Question

Some plant seeds are adapted to develop only at extremely high temperatures. For what environmental change are these seeds most likely adapted? earthquake drought forest fire global warming

Answer 1

Answer:  forest fire

Explanation:

Forest fire is an ecological factor over which biological processes like seed dispersal and their germination is dependent upon. Some plants germinate under high temperature underground regions of the soil which is covered by the hot soil affected by the burning by the forest fire. Some of the coniferous trees like longpole pines have hard cone which exhibit the seeds. These cones exhibit the serotonin resins which are melted by the forests fire hence fire helps in dispersal of the seeds.  Other plants like Eucalyptus and Banksia are also dependent upon fire for seed dispersal.

Answer 2

forest fire because they only grow in extreme heat
