Answer:

This would be an example of nonpoint source pollution.

Explanation:

The source of point source pollution is typically factories and powerplants, leading to more air and water transferred pollutants and becoming easier to track. Nonpoint source pollution is the opposite of point-source pollution, with pollutants being released in a wide area. Since the rainwater would be washing the oils and particles into the water, it would be considered runoff. Runoff is one of the leading causes of point source pollution. I hope this helps. ^_^

Choose the correct statements 1.Self-pollination occurs when the pollen from the anther is deposited on the stigma of the same f
Mamont248 [21]

Answer: The correct statements are 1 and 2:

1.Self-pollination occurs when the pollen from the anther is deposited on the stigma of the same flower, or another flower on the same plant.

2.Cross-pollination is the transfer of pollen from the anther of one flower to the stigma of another flower on a different individual of the same species.

Explanation:

Pollination is the transfer of pollen grains from an anthers to a receptive stigma. In most species of flowering plants, external agents bring about pollination. Also, flowers have evolved special structures and mechanisms to ensure successful pollination.

There are two types of pollination

--> Self pollination: This takes place when mature pollen grains from the anther of a flower fall on the stigma of the same flower or that of another flower on the same plant. This type of pollination brings the male gametes and egg cells of the same plant together. The resultant offspring show very little genetic variation.

--> Cross pollination: This occurs when mature pollen grains of a flower are transferred to the stigma of a flower of another plant of the same or closely related species. This brings the male gametes and egg cells of two different parent plants together. Therefore, there is greater genetic variation among the offspring.

What is the structure not present in early elephants?
Alexus [3.1K]
<span>It is a common misconception that elephants existed the same time as the dinosaurs did when in fact they have evolved 3 or 5 million years after these creatures.

The tusks of the elephant would probably be the structure not present in early elephants. It is only through evolution that these tusks grew. Some scientists have hypothesized that these tusks develop from the elephants' incisors.
