seeds are coming first or trees on the Earth?

Answer 1

Which came first, the chicken or the egg? Same question, same debate.

Answer 2

Trees came first by hundreds of millions of years. The first trees were giant lycopods and Equisetales that reproducd by spores not seeds.

Answer 3

Here's my answer from 2 weeks ago:
Depends on how you define seed and tree.
Plants that first evolved structure were sphenopsids; they used silica for structure, not lignin like modern trees. Their smaller descendants are horsetail ferns and scouring rushes--just imagine them 100 feet tall and you've got "trees" from the time of dinosaurs.
These plants are "fern allies" and reproduce by spores, not seeds--so the tree came first, unlike the chicken-and-egg where the egg came first (reptiles and amphibians evolved eggs before there were chickens).

Answer 4

Genesis 1:

11 And God said, "Let the earth put forth vegetation, plants yielding seed, and fruit trees bearing fruit in which is their seed, each according to its kind, upon the earth." And it was so. 12 The earth brought forth vegetation, plants yielding seed according to their own kinds, and trees bearing fruit in which is their seed, each according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.

There is your answer; plants were first.

Answer 5

Since when did a hokey mythology book become a scientific reference. I think Zeus made all the trees and realized the squirrels had nothing to eat so he made acorns....or was that Thor, or Shiva...so much mythology, I can't keep it straight.

Answer 6

God made the world.. he didn't plant seeds first..the seeds are how he had things duplicate itsself or in the case of Adam & Eve = themselves.

See That Wasn't So Hard??

GOOD LUCK
