What is the difference between self-pollination and cross-pollination?

Biology
1 answer:
Serhud [2]3 years ago
5 0

The correct answer is that during cross-pollination the pollen grains are carried from one plant to another plant. During self-pollination, the pollen and ovules are from the same plant.

In self-pollination, the pollen from the anther is deposited on the same flower's stigma, or on the stigma of another flower of the similar plant. In comparison, out-crossing or cross-pollination results in greater genetic diversity as the pollen grains and ovules are obtained from different plants.

All the following are true of the movement of Earth's atmosphere except :
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

All  are true of the movement of Earth's atmosphere except :

d. Warm air is less dense than cool air so it tends to sink towards the Earth's Surface.

Explanation:

  • When gases heat up, their volume increases and  density decrease.
  • A decrease in density causes a substance to become lighter.
  • Thus, when air warms up due to heat from the sun its density decreases and it gets lighter.
  • So, it will move up.
  • The Cooler air in turn is denser and heavier so it will sink towards the Earth's surface.
  • Hence, the statement d , which states that 'warm air is less dense than cool air so in tends to sink towards the Earth's Surface' is FALSE.

melomori [17]
<h2>e) option is correct </h2>

Explanation:

Traveler's diarrhea is an intestinal infection that occurs as a result of eating or drinking contaminated food or water, food handlers who do not wash their hands after they use the bathroom can transmit the infection to people who consume the contaminated food

Due to diarrhea, kidney don't work properly and level of urea increases in blood

Due to the low carbohydrate intake, ketosis occurs in which stored fat is metabolized which results in build up of acids called ketones

If the body starts to use energy sources other than carbohydrates then it means it is using the stored energy, gluconeogenesis fulfills glucose requirement of cell by synthesis of glucose from non carbohydrate material

To supply with energy lipid metabolism occurs, fatty acids are oxidized and energy in the form of ATP is produced
