That would be A. Produces reproductive organs which produce a zygote.

Zygotes grow into the sporophyte(diploid), spores grow into the gametophyte(haploid).

Sporophyte produces haploid spores through meiosis, gametophyte produces gametes through mitosis.

what enviromental conditions do organisms need to provide the energy and nutrients necessary to perform life function?

Alina [70]

In order to survive, all living things need air, water, and food. Animals obtain their food from plants and other animals, which provides them with the energy they need to move and grow. An animal's home must provide these basic needs along with shelter from bad weather and predators.

Masteriza [31]

The answer is the ability to judge the location of tree branch.

Evolutionary tree represents a relationship between different group of organisms. Tree branches represent decedent groups while nodes are common ancestors of those decedent groups. This fossil skull could represent a new tree branch, so the paleontologist could judge its location.

Few seeds can be dispersed by more than one method of seed dispersal.’ Explain with suitable examples.

MrMuchimi

Answer:

There are five main modes of seed dispersal: gravity, wind, ballistic, water, and by animals. Some plants are serotinous and only disperse their seeds in response to an environmental stimulus.

Gravity: A good example of gravity dispersal is the marigold flower. When they are ready, these seeds drop to the ground.

Wind: There are two types of wind dispersal adaptations, the floaters, and the fliers:

(wind) Floaters: The common dandelion is a good example of this type of seed dispersal.

(wind) Fliers: Maple seeds grow in pairs, but when they are mature, they separate, and a strong wind can pull them from the stem

Ballistic: Some common examples of this type of dispersal are garden peas. When the cells grow older, the result is that the pods break open and twist. This twisting actions pops the seeds lose and pushes them away from the pod.

Water: Coconuts have a husk that surrounds the seed. This husk is very buoyant and a coconut seed can float across hundreds of miles of ocean before washing ashore on a new island to germinate and grow into a tree.

Animals: there are also two types of these, hitchhikers and edibles. Seeds that stick to the outside of animals, or are spread when they go out the other end after being eaten:

Hitchhikers: Some examples are cockleburs and foxtail.

Edibles: These seeds are surrounded by good tasting fruit, like apples and peaches.
