Answer:

Double fertilization

Explanation:

The phenomenon of double fertilization is unique to flowering plants (i.e., angiosperms). Each pollen grain produces two male gametes (sperm cells), one of which fertilizes the egg to form the zygote, whereas the other sperm fuses with polar nuclei in the female gametophyte in order to form a triploid cell (3n) called endosperm. Subsequently, this endosperm will support embryonic growth by supplying storage nutrients and by serving as a mechanical barrier during seed development and germination.

A crop is treated with a pesticide and 98% of the insects are killed. what will most likely happen to the remaining insects?

Marina CMI [18]

The 2% of the insects will begin to reproduce and grow their population exponentially and in time enable the population to recover. This is if the population is large enough to enable random mating. The 98% reduction in population drastically reduces competition for the remaining individuals hence giving them abundant resources for them to thrive.

By using a genetic diagram or a punnett square, we can show the the result of a cross between RR and rr.
The result of the genotypes should all be Rr.
This means all their offsprings should have the dominant trait being expressed.
Therefore, the percentage to this should be 100%.
The picture above is an example of using a punnett square finding the possible genotypes of the offsprings.

How do the data relate to selective pressure and natural selection?

Explanation:

Selection pressure means factors that contribute to selection which variations will provide the individual with an increase chance of surviving over others. Because of selective pressures, organisms with certain phenotypes have an advantage when it comes to survival and reproduction. Over time, this leads to evolution.
