You have learned that the fusion of egg and sperm produces a zygote. But how does the sperm reach the egg, and how does the zygo

te develop into a seed, which eventually germinates and grows into a mature sporophyte? In this activity, you will demonstrate your understanding of double fertilization and seed development in angiosperms. Drag the statements to their appropriate locations on the flowchart of pollination, fertilization, and seed development.

Answer:

Pollen grain lands on stigma

Explanation:

A) Pollen grain lands on stigma

  • pollen tube grows down the style
  • generative cell divides, forming two sperm
  • two sperm are discharged to them female gametophyte
  • sperm fuse with the egg and two polar nuclei
  • zygote forms and divides into a terminal cell and a basal cell
  • cells of embryo differentiate into three tissue types---- seed dries out and becomes dormant.

B)

  1. During pollination, a pollen grain is transferred from an anther to a stigma. Once the pollen grain lands on a suitable stigma, it germinates and forms a pollen tube, a structure that grows down through the style to the ovary.
  2. Once in the pollen tube, the generative cell from the pollen grain divides by mitosis, forming two sperm. The sperm travel down the pollen tube and are discharged into the female gametophyte. In a process called double fertilization, one sperm fertilizes the egg, forming the zygote; the other sperm fuses with two polar nuclei in the female gametophyte, forming a triploid (3n) nucleus. The zygote develops into the plant embryo, and the triploid nucleus divides and gives rise to the endosperm. Double fertilization prevents the waste of the plant's resources by ensuring that the nutrient-rich endosperm only develops if the egg is fertilized.
  3. After double fertilization, the ovule starts to develop into a seed containing the plant embryo. As the embryo develops, the three tissue systems are established, and the cotyledons (seed leaves) form. The seeds of many species dry out as they mature. These dry seeds lie dormant until suitable germination conditions occur.

What is the importance of crossing-over?
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

b.It increases the likelihood that daughter cells contain different genetic material.

Explanation:

Morgan and Cattell for the first time used the term ‘crossing over’.  Crossing over takes place during prophase I of meiosis. During crossing over, chromosome segments of non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes get exchanged. As a result, the daughter cells acquire different genetic materials. Thus, it provides genetic variation by creating a new combination of genes or get recombination and produces hybrids.

When doing medical research with human subjects, which four limitations are un voidable?
viva [34]

The four limitations are

1.It's often impossible to repeat trials on the same subjects.

2-Subjects may report an inaccurate medical history.

3-It can be difficult to control all possible variables.

4-It's impossible to come up with testable scientific questions for human subjects.

Research involving human beings is ultimately necessary for improvements in human health and welfare. Any results about healthy physiology, illness causes, treatment effectiveness, learning, or behavior must be verified by carefully controlled investigations involving human participants. Sadly, not all human research have been valid and beneficial. It is possible to harm people in the name of research. The most well-known instances happened in Nazi Germany. Investigations conducted after the war found several crimes, including experiments in which participants were submerged in extremely cold water to determine how long it would take them to pass away from hypothermia.
