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

Biology

Serhud [2]3 years ago

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.

Answer the questions plz
exis [7]

Answer:

1) A double Helix with complementary bases in the middle. The backbone is made of sugar and phosphates. The middle is bases

2) To hold the genetic info for the cell

3) To bring the genetic info from the nucleus to the ribosomes as DNA can't leave the nucleus

4) To bring amino acids to the ribosomes to help build a protein

5) A chain of amino acids held together by peptide bonds

6) Ribosomes

7) Because those are the bases that are complementary in DNA so they must be equal

8) It could lead to a mutation as it would cause the mRNA to code for a different amino acid and thus a different protein will be made

9) DNA is the blueprint for mRNA which will travel to the ribosomes and code for specific amino acids which will eventually build a protein
