Answer: Seedless vascular plants can grow taller because they have tissues that support the plant and carry water and nutrients.
Explanation:
Seedless plants are those which lack seed production they have vascular system comprising of xylem and phloem tissues. These tissues help in conduction of water and nutrients from the soil this helps in growth of plants to larger sizes are compared to nonvascular plants that obtain water and minerals via diffusion with the moist soil so their growth is restricted as they do not have well developed vascular system. The example of seedless vascular plants are the ferns. The example of nonvascular plants are mosses.
The correct answer is C.
The zygote is a single fertilized egg cell that the embryo develops from.
This one cell possesses one copy of DNA that is going to be passed to all other cells in the embryo because all other cells of the embryo develop through mitotic divisions of the zygote.
Therefore, if a mutation happens in the zygote DNA, all of the cells in the embryo are going to have it as well.
The 7 (sometimes 8) characteristics of life are:
1. living things are composed of cells
2. living things have different levels of organization
3. living things metabolize (i.e. use energy)
4. living things respond to their environment
5. living things grow
6. living things reproduce
7. living things adapt to their environment
(some sources include) 8. living things have genetic material
Viruses do not metabolize, they do not grow, they do not adapt to their environment, and they cannot reproduce independently; viruses require host cells to reproduce and perform the other functions that give them the appearance of aliveness.
