<h3>Small petals and sepals an advantage to these flowers:                                                                                                              </h3>
  • The flower petals and sepals are adaptations that attract pollinators.
  • Flowers that are 'pollinated by the wind' mostly have smaller sepals and petals as they do not have the need of attracting pollinators like insects, birds and bats.
  • In addition, it is possible that sepals and petals get in the track of pollen which might fly around in the wind. Also, it may "inhibit pollen" from "sticking" to the stigma.
  • Hence, wind pollinating plants comprise of small sepals and petals.

Describe the processes that turn metamorphic rock into igneous rock and the energy that powers the processes.
TiliK225 [7]

So, we know that a metamorphic rock is either an igneous or a sedimentary rock that are exposed to intense heat and pressure.

But when the metamorphic rock is thrusted deep underground through subduction, it will again be subjected to intense heat. This can cause it to melt, turning it into a magma. When the magma cools down, it again becomes an igneous rock and the rock cycle continues.
