Answer:

This question is incomplete but the completed question is below

eeds that are planted upside down are still able to grow into mature plants. Which explanation best explains this phenomenon?

(a)The roots change into branches, and the branches turn into roots.

(b)The roots grow toward the force of gravity, and the shoots grow away.

(c)The plant will become a smaller version of a mature plant.

(d)Roots always grow toward the dark, and shoots grow toward the light.

Two options appear to be correct here: options B and D

Explanation:

Regardless of the direction the seed is planted, the seed has the ability to re-position itself via the help of growth hormones that respond to gravity and redirect the seed into the proper orientation. However, after re-orientation of the seed, the root grows toward the direction of gravity (a process known as gravitropism) while the shoot grows toward the direction of sunlight (a process known as phototropism). Even though two options appear to be correct here, the most correct option based on he question is b

ancestors of giraffes with shorter necks could not reach branches high up in trees for food. this led to selection for longer-ne
hichkok12 [17]

With shorter necks, giraffe ancestors could not reach food-containing branches on tall trees. This resulted in the directional selection of giraffes with longer necks.

 

<h3>Why is choosing a direction necessary? </h3>

It nearly appears obvious that the giraffe's long neck developed as a result of a lack of food in the lower branches of trees. The giraffe has a significant advantage because it is taller than any other mammal and can feed where few others can. 

When compared to modern giraffes, the giraffe's ancient predecessors had a shorter neck. The plants that were lying at a higher level were inaccessible to them. Giraffe phenotypes have changed in various ways, and now have long necks to reach vegetation that is higher up. The extreme form is chosen above other features in directional selection. It was decided to choose the long-necked giraffe over the short-necked.
