Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Mosses are the earliest plants to evolve and develop terrestrial adaptations, followed by sword ferns, then pines. Maples are angiosperms and evolved much later than gymnosperms like pines, so they are not part of the evolutionary order of plants acquiring terrestrial adaptations. Therefore, option C (moss, sword fern, pine, and maple) is the correct order.
