Plants make carbohydrates through the process of
photosynthesis. When the leaves of the plants absorb the sunlight, they use
this energy to combine water with carbon dioxide. The by-products of mixing carbon
dioxide and water are glucose and cellulose.
<span>Photosynthesis is a unique trait that separate
plants from other living organisms. They can provide the necessary nutrients to
help sustain themselves and survive for longer periods of time. When
carbohydrates are in excess, plants have the ability to store and use them when
one of the ingredients of photosynthesis is not available. </span>
Answer: Plants are cloned to produce identical plants quickly and economically.
It’s called a branch point, represents where a single lineage evolved into a distinct new one.
Answer:
d. Populations have the potential to grow to very large numbers
Explanation:
Natural selection and artificial selection both cause changes in animals and plants. However, the natural selection happens naturally, but selective breeding (artificial selection) only occurs by humans interventions. Natural selection has four components:
- Variation.
- Inheritance.
- High rate of population growth. In artificial selection, selection itself diminishes the probability of adaptation. But in natural selection populations have more offspring and have more chance to alive in struggling for local resources.
- Differential survival and reproduction.
