<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.

How is a fish different from a jellyfish?
Korvikt [17]

Jellyfish are forever but fish ain't.

Plus, jellyfish have those tentacle like things attached to thier body and you might confuse em for octopus for that very reason..

but you should really evade confusing em as an octopus cuz octopus might take it as an insult and the next thing you know will be a Kraken taking your house down.. which is pretty tragic :'(

Why dont plants photosynthesise in the dark
nignag [31]

Plants respire all the time, whether it is dark or light, because their cells need energy to stay alive. But they can only photosynthesize when they have light.

The oxidation of water occurs during photosynthetic electron transport during the light reactions of photosynthesis. In the absence of a source of light energy (dark reactions have no direct requirement for light energy), oxygen is not produced.
