Matrotrophy associated with vertebrates and especially mammals, matrotrophy is found in 21 of 34 animal phyla, and is fairly common in 11 of those. It has arisen independently in more than 150 clades within Chordata and in more than 140 clades amongst invertebrates. Matrotrophy Matrotrophy is a form of maternal care during embryo development. Some flowering plants supplied the developing embryos for the first stages. The ovule has no stocks and the nutrients are provided by the "mother". In plants, matrotrophy is considered a critical evolutionary development preceding the origin of embryophytes and therefore essential to the evolution of land plants.
Lattice of subgroups lattice of subgroups can sometimes be used to infer information about the original group, an idea that goes back to the work of . For instance, as Ore proved, a group is locally cyclic if and only if its lattice of subgroups is distributive. If additionally the lattice satisfies the ascending chain condition, then the group is cyclic. The groups whose lattice of subgroups is a complemented lattice are called complemented groups , and the groups whose lattice of subgroups are modular lattices are called Iwasawa groups or modular groups . Lattice-theoretic characterizations of this type also exist for solvable
