A flower can generate an embryo through self-fertilization. What statement best describes the process of self-fertilization in t

he flower?
A.

An egg produced by the ovary falls onto the anther, causing pollen on the anther to project a pollen tube. When the tube reaches the egg, the male gamete fertilizes the egg, which then falls to the petal.

B.

Pollen produced by the anther falls on the stigma, and projects a pollen tube that grows through the style. The pollen tube pierces an ovule in the ovary, and the male gamete fertilizes the egg of the ovule.

C.

An egg produced by the filament falls onto the stigma, and then travels down the style to the ovary. A male gamete from pollen in the ovary fertilizes the egg.

D.

Pollen produced by the stigma falls on the anther. The pollen travels down the filament until it reaches an ovule in the ovary, where the male gamete is fertilized.

Answer:

B.  

Explanation:

Self-fertilization is the process of fertlization in flowering plants in which same flower or plant produces both male and female gametes.In flowering plants pistil is called the female part containing stigma, style, ovary and ovule while stamen is the female part consisting anther and filament..

During self-fertilization in angiosperms, a pollen from anther (male organ) reaches stigma (part of female organ) of the same flower, and develops a pollen tube which direct to an ovule present in the ovary. The pollen grain the fertilises the egg in the ovule and produces and embryo in the same plant.

Hence, the correct option is B.

Name two types of evidence used to support the theory of evolution. Explain how scientists use each type of evidence to provide
TEA [102]
Evidence for evolution, in other words evidence of common descent, include fossils, which have shown a (fairly) steady change in morphology over time for some species. An example would be horse hooves: we have fossils that show when they were still three toed, then two toed, then one toe in our present day horses. Another piece of evidence is vestigial organs. An example of vestigial organs is wings in some flightless birds, such as the kiwi. Their ancestors used it in order to fly across the marine barrier into New Zealand, but natural selection and random genetic drift made them quickly lose the ability to fly. Nonetheless, they still have their wings, however small. It can be assumed that eventually, their wings would be reduced to small stubs fused to other nearby bones, as has been observed in their cousins.
