Answer:
Meiosis is important because during sexual reproduction, it ensures that all produced organisms have the correct number of chromosomes. It is also responsible for producing genetic variations during the process of recombination, and it repairs some genetic defects.
The disadvantage from not having the trait normally arises only after the reproductive stage of the individual's lifecycle is mostly over. This is a special case of "no strong pressure", because evolution selects genes, not the organism. In other words the beneficial mutation does not alter the reproductive fitness.

Answer:
Plants need water and sun to create their food source, glucose. When the plant was left in the closet it didn't have access to the sun. One of the requirements of life is that all living things need energy/have a metabolism. Without food the plant eventually died.
