True or False During seed germination, dormancy is the first step until the seeds are sown in a reach environment. Seeds of a fruit is the embryo in the Plant Kingdom. Sexual reproduction is the production of embryo while asexual reproduction entails to skip the development of embryo in the process. Zygote is the product of sexual reproduction that undergo months of development before the mother give birth to a young and alive offspring like humans. Embryonic development in both plant and animal means to undergo different stages that will give birth to a young and living organism.
Which of the following is true about the circulatory system(s) of a flowering plant? Group of answer choices The circulatory system is directly linked to gamete dispersal. There is no effect of environmental humidity on the movement of water and ions. The cells that transport water and ions are alive. Transpiration relies on evaporation and the cohesion and adhesion of water. There is a single system for the movement of water, ions and sugars.
