Observation: Trillium Grandiflorum (Large White Trillium). Eukaryote -> Plant -> Vascular Plant -> Liliopsida -> Liliales -> Melanthiaceae -> Birthroots/Trillium -> T. Grandiflorum. This is the phylogenetic makeup of the Large White Trillium, in decreasing taxonomic order from Domain to Species.
In our group, all the identified organisms are plants. One common adaptation between all species is the development/use of chlorophyll as a phytochemical in cell energy production. This chemical has allowed plants to become autotrophs, allowing for self-sustenance and energy conservation (being autotrophic) in the battle between predators.
Green Cheese Polypore (S. name: Niveoporofomes spraguei) has evolved over time to be a decomposer, meaning it feeds on non-living organic matter that is essentially "rotting". In the case of the green cheese polypore, it has the ability to excrete exoenzymes, which allow for rot to occur specifically on trees, enabling spore reproduction to occur easier (not picky in environment) and more effectively (organic matter always dies, which always provides nutrients to the fungus).
