Every insect pollinator is adapted to deliver the pollen from anther of the male flower to the stigma of the female flower.  

<h3><u> Explanation:</u></h3>

This adaptation is very essential in pollination of flowers. If new pollinators are used then the pollen will be delivered to the stigma of a different species which may lead to only cross pollination.

If this niche marketing of the flower to specific pollinators is not present then fruits of the same species will not form. Each plant species has a selective pollinators based on the floral scent.

Suppose the cell is a semiprmeable membrane. Which of the materials will NOT pass through it ?
Marina86 [1]

The membrane is selectively permeable because substances do not cross it indiscriminately. Some molecules, such as hydrocarbons and oxygen can cross the membrane. Many large molecules (such as glucose and other sugars) cannot. Water can pass through between the lipids.

1. What characteristics do the mountains in a mountain range have in common?
lesantik [10]

Answer:

Mountains are prominent landforms that have significant heights above sea level and/or the surrounding land. They are steeper than hills. A mountain or mountain range usually has a peak, which is a pointed top. Mountains have different climates than land at sea level and nearby flat land. Climate is the weather over an extended time period for a specific area. The climate of mountains tends to include colder weather, wetter weather, and thinner air. Thin air refers to the fact that at the higher altitudes of a mountain there is less oxygen to breathe. Also, mountains generally have less hospitable conditions for plants and animals. This leads to quite different evolutionary adaptations for those plants and animals that make higher elevations their home.
