Typical paleobiological research attempts to answer biological questions using geological objects such as fossils found in the field. Paleobotany and the Evolution of Plants by Wilson N. Mineral nutrition, photosynthesis. The Biology and Evolution of Fossil Plants. It was the start of the age of mammals, and Africa was largely an For a continent so important for its role in the evolution of mammals, the scarcity of plant fossil data stands in sharp contrast. Palaeobotany is a diverse field in its own right, with a rich history and many gripping stories of how life evolved on earth, and among many other things it gives us crucial insight into the climate patterns of the past and their development. TITULO: Paleobotany: The Biology and Evolution of Fossil Plants. Brongniart´s "Histoire des vegetaux fossiles" (History of fossil plants) (1828-1838). While I admit that it's possible that I was snoozing during Biology 101 (and 201 and 301…) when it Given the apparent abundance of plant fossils you would think that it would be a fairly easy task to piece together the evolutionary tree (no pun intended) of at least a Zinnia, or a fern, or the Great Basin Bristlecone Pine.
