Answer: A plateau is generally an elevated highland area, which ranges upto thousands of kilometers. They have a relatively flat terrain and they appear like a table-shape, and is formed due to the erosion of the sides as well as on the surface. For example, the Deccan plateau and the Shillong plateau.

These plateaus are formed in various ways, such as-

  1. The magma when rises up near the surface, gets cooled and the due to the lower temperature, they gets crystallized and forms a plateau.
  2. They also form because of the tectonic upliftment, where the areas gets lifted up due to compressional forces.

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

It is a seeded vascular plant.

It does not depend on insect pollination.

Explanation:

The complete question is: <em>A scientist has discovered a new plant species in the Amazon rainforest. She tells her fellow scientists that the plant she has found produces a cone. What might they say about how this plant is different from an angiosperm? Its seeds have one or two cotyledons. Its stems' vascular bundles are scattered. It does not depend on insect pollination. It is a seeded vascular plant. </em>

<em />

<em>The correct option would be that the plant is a seeded vascular plant and does not depend on insect pollination.</em>

Gymnosperms are the only group of plants that produce cones. They are one of the plant groups that have vascular tissues in the form of xylem and phloem as well as been able to produce seed in the form fo cones. Hence, they are said to be seeded vascular plants.

Gymnosperms also carry out their pollination by relying solely on wind for the transfer of their pollen grain to the female organ. In other words, they do not depend on insect for pollination.
