Question
Chapter 22, Problem 5WIO
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The reason by which exclusive relationship between the plant and its pollinator benefit each partner.
Introduction:
Pollination is the process by which there is a transfer of pollen grains from an anther to a receptive stigma. The pollens are either carried by wind or insects. When the male gametophyte (pollen grains) are brought on stigma, then the pollen grains are made to travel through the pollen tube in order to reach the ovary and then fuse with the egg cell to carry out fertilization.

- What are the advantages and disadvantages of self and cross pollination? How are the structures of the pistil and stamen adapted for successful fertilization?arrow_forwardWhat is the difference between self-pollination and cross-pollination? If pollen is transferred from the stamens of a flower to the stigma of the very same flower, is that cross-pollination or self-pollination? If it is transferredfrom the stamen of one flower to the stigma of another flower on the very same plant? If it is transferred from the stamen of one flower to the stigma of another flower on a different plant, but a plant that is a clone of the first one? Animals do not have pollen, of course, but why is it that most animals never have to worry about the equivalent problem of self-fertilization? Why cannot most animals fertilize themselves?arrow_forwardMany flowers have both anthers and pistils. What prevents self-pollination and later self-fertilization?arrow_forward
- Many plants mimic other plants or other animals in order to attract pollinators. a) Describe one example of plants mimicking either other plants or other animals in order to attract pollinators. b) Why might these “cheating” strategies have evolved rather than developing “truthful” signals to attract a pollinator?arrow_forwardSuppose that 100 pollen grains land on a stigma, and 50 mature seeds are formed in the fruit. What does this indicate about the pollination process and success? A) 100% success: 100 pollen grains grew to 50 ovules, two to each, and double fertilization occurred. B) 100% success: Only 50% of the pollen grains germinated, but each produced 2 sperms to complete double fertilization in 50 seeds. C) 50% success: 50 sperm fertilized 50 eggs, and 50 sperm fused with 50 polar nuclei. D) 50% success: 50 sperm fertilized 50 eggs, and 50 sperm fused with 100 polar nuclei. correct answer and explanation why please.arrow_forwardName the agents by which cross pollination takes place.arrow_forward
