Question

How are the criteria for deciding divisions in plants different from the criteria for deciding the subgroups among animals?​

Answer 1

Gymnosperms and Angiosperms are classified on the basis of visibility of seeds

Hence, morphological characteristics play a key role in plant classification. In animal classification, cytology is considered primarily as more minute structural variations are taken into account.

The cell layers, cytology, morphology are significant features to be considered in the classification of animals.

The presence and absence of various features decide the classification of higher hierarchies
