  • SBO2.a

    Construct an explanation based on evidence to compare nonvascular to vascular plants and seedless to seed plants.

  • SBO2.b

    Construct an argument based on evidence from traditional methods and emerging technologies (i.e., using physical characteristics and molecular evidences) to classify plants into major plant divisions.

  • SBO2.c

    Analyze and interpret data to develop models (i.e., cladograms and phylogenetic trees) based on patterns of common ancestry or convergence.
