A gardener crosses two plants and observes that the offspring appear different from the parents. The diagram shows the plants. parents offspring Which statement supports this observation? O The plants reproduce asexually, and the offspring develop new genes with age. O The plants reproduce sexually, and the offspring exchange genes with each other. O The plants reproduce asexually, and the offspring receive all their genes from a single parent. O The plants reproduce sexually, and the offspring receive a unique combination of genes from both parents.

A single plant twice the size of others in the same populationsuddenly appears. Normally, plants of that species reproduceby self-fertilization and by cross-fertilization. Is this newgiant plant simply a variant, or could it be a new species? Howwould you determine which it is?
A bee visits a flower to collect food. Pollen from the flower sticks to the bee. The bee flies to another plant of the same species. Pollen from the first flower rubs off the bee and sticks to a flower on the second plant. The second flower produces seeds. Which is an advantage to reproducing this way? F The offspring will need time to grow and develop before they can reproduce. G The plant can reproduce without the time and energy required to find a mate. H The seeds the plant produces will be genetically diverse, so the offspring will be more likely to be able to grow in different environments. J The seeds the plant produces will be genetically identical, so the offspring will be more likely to be able to grow in the parent's environment.

Which type of life cycle has both a haploid and diploid multicellular stage?a. an asexual life cycleb. diploid-dominantc. haploid-dominantd. alternation of generations
T/F question The fertilization process in plants is a double fertilization process. Over 1/3 of the U.S. food supply comes from the cross-pollination process in plants. The plant hormone auxin inhibits the development of plant lateral roots. Abscisic acid hormone is responsible for the Fall shedding of leaves. Gibberelin is a plant gas hormone. Tropism in plants is a response to seasonal changes
You want to cultivate truffles for cooking. What is the problem with cultivating a species that only has an asexual lifecycle, assuming genetic variation is not a concern (explain your answer)?

Have you ever wondered why sibling sometim,es look so similar to each other or some times even so different?
Imagine a plant that has been well adapted to a particular habitat, and it has been reproducing only asexually; thus, all of its offspring are identical to it. If the climate or other conditions change such that the plant can no longer survive in the new conditions, what will happen to all of its offspring? Why?
