minerals.

It Might Be G im not to sure, sorry if im wrong

hydroxyl -oh

alcohols, always polar, can form hydrogen bonds with h2o molecules

carboxyl -cooh  

cargoxylic acids, has acidic properties which is a source of hydrogen ions, found in cells in ionized for with a charge of oh-1

carbonyl > co

ketone if within skeleton, aldehyde if group is at the end of skeleton, k & a may be structural isomers, it determines 2 sugars (ketose & aldose)

amino -nh2

amines, acts as a base, it can pick up h+ ions from surrounding solution, ionized with charge of 1+

methyl ch2

addition to rna/dna affects and gene expression

phosphate -opo3 ²⁻

organic phosphates, contributes to negative charge to, molecule that it is a part of, and potential to react with h20

sulfhydryl -sh

thiols, cross-linking stabilize the protein, and it is structure

the form of energy changes and the total energy increases0l
