Answer:

to produce eggs

Explanation:

The larger pinecone are the female cones of the plant. They are responsible for producing eggs.

The male cones are yellow, formed by numerous scales, with bags full of pollen, the female cones are greenish formed by scales in which there are uncovered eggs.

In their maturation, male cones or catkins release millions of pollen grains to the wind, which are transported by the wind and fall into the female cones, fertilizing the eggs. Fertilized, the female cone closes forming the pinecone, inside which are the pine nuts, the product of the fertilized eggs. At the end of a year or so, the pine cone opens and lets the pine nuts fall, which disperse in the wind until they fall in a suitable place for their germination.

Consider the models of cell reproduction. Evaluate the statements and select ALL that are NOT supported by the models.

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer and Explanation:

The cell division cycle is responsible for increasing and maintaining cell number and size. This cycle is an essential feature of living organisms. There are four phases of cell division mitotic phase (M phase), growth phase 1 (G1), growth phase 2 (G2), and synthesis phase (S). One phase of the cell cycle ends, and the other starts; this is named a phase transition—a unidirectional alteration in the cell cycle phases. During G1, G2, and S phase cell grows and during the M phase cell divides. There are two models of cell reproduction as the clock model and the domino model. The domino model implies that cell division phases must occur in a distinct order and at a definite time. The domino model recommends that the cell cycle events are independent, while the clock model shows that the effectiveness of mitosis entrance was not persuaded by other actions.
