What is the evolutionary trend in the alternation of generation in plants? Elaborate on adaptive advantages of this trend.
Step by step
Solved in 3 steps
- What is the evolutionary trend in the alternation of generation in plants?What is the evolutionary trend in plant generation alternation? Expound on this trend's adaptive advantages.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?
- There are two alternative hypotheses about the life cycle of the early vascular plants, the transformation hypothesis and the interpolation hypothesis. If Rhynia and Sciadophyton are the two generations of one species, which hypothesis would be favored? Briefly describe the other 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.Question: 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?What is pollination? Why is pollination important? How this process influences flowering plant evolution?
- What is the evolutionary advantage for a flowering plant to be pollinated with pollen from a different individual plant (of the same species)?1 a) Describe the process of double-fertilization in this fireweed. b) What is the significance of this process in plant evolution?Under what conditions is it selectively advantageous for a plant to produce offspring identical to itself?
