Answer:

Cell of and integument

Explanation:

When flowering plants reproduce by sexual reproduction, they form seeds contained into fruits. The fruit is derived from the maturation of the flower's ovary (female part) after fertilization.

A mature seed contains three generations:

  1. a diploid embryo (the new sporophyte),
  2. The embryo is surrounded by haploid female gametophyte tissue that supplies nutrition
  3. All the above structure is in turn surrounded by the seed coat (diploid parental sporophyte tissue). The seed coat is produced by integument cells to protect the embryo during its development and before its can germinate. As it is produce by it parental plant, its ploidy level diploid.

In contrast, the generative nucleus and sperm cell are part of male gametophyte (pollen grain) and therefore haploids. Synergid cell is part of embryo sac, therefore belongs to female gametophyte and thus being haploid. Finally, cell of endosperm is usually derived from the fusion between a sperm cell and one of the two female gametes present within the embryo sac, thus being triploid.

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer: True because In biology, evolution is the change in the characteristics of a species over several generations and relies on the process of natural selection. The theory of evolution is based on the idea that all species? are related and gradually change over time.

When resources are limited, explain 4 ways by which lizard species on the Bahamas Island can coexist
aliina [53]

Answer:

Explanation:

Coexistence occur when individual occupying in a particular place are able survive with limited resources.

Dispersal - some of the lizard go hunting, they disperse themselves to various places to get resources.

Stability mechanism- this happen when individual stabilizes them selves in a particular habitat dealing with

environmental variations that may occur and drift them apart.

Equalizing mechanism - they all try to be at the same pace to avoid been out compete, even though some are stronger they equalize their energy for all to manage the limited resources.

The reactivity of an atom arises from
saw5 [17]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

For metals, the further away the valence electrons are from the nucleus, the higher the reactivity of the elements. Unlike halogens that are more reactive if the valence orbital shells are closer to the nucleus. This is due to ionization energies – which is the minimum energy required to discharge an electron from its orbit.

For metals this should be lower because they need to lose electrons to attain a stable electron configuration. For halogens it should be high because they don't need to lose electrons, but rather gain, in order to attain stable electron configuration.

Electrons in their orbital shells need to occur in pairs (with opposite quantum states) to be in stable configuration and as long as an atom has orbitals with single electrons, the atoms will be reactive as opposed to when its orbitals are ‘full’.
