If evolution is true,?

Plants evolved from photosynthetic green or blue-green algae, which are classified (by most) as protists.

> "If evolution is true,? Where did the plants come from?"

From more primitive ancestors - the same as all other organisms on earth. Why?

> "Evolutionists talk a lot about animals, but did the plants come from the same pile of goo?"

Well - evolutionary botanists talk a lot about plants...

In fact, my wife did her PhD in Evolutionary Botanical Molecular Genetics.

And try reading a bit about what you are asking about before saying something like "life came from a pile of goo."

> "OK. So, where did the plants come from? You know, geraniums, ferns, roses, thorns, oats, peas, beans, corn, etc."

Here's a wikipedia antry on the volutionary history of plants. Enjoy:

I think you are making the classic mistake of lumping a lot of very different things together under the generalized term of evolution. What I think you are questioning is the beginning of life, which is not dissimilar to the "big bang" and similar theories that have nothing to do with evolution, but that postulate the beginning of life and the universe.

In my opinion, evolution does not address the beginning of life in some primordial soup. It is about change. All you have to do is to look at all the different varieties of cats, dogs, cows, beef cattle, vegetables, and fruits to see where man has actually and scientifically evolved one variety into another through selective breeding.

That is evolution and my father (who held a PhD in plant pathology) developed a variety of beet that was fungus resistant, thus making raising beets more productive. He likewise worked with broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower to increase yield per acre. This is all evolution, under the hands a man.

Yes. Bacterial colonies evolved into plants and animals. Many single celled eukaryotes contain mitochondria (which characterize animals, chloroplasts (which characterize plant cells), or both. Chloroplasts evolved from blue-green algae. Mitochodria evolved from the purple photosyntetic bacteria.

Of course, using a phase like "pile of goo" shows you've been fed Creationist lies. It is a fiction, that Creationists use in their campaign against education.

yes of course, plants are made of cells also, if you had taken any science classes you would know this. Though they don't reproduce in the same way they are still alive and have evolved. Do you really think thats natural home grown corn straight from the garden of eden you're eating? No its genetically engineered by splicing the best mutations together from other plants.

He did not say Planets he said Plants.

Yes evolutionist do fit in Plantlife.

Very early on one of the first divisions of life where those that made their own food through Photosynthesis, then some of them started to Eat each other. This is the origin of Plant and Animal Life. This division occured at the level of singlecelled Organisms.

All life evolved from a common ancestor, including plants. Plants and animals, along with fungi, are multicellular organisms, so we are more closely related to plants than we are to single-celled organisms like bacteria. We actually share more than 50% of our genes with plants, which shows how closely related we are.

basically yes, but you seem to very confused about evolution, and the concept of origins of life. The TOE is far more concerned about the former and not the latter.

the 'pile of goo' starts off with single cell life, some of them can turn light energy into useful energy, eventually some of the single cell organisms 'evolve' to be able to sustain themselves by eating other single cell organisms, eventually losing the ability to generate energy from the light. And so on, and so on, and ...

I am a evolutionist, but i found this video quite a conundrum check it out, it explains a little bit about bacterial organisms and how they Do not fit in with evolution

And For the people who think dinosaurs lived with man, even if i believed in god thats the stupidest thing i ever heard

Yes all life evolved from single cells. I suppose algae is a primitive form of plant life? Anyway, early dinosaurs didn't eat fruit, as fruit trees hadn't evolved.
