Solved in 2 steps
- INTERPRET DATA Flower parts are arranged in four concentric circles: sepals, petals, stamens, and carpel. According to the ABC model of floral organ development in Arabidopsis, class A genes are needed to specify sepals, the A and B genes to specify petals, the B and C genes to specify stamens, and class C genes to specify the carpel. If a mutation occurs in one of the B genes, rendering it inactive, what will the resulting flowers consist of?Monoecious plants such as corn have either staminate or carpelate flowers. Knowing what you do about the molecular mechanisms of floral development, which of the following might explain the development of single-sex flowers? a. Expression of B-type genes in the presumptive carpel whorl will generate staminate flowers. b. Loss of A-type genes in the presumptive petal whorl will allow C-type and B-type genes to produce stamens instead of petals in that whorl. c. Restricting B-type gene expression to the presumptive petal whorl will generate carpelate flowers. d. All of the choices are correct.Suppose a flower had normal expression of genes A and Cand expression of gene B in all four whorls. Based on the ABChypothesis, what would be the structure of that flower, startingat the outermost whorl?(A) carpel-petal-petal-carpel(B) petal-petal-stamen-stamen(C) sepal-carpel-carpel-sepal(D) sepal-sepal-carpel-carpel
- Tom studies the floral identity genes. He found a mutant only develop flowers with two whorls of sepals and two whorls of carpels. Which may class(s) of floral homeotic genes be affected based on the ABC model? ______________. (A) A class genes (B) B class genes (C) C class genes (D) E class genesWhat types of flower structures would you expect to see in whorls 1 through 4 of a mutant plant that failed to produce both class A and class B gene products? a. Carpels, stamens, stamens, carpels b. Sepals, sepals, carpels, carpels c. Sepals, sepals, sepals, sepals d. Carpels, carpels, carpels, carpelsWhat are phase changes in plant development? What two groups of genes control the formation of the flower? What is the ABC hypothesis?
- Imagine that you are a member of a research group conducting research on fruit type and seed dispersal. Your group has submitted a paper to a peer-reviewed journal that addresses the factors that impact fruit type and seed dispersal mechanisms in plants of Central America. The editor of the journal communicates that your paper may be published if you make ‘minor revisions’ to the document. Why is seed dispersal important in the life of plants? What would be the consequences of having seeds that simply fell to the ground underneath the parent tree? Please be detailed as possibleIn most parts of the world, commercial potato crops are produced asexually by planting tubers. However, in some regions of the world, such as Southeast Asia and the Andes, some potatoes are grown from true seeds. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of growing potatoes from true seed.What is the evolutionary advantage of double fertilization? Why did it develop along with the evolution of the seed?
- Why is fertilization in flowering plants called double fertilization? two cells in the ovule are fertilized, the egg and the endosperm mother cell it takes the efforts of two flowers (male and female) to produce seeds two ovules must be fertilized to form a single seed one pollen grain fertilizes two ovules it takes two pollen grains to fertilize a single ovuleHumans have been selectively breeding corn for generations. During the process of domestication, the wild form of corn was eventually changed into a form that has more favorable traits. Early farmers most likely used corn seed that had – thin stalks to withstand stronger wind. a darker color so that they would blend with the field and be protected from predators. larger leaves that could be used for compost. the ability to grow in a large number of climates, soil types, and produced the largest amount of kernelsWhat will be the flower structure of a plant in which expression of the following genes is inhibited in the specified whorls? a. Expression of class B genes is inhibited in the second whorl, but not in the third whorl. b. Expression of class C genes is inhibited in the third whorl, but not in the fourth whorl. c. Expression of class A genes is inhibited in the first whorl, but not in the second whorl. d. Expression of class A genes is inhibited in the second whorl, but not in the first whorl.
