Mesophytes - Plants with habitats that are neither too wet nor too dry
Xerophytes - Plants with very dry habitats
Hydrophytes are aquatic plants that may be free floating, fully submerged or partly submerged (amphibious) in water. The vascular tissue of hydrophytes is very poorly developed. Examples of hydrophytes are Ottelia, Sagittaria and Utricularia.
Mesophytes are plants that live in habitats that have a moderate supply of water (neither too wet nor too dry. Mesophytes are usually large, fast growing, and have well developed roots and leaves. Examples of mesophytes are clover and maize (corn).
Xerophytes are plants that are able to thrive with very dry habitats where the available soil water is low. Examples of xerophytes are Acacia and Carthamus.
decreases competition between members of the two different butterfly populations.
Explanation:
The choice of different habitats may be beneficial for the populations of butterflies since it enables to both groups to survive and reproduce without the need to compete for limited resources (in this case, the host plants)
The organism has haploid gametes. Human sex cells (egg and sperm cells) contain a single set of each chromosome, making them haploid. During fertilization, the organism acquires a set of chromosomes from each parent, making it a diploid (two sets of each chromosome) zygote.
