Vasoconstriction is an adaptation for survival because by restricting the blood flow to your “periphery” the more warm blood gets pumped to your vital organs keeping them alive, for example you might get frostbite on your fingers and toes because they are non essential, but your organs will be okay because the warm blood is keeping them from turning to ice. Humans adapted this way to survive in cold climates.

Answer:

<em>They will have a large number of genetic variations.</em>

Explanation:

Genetic variations arise due to sexual reproduction or due to the process of meiosis.  

Cross-pollination can be described as a process in which the pollen of one flower is transferred to another flower. The pollen when fertilizes the egg in the stigma, will produce offspring with varied genetic characteristics. This will be because the pollen would carry the trait of another flower and the egg of another flower. This will lead to many genetic variations.
