It teaches me that flowers can affect all you And animals in the world as a whole

# data[].attributes.body
#8-#10

# data[].attributes.body
It is very confusing in so many ways.

# data[].attributes.body
One question that i have is what topic or paragraph caught your eye by surprise?

# data[].attributes.body
I mean that plants have had this huge hand in the uprising of man that has completely disappeared.

# data[].attributes.body
Flowers are a huge part of the natural world and I feel like that what we're getting at, actually flowers are the natural nothing would be the same without them and I feel, no I know that this text is explaining just that. We rely on flowers and if we don't we did,but I don't see how you couldn't believe we don't rely on flowers

# data[].attributes.body
It teaches me how they entire world came to be and that we owe it tho flowers

# data[].attributes.body
Heidi you are correct that a flower cannot invent a flower but a flower can reproduce another flower Nathan might have meant it that way

# data[].attributes.body
This essay teaches me that plants are so resourceful and amazing. They make their own food, provide us food, produce/exhales oxygen for us, and is pretty self reliant. Wow why can't humans and people be that self reliant?

# data[].attributes.body
This essay tecached me the same thing that it teached Isabella, it teached me that without flowers we wouldn't be here because of the things it provides.

# data[].attributes.body
This teaches me that my relationship with flowers is bigger than I thought, as flowers helped amore developed organisms, like us, to survive.

# data[].attributes.body
It showed me a backround of evolution I have never seen before.

# data[].attributes.body
Isabella

This essay teaches me that because of flowers, humans were able to evolve into what we are now because the flowers allowed animals more nutrients as it says in 17.

# data[].attributes.body
Hedi is kind of right

# data[].attributes.body
That is true that a flower can not invent another flower but over time and evolution it was innovated into a better way of producing seeds. And the whole text isn't saying that there is no flowers through the whole thing it talked about that during the beginning but later in the e text it says things like "when the first flower bloomed on some raw upland late in the dinosaur age" paragraph #12

# data[].attributes.body
What does this essay teach you about your relationship to flowers and the natural world?

# data[].attributes.body
To many confusions... Your confusing me! Wait I'm confused

# data[].attributes.body
A flower can reproduce and evolve as it dose so which in a since is making a new flower

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with quin

# data[].attributes.body
Your explanation confuses me in many ways but I believe that you are confused, a flower cannot invent a flower

The text is telling us that there were no flowers "Everything was monotonously green." -6

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with Nathan because innovation does mean to modify an older product so that means that seeds were the modified version of plant reproduction.

# data[].attributes.body
He means that a flower is a new thing with new opertunity

# data[].attributes.body
What does a profound innovation mean?

# data[].attributes.body
The seed was an invention(naturally)

but the flower was the innovation to the world because of the things that it has provided for us with oxygen.

# data[].attributes.body
He says "innovation" which we all know means a addition to an older way or product. So right here he is saying that when flowers started producing flowers it was an adition to the way the world works

# data[].attributes.body
It says in paragraph 15 that " the ramaphacations of this biological invention were endless"

# data[].attributes.body
He ment that the flower was a brand new thing and with it came opertunity

# data[].attributes.body
An innovation, an improvement, flowers an improvement to the world, literally making the world a better place

# data[].attributes.body
Everyone can find the answer in 12.

# data[].attributes.body
I think he ment that there were all of these plant that keep re-inventing them selves.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, but the seeds were probably moved by animals and since there were a lot of birds, the chances were higher of a bird taking a seed and dropping it in a new place.

# data[].attributes.body
What did Eiseley mean when he wrote that the seeds that flowers make was a profound innovation in the world of life? It's in paragraph 12

# data[].attributes.body
In paragraph 19 it says that "reptiles and leather winged black imps had vanished when the planet grasslands were spreading. Only birds roamed the air now..."

# data[].attributes.body
If everyone looked at 15, he talks about how plants traveled. Think about how they traveled across the world by seed and having to figure out how to survive in those new ecosystems/ environments.

# data[].attributes.body
It says that in paragraph 13 that a lot of animals have to survive be eating the plants

# data[].attributes.body
As it said in 21 animals were being sustained in nututios grasses

# data[].attributes.body
It also says in paragraph 18 that literally "The explosion was having its affect on animal life also."

# data[].attributes.body
Isabella to Alaina

Did you mean thorns and not thrones?

# data[].attributes.body
Then good! Paragraph 18 talks all about how they are changed. I will pull a few examples.

# data[].attributes.body
I really liked your answer good word use

# data[].attributes.body
Altered means changed

# data[].attributes.body
Becaus of the plants lowering the tempature th animals either had to be warm-blooded or birds, not only did their climate change but if the tempature changes even slightly we know the drastic changes it can leave

# data[].attributes.body
The seed is made in the heart of the fruit

# data[].attributes.body
Idk if this has anything to do with it but in paragraph 18 it says that'ancient lizard birds had become strangely altered. I think altered means changed.

# data[].attributes.body
Flowers have adapted because of reproduction by producing pollen and creating mile or female reproductive systems. And animals have adapted by breathing the oxygen from the flowers and learning which ones they can and can not eat.

# data[].attributes.body
Flowers have adapted to reproduction, like the pine tree that had to reproduce differently from flowers. But to go further, animals evolved from the plants because before, there was only oxygen in the water, but when flowers started to pump oxygen into the air, animals could I've on land.

# data[].attributes.body
Plants have found ways to protect them selves like making shielding to protect themselves from plant eaters.

# data[].attributes.body
the animals adapt to the plants because some animals eat the plants and they have to adapt to the different types of plants and the ones that they can eat and thrones that they cannot eat

# data[].attributes.body
Because of the pollination and the fact of seeds being carried by wind plants have the ability to move around and cover a larger area of land

# data[].attributes.body
Animals adapted by having more oxygen and more food

# data[].attributes.body
They have more ways to trive and stuff

# data[].attributes.body
Flowers have adapted to many things, like the sun and the air. I think they have come a long way as getting the seeds far and giving bees pollen, (like attracting bees and animals and humans to pass/ shake the pollen everywhere)

# data[].attributes.body
The flowers had reproduction adaptions in transportation so they can move around by wind water and animals. In the text he talked about how the pod exploded and we did that mini project too.

# data[].attributes.body
As said the text said in 17 flowers brought an a amazing adaptability to add on to what Tyler said.

# data[].attributes.body
O

# data[].attributes.body
Based on this text what adaptations do flowers have because of reproduction? And to go further, what adaptations do animals have becacuse of flowers

# data[].attributes.body
No problem I don't know if I'm right though

# data[].attributes.body
Since when were we talking about reproduction?

# data[].attributes.body
How does the animals evolve in the text?

# data[].attributes.body
Thank you for explaining.

# data[].attributes.body
When I wrote bugs, I didn't only mean bees, as the text said bugs, so I did the same.

# data[].attributes.body
He said wooden cone flowes stretched everywhere in paragraph 6

# data[].attributes.body
Asexually I think

# data[].attributes.body
It could be that the plant had to adapt to its own enviroment.

# data[].attributes.body
No Brinley pine cone doesn't mean fake

# data[].attributes.body
Yes because he is saying the wooden cone flowers as they don't really act like normal flowers. So maybe not really fake but more a lesser flower

# data[].attributes.body
So you are saying that the bugs are bees

# data[].attributes.body
Wooden cone means fake?

# data[].attributes.body
They don't reproduce like flowers. That'so probably why it's important.

How do pine trees reproduce anyway?

# data[].attributes.body
I mean

Wait wooden CONE Means fake?

# data[].attributes.body
Please clarify

# data[].attributes.body
It's important because in the text it states that since there weren't many bugs in the area, the pine trees had to release it's pollen into the air.And to day many plants do the same in areas with little amount of bugs in the area.

# data[].attributes.body
I think it plays a part in where theses plants are found.

# data[].attributes.body
I do not think that trees have seeds IN them

# data[].attributes.body
Because as he said the "wooden cone flowers" meaning they are fake or impersonating seeds

# data[].attributes.body
Could you clarify?

# data[].attributes.body
He says that the trees stretched everywhere, but the flowers did not yet

# data[].attributes.body
FYI, pine trees do not have "real" seeds like flowering plants... so why is that important?

# data[].attributes.body
As he's aid in 14 the angiosperm actually means encased seed so I think that the spruce wood has encased wood inside the tree.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel like Eisley would not only bring up the fact of the spruce trees were able to survive such a harsh era, but also how the Foowers of today adapted and have made life easier on themselves

# data[].attributes.body
Paragraph 6 "inland the monotonous green of the pine and spruce forests with there primitive wooden cone flowers stretched everywhere. No grass hindered the fall of these naked seeds to earth".

# data[].attributes.body
I think that is how the spruce tree and the flowering plant started the same way. I was saying that they both started with a seed then grew into wa tree or a flowering plant

# data[].attributes.body
I think compared the two because they both played a huge part in the shaping of the world, but th two are also evolving.

# data[].attributes.body
It's a he

# data[].attributes.body
He would most likely say that the primitive plants don't have has advanced reproduction methods as the new and flowering plants.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that he could because they are actually very sommelier in what they produce for us.

# data[].attributes.body
How would Eiseley compare the life of a primivite plant like a spruce tree to the angiosperms (flowering plants)

# data[].attributes.body
I think he was sayin that they needed the plants to thrive off of

# data[].attributes.body
I think it's a bit of a bold claim. Like Heidi said, they weren't literally sitting around waiting for a flower. They probrally has less food, bees, air even since flowers give off that. I think they were having an era that prorally was fairly difficult

# data[].attributes.body
Because if u keep reading then u c how he said that they were waiting for what they were bringing into this word in 5.

# data[].attributes.body
I think he meant that they were not waiting, but the world was waiting for the flowers to make the world suitable for more advanced animals and reptiles.

# data[].attributes.body
She probably meant that they needed the flowers' nutrients, cooler climate, and for the primitive creatures to die off.

# data[].attributes.body
Rais is making good points about plants hand in our lives not just back then but in to days world with it being a food and fuel source.

# data[].attributes.body
I think she meant that without the flowers that the animals and Us wouldn't be here we would've all died out.

# data[].attributes.body
He ment that they were waiting to have the things that flowers brought to the world such as oxygen, new types of food, and a cooler climate

# data[].attributes.body
Well first we realize that Eisley wasn't litteraly saying that they just waited around for the Age Of Flowers but that the Age Of Flowers brought the change the mammals and birds needed in order for them to adapt

# data[].attributes.body
To back up my previous comment with evidence, in paragraph one it states that "It was the rise of flowering plants that provided tat energy and changed the nature of the living world."

# data[].attributes.body
What does Eiseley mean by, "They (birds and mammals) were just waiting for the Age of Flowers" in #5?

# data[].attributes.body
My evidence to back it up was in 14 about how she said that the flowers provided nutruiant food
