- CCASE Dashboard 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.arrow_forwardThe 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_forwardQuestion: ANSWER QUICK!!

Please assess the lowercase-Roman-numeral-labelled statements that appear immediately below and click the uppercase-letter-labelled response that appears below and conveys the most accurate information. i. If the pollinator-attraction hypothesis were correct, then green flowers surrounded by red flowers should receive more pollen than should green flowers surrounded by only green flowers. ii.

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.
