Answer:

It is a seeded vascular plant.

It does not depend on insect pollination.

Explanation:

The complete question is: <em>A scientist has discovered a new plant species in the Amazon rainforest. She tells her fellow scientists that the plant she has found produces a cone. What might they say about how this plant is different from an angiosperm? Its seeds have one or two cotyledons. Its stems' vascular bundles are scattered. It does not depend on insect pollination. It is a seeded vascular plant. </em>

<em />

<em>The correct option would be that the plant is a seeded vascular plant and does not depend on insect pollination.</em>

Gymnosperms are the only group of plants that produce cones. They are one of the plant groups that have vascular tissues in the form of xylem and phloem as well as been able to produce seed in the form fo cones. Hence, they are said to be seeded vascular plants.

Gymnosperms also carry out their pollination by relying solely on wind for the transfer of their pollen grain to the female organ. In other words, they do not depend on insect for pollination.

Question 1
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer: Question 1 answer: Skin cells continually replicate

Explanation: The cells in the superficial or upper layers of skin, known as the epidermis, are constantly replacing themselves. This process of renewal is basically exfoliation (shedding) of the epidermis. But the deeper layers of skin, called the dermis, do not go through this cellular turnover and so do not replace themselves.

Question 2 answer: Heart cells undergo terminal differentiation

Explanation: Different cell types (e.g., neurons, skeletal and heart myocytes, adipocytes, keratinocytes) undergo terminal differentiation, in which acquisition of specialized functions entails definitive withdrawal from the cell cycle.

Question 3 answer: DNA replicates in the nucleus

Explanation: DNA replication occurs in the cytoplasm of prokaryotes and in the nucleus of eukaryotes. Regardless of where DNA replication occurs, the basic process is the same. The structure of DNA lends itself easily to DNA replication.

Question 4 answer: The ability to reverse terminal differentiation might affect gene expression in a complex organism

Question 5 answer Cytoplasm replicates during mitosis

Explanation: This process involves replication of the cell's chromosomes, segregation of the copied DNA, and splitting of the parent cell's cytoplasm. ... The outcome of binary fission is two new cells that are identical to the original cell.
