Let me clear the differences between self and cross pollination:(Note the words in italics).
SELF POLLINATION | CROSS POLLINATION |
i.It is the transfer of pollen from anther to stigma of same flower or another flower on same plant . | i.It is the transfer of pollen from anther of one flower to stigma of another flower borne on different plant. |
ii.It does not require an external agent. | ii.It does require an external agent example wind,water,insects.. |
iii.Both anther and stigma mature at same time. | iii.Both anther and stigma mature at different time. |
iv.It can occur even when flower is closed. | iv.It occurs when the flower is open. |
v.It does not produce variation. | v.It produces variation. |
Option A and C are not correct as per the table.
Option D does not tell about self pollination though it is correct about cross pollination .
Option B states a major difference between self and cross pollination in terms of the pollinating agents.
Hence the correct answer is option B
8) What is the difference between cross- and self-fertilization? A) In cross-fertilization the pollen from one...
If I insert two nucleotides into a DNA sequence, what is the most likely mutation? O nonsense missense frameshift silent What is the difference between cross- and self-fertilization? In cross-fertilization insects are used to pollinate the plants, whereas in self- fertilization the investigator pollinates the plants. In self-fertilization the pollen from one plant is used to fertilize the egg from another plant. In cross-fertilization the pollen from one plant is used to fertilize the egg of another plant. In cross-fertilization...
7. Which of the following is seen in plants with self-fertilization? a. Each individual plant only produces either male or female flowers b. Male and female flowers are produced in different parts of the plant c. Male and female flowers are produced at different points in time d. Pollen tube is incompatible with stigma from the same plant e. Flower bud never opens, pollen flows directly to the stigma 8. Select one outcome that is NOT the result of the...
19. In a cross between a pure-breeding plant that produces tan lentils and a pure-breeding plant that produces gray lentils, all of the FI progeny plants produce brown lentils. When these are allowed to self-pollinate, the F2 plants are found to produce lentils in the following colors and ratios: F2 progeny: brown gray green tan 57 18 13 a. I poinl) What is the most likely phenotypic ratio being represented by the data above? b. (4 points) Prove (statistically) that...
What are the answers to those questions? Which of the following is a characteristic that is NO shared by gymnosperms and angiosperms? A) production of the male gametophyte within the pollen grain B) a female gametophyte that is retained within sporophyte tissue C) Production of both pollen and seeds D) Production of a triploid endosperm Which of the following cells has a different ploidy level from the rest? A) root cells of a flowering plant B) zygote C) cells of...
ws. Unless you need to edit it's safer to stay in Protected View Enable Editing Alternation of generations describes plant life cycles. There are ſhow many?) generations. • The gametophyte generation begins when the process of forms (ploidy) cells. The gametophyte generation ends when a (ploidy) _ is formed by the process of_ Figure 38.4 Alternation of generations: What are the two generations in the plant life cycle? What is the male gametophyte? Female? The microsporangium in the pollen sac....
A plant species X with n=5 chromosomes was crossed with a related species Y with n = 7 chromosomes. The F1 hybrids produced only a few pollen grains, which were used to fertilize the ovules of related species Z with n=7 chromosomes. A few plants were produced from this cross, and all had 19 chromosomes. The F1 hybrids (with 19 chromosomes) were mated with related species W with n=11 chromosomes. A few plants were produced from the cross and all...
31. How many different types of histones are found in the nucleosome that packages mitochondrial DNA? A) zero B) one C) two D) three E) four 32. The theory states that the ancestors of mitochondria and chloroplasts were free living bacteria A) phylogenetic B) endosymbiotic C) cell D) cytoplasmic inheritance E) old world 33. The presence of more than one variation of DNA in the organelles of a single cell is called: A) homoplasmy. B) heteroplasmy. C) hemiplasmy. D) pseudoplasmy....
In what way was the seed an important adaptation in the evolution of plants? Explain the difference between pollination and fertilization. How much time elapses between these two processes in pine? 1. 2. 3. Outline the main events of the pine life cycle. Where are the gametes produced? Where are the spores produced? What generations are independent? At what stage does dispersal occur? Make a table like the one below where you compare reproduction, dispersal, and protection of the zygote...
20. A "zony" is a cross between a female pony (2n=64) and a male zebra (2n = 44). Zonies are and have a normal lifespan but the different number of chromosomes between the two parent species means they are unable to produce offspring of their own. Zonies are an example of: hybrid inviability hybrid sterility hybrid breakdown autopolyploidy meiotic error 21. Which of the following would best be described as a case of speciation in sympatry? a. A population of...
R. C. Punnett conducted experiments on the inheritance of traits in the sweet pea, Lathyrus odoratus. In one experiment, he crossed two different true-breeding sweet pea plant strains, one with erect petals and long pollen, and the other with hooded petals and round pollen. All the offspring (F1F1 generation) had erect petals and long pollen (Figure 1). Figure 1. Sweet pea plant cross Next, Punnett allowed the F1F1 generation to self-fertilize and recorded the phenotypes of their offspring. The data...
