A)the process by which sunlight is turned into sugars within a plant
B)a part of a cell which has a particular function
C)a single-celled organism that has characteristics of both plants and animals D)another term for a moneran; a single-celled algae
E)using another for one's own benefit; having to do with an organism that draws benefit from another
C) a single-celled organism that has characteristics of both plants and animals.
To determine the two main categories of plants, we can assess the given options and select the appropriate ones.
1. Vascular: Vascular plants have specialized tissues called xylem and phloem, which help in the transportation of water, nutrients, and sugars throughout the plant. Examples of vascular plants include trees, flowers, and grasses.
2. Nonvascular: Nonvascular plants, also known as bryophytes, lack specialized tissues for conducting water and nutrients. They typically grow close to the ground and rely on direct absorption for survival. Examples of nonvascular plants include mosses, liverworts, and hornworts.
From the given options, it is clear that "vascular" and "nonvascular" are the two main categories of plants.
