Q 5. How are the criteria for deciding divisions in plants different from the criteria for deciding the subgroups among animals?
Criteria for dividing the plant include.
1- differentiation of the plant body.
2- distinct vascular tissues.
3- seed producing ability.
4- the seeds enclosed within fruits.
but the animals cannot be divided into groups on these criteria. This is because the basic designs of animals are very different from plants. they are divided based on their body structure.
