Get out of here with your angiospermnormativity
I’m pretty emotionally vulnerable rn if any botanists out there want to tell what the hell is cool about fern jizz
I studied biology and one thing I like about ferns is that they have these “dots” under their “leaves” that once mature drops a powder of spores that creates new ferns… Don’t ask me why I like it, I just do. I find it simple and to the point. You can simply leave a pot with earth under a fern and then you will find a baby developing there. Just like magic, and very elegant.
Guess I’m an anime now ✊😔 pray for me
I just spent 20 minutes trying to put anime eyes PNG on Kevin James but the internet is dead and you can no longer do that for free. You’re just going to have to imagine it based on the context
Wait here we go, this is the best I got. Fuck this gay earth
Not a botanist, but their tadpoles swim. Plants without this feature will relocate the sperm themselves.
e: As a result of learning this, I also learned that molluscs, arthropods, and vertebrates all evolved brains independently, and it’s actually normal for molluscs to have distributed brains rather than it being a neat quirk of a few examples. Arthropod brains are also more or less distributed depending on their specific needs.
Oh sick! Okay thanks for the fern facts. 👈😎👈
Fern blossoms are an inside joke of my culture. During summer solstice celebrations, young couples would go away from the rest of the group to look for fern blossoms.
this diagram feels like the type of knowledge that is so powerful that it is forbidden
Holy shit this was way too relevant to my interests lmao
GISS. Pronounced jizz.
I’m confused:
The main early Carboniferous plants were the Equisetales (horse-tails), Sphenophyllales (scrambling plants), Lycopodiales (club mosses), Lepidodendrales (scale trees), Filicales (ferns), Medullosales (informally included in the “seed ferns”, an assemblage of a number of early gymnosperm groups) and the Cordaitales.
The meme says those Carboniferous ferns are extinct and currently alive ferns are from the Cretaceous.
Edit: not all are extinct, just almost all… again, according to the meme, IANAB
