In secondary succession, the pioneer species are plants that are adapted to exploit disturbances rather than bare rock. They typically include plants such as grasses, birch trees, and fireweed. Organic matter from the pioneer species improves the soil so other trees and plants can move into the area.
<u>Answer:</u>
Although statements are not given in the question, we could make the most possible deduction as follows:
The allele for purple flowers is dominant whereas allele for white flowers is recessive.
<u>Explanation:</u>
According to the question,
- Purple flower plant was crossed with white flower plant.
- All offsprings have purple flowers.
Here we have one possibility that both parents were homozygous but in their own traits. <u>Purple flower</u> plants were "PP" and white <u>flower plants</u> were "pp" So, the <u>first progeny</u> (direct offsprings) would have "Pp". So, as per considerations, purple is dominant allele which will mask the recessive allele thus defining the color of all offsprings as purple. However, further cross of their generation will definitely end up into purple and white flowers (3:1) but this condition is not mentioned in the statement.
Answer:
In this lab, you dissected a flower. The modified leaves that surround the reproductive parts are called petals. These structures help attract pollinators to the flower. The pistil is the female reproductive organ, which contains three segments: the stigma, style, and ovary.
Answer:
The independent variable is the underlying conditions (x-axis) and the dependent variable is the percentages (y-axis)
