B) what is the effect of temperature on germinating peas?arrow_forwardIn some species, such as magnolia, sepals look like petals, and both are collectively called "tepals:' Suggest an extension to the ABC model that could hypothetically account for the origin of tepals.arrow_forwardEXPERIMENT 4: INDUCTION OF CALLUS SOMATIC EMBRYOGENESIS OF HAPLOID PLANTS Objective: To prepare anther as a source of explant To induce callus somatic embryogenesis of haploid plants Procedure: Cut off the buds and sort them into 3 developmental stages based on length of buds Surface sterilize the buds in 70% ethanol for 2-3 minutes, making sure the entire bud is immersed in the alcohol. Drain off excess alcohol from the buds and aseptically excise the anthers from each bud. Remove the filaments and culture the anther on one of the agar media provided. Label the stage of development of the bud on each petri dish as the anthers are cultured. Seal the Petri dishes with parafilm. Incubate in the dark at 26 to 28ºC for 4 to 8 weeks or until small plants can be seen growing out of the anthers. Then transfer to diffuse light. Record the results of the experiment in table form and submit the report. Observation: The culture was contaminated after 8 weeks of incubation…arrow_forward
- The drooping, bell-like flower Aquilegia canadensis is adapted for cross-pollination. However, if the plant has not been pollinated previously, self-pollination can occur. However, if cross pollination occurs after self-pollination takes place, the pollen from cross pollination reaches the style before the pollen from self-pollination. Using course concepts and vocabulary 1) Provide a reasoning for this phenomenon. 2) Would this adaptation for reproduction be beneficial for the plant?arrow_forwardEVOLUTION CONNECTION In general, light-sensitivegermination is more pronounced in small seeds compared withgermination of large seeds.

On the blank before the statement, write L for Lamarck, D for Darwin or B for both. 1) An organism directs its own adaptations because of an inborn urge to be perfect (that is, to be better suited to the environment). 2) Individuals do not evolve, but populations do. 3) Individuals in a population exhibit variation in their traits, such that no two individuals are exactly alike. 1 4) Many different kinds of living things are adapted to their environment. 5) Members of a population who are better adapted to the environment have higher chances of survival and reproduction. 6) Parents pass on their traits to their offspring.

- Biosynthesis of nectar and nutrient-rich pollen is energetically very expensive for a plant. Yet, plants funnel large amounts of energy into animal pollination. What are the evolutionary advantages that offset the cost of attracting animal pollinators?arrow_forwardPlease solve step by step THANKS! A researcher when studying insects of the genus Protenor, crossed females with normal wings and short antennae, with males with short wings and long antennae. In the first generation, he found that all insects had normal wings and long antennae; Therefore, when obtaining the second generation of a count of 460 insects, 50 presented short wings and short antennae; 135 with normal wings and short antennae; 165 with short wings and long antennae; and 465 with normal wings and long antennae. According to the information, determine:a) The genotype of the F1 and the parentsb) How many pairs of genes are involved in the crossc) How is the inheritance of these characters,d) Obtain the genotypic and phenotypic relationshipe) If the test cross is made, what genotypic and phenotypic relationship is expectedarrow_forward.
