Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

Options for the question are -

A) Kittens develop new features, which help them survive better than the plant offspring.

B) Kittens change themselves according to the environment better than the plant offspring.

C) Kittens receive features from one parent but the plant offspring receives features from both parents.

D) Kittens receive features from both parents but the plant offspring receives features from a single parent.

Solutions -

In case of kitten, parents undergo sexual reproduction. In sexual reproduction two parents mate with each other to pass on their genes to the offspring. Sexual reproduction produces variations in the offspring. However, in asexual reproduction only one parent is involved and thus genetic material is contributed by only one parent due to which the offspring are look-alike of their parents.

the cat's ancestors' might have the features the kittens do, but not the mom.

if the plant only had one plant them it would have a higher chance of looking like it's parents.

same for the cat. the mother and father cats had more babies than the plant, so therefore the mother and father cat had to give mom genetics to all of the kittens but the plant didn't need to give as much of genetics as the momma cat.



sorry if this didn't help.

zheka24 [161]
This is a case of a hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with preserved ejection fraction. A hypertrophied left ventricle is a echocardiographic sign that there is chronic stress put in the left ventricle, most commonly in overcoming high aortic pressures in patients with systemic hypertension. In this case, there is normal chamber volume and normal ejection fraction therefore the heart is functionally normal and ejection fraction is preserved.
