Answer:

Triploid.

Explanation:

The ploidy of endosperm of a lily will be triploid because the pollen cells fuse with the cell present in the ovary which results into triploid. Each ovule receives two sperm cells to the embryo sac. One sperm fertilizes the egg cell, forming the diploid zygote or embryo, while the other sperm fertilizes the central cell produces endosperm that is usually triploid. This endosperm is the part of the seed which provides nutrients to the embryo during its growth.

Why might asexual reproduction typically result in local colonization, while the products of sexual reproduction are typically d
Lelu [443]

Answer:

(A) The variation resulting from meiosis and the union of gametes means some individuals will have a chance of colonizing diverse distant environments successfully.

(D) Vegetative propagation is more efficient than sexual reproduction when the current generation is well adapted to the local environment.

Explanation:

Sexual or asexual (options B and C) are not a "last ditch", it pretty much depends on the type of organism and its strategy for survival. There are thousands of organisms that can reproduce either sexually or asexually depending on the environmental conditions.

Option A. Genetic variability is important because sometimes the genetic variability produce during the sexual reproduction processes (crossing over, chromosomes assortment and DNA from 2 parents) can confer an organism the adaptability mechanism to thrive in different environments.

Option D. Since asexual reproduction delivers genetical equal organisms, the offspring is already adapted to local conditions and can colonize at a faster rate.
